An overcast day in the Tropical Tip; humid, but pleasantly into the upper 70s. While heading south in the Laguna, I heard the Securite' call: an incoming oil rig, being towed by 4 tugs. I motored down to the jetties area to watch it come in out of the foggy Gulf...
To get some perspective on the size of this thing, under that black arrow is a 50 foot fishing boat at the same distance as the forward tugs. Imagine pulling a 40 story highrise through the water and down the ship channel. Pretty impressive boat handling and coordination.
