While it is said that you can’t judge a book by its cover, it’s also held that one CAN judge the overall health of a vessel by looking at its engine room.

Here’s one of ours after a great Winter’s work, aboard the PROVINCETOWN II, our oldest vessel.

Thanks go to Capt Fred, Zach, Ryan, Jack, Jamil, Conor, and Matt. Really good work.

Here’s a before-and-after of the MBTA owned vessel JOHN KEITH that we’re helping them operate and manage.

From NY Taxi Yellow to the MBTA livery - we thank our great Bay State skippers who tended to the KEITH’s detail work every day, the fine workers at Boston Marine Services, and the super graphics folks at Signature Signs; great people, all.

One down, three to go……

It’s New (to us) Boat Day at Bay State.

We launched and christened the EDWARD ROWE SNOW today, named after the old 1982 Bay State boat that we used to have in our fleet.

The SNOW will be used to support our Quincy and Winthrop work with the MBTA this Spring.

Thank you to the Bay State and Boston Marine Services crew for all the great work in getting the SNOW looking good and launched.

WHAT a sunset Tuesday night!

Thanks go to Capt Bobby for taking this shot while underway Tuesday night on our Encore-Long Wharf run.

Over and over, like Mary Oliver wrote, "the world offers itself to your imagination".......remarkable.
