M/V Spirit of America

MV Spirit of America Staten Island ferry, New York

“MV Spirit of America” Staten Island Ferry
Upper New York Bay
New York, September 2008

“The third ferry, Spirit of America, was to be put into service on October 25, 2005, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the municipal takeover of the Staten Island Ferry from the B&O railroad. However, mechanical problems on the Molinari class ferries and legal proceedings kept it sidelined at the Staten Island Ferry's St. George maintenance facility until its maiden voyage on April 4, 2006.” (Staten Island Ferry, Wikipedia)

Listing a little to the starboard side, huh? Maybe we need to tell everyone to step to the port side. :-)
