Converted steam turbine powered cargo vessel used as a training ship by the State University of New York. Photographed on a misty morning from the Gravesend ferry (the five minute ferry). We had just been on board to see the machinery spaces and bridge. Very peaceful standing on the bridge overlooking the river.
