Sailors have always put fierce images on their sails to intimidate their enemies:

… the Vikings

… and now—
… sailing forth to intimidate, at least, their brand’s enemies.

We passed the September Equinox earlier today—and so, Happy Fall, everyone!
(Or of course, in the Southern hemisphere, Happy Spring!)

Ah, the familiar first signs of Fall: the first crisp days and chilly nights, trees beginning to turn color here and there, migrating geese honking overhead…
And, of course, the Tugboat Race.
Every year on Labor Day Sunday, the Working Harbor Committee brings together, in the Hudson River off Midtown Manhattan, a collection of New York Harbor tugs—those that can spare a rare half-day off work—to engage in
various feats of tugboat strength: a race, nose-to-nose pushing contests, a line-throwing competition, and, for the kids as well as hyper-competitive tugboat captains, a spinach-eating contest.
We’ve attended the last three years, and written quite a bit about the occasion (in 2012, 2013, and 2014). So let’s go straight to the photos of this year’s event, the 23rd Annual Great North River Tugboat Race & Competition!

New York City architecture is ruled by rigid grids. But often the result is surprisingly fluid…
