Sharing the "road"....New York City waterways offer little tolerance for unaware or careless boaters. That's an awful lot of barge moving at a steady pace...

Every boater knows not to pass between a tug and a barge (although some have tried). Depending upon conditions tow lines can exceed 1,000 feet in length and boaters need to be very aware in the dark of night. Long Island Sound sees it's share of commercial barge traffic at all hours of the day.
