I didn't intend for this to happen, but as things worked out Adam and I have seen and photographed several towboats from good angles in the past 24 hours.

Our best photos are of the Capt. Bill Stewart, the Mark S., the Oliver C. Shearer, the Detroit and two unknown boats in the morning fog. We also go photos of the Enid Dibert, the J.B. Kleinpeter, the Mountain State (lightboat) and the Mary Ellen Jones.

I may post some photos here or on Flickr in the next day or two. There are a lot to sort through, plus I have some other obligations to take care of soon.
