Saginaw River Passages - April 24th


Kathy Lynn downbound at the Lakes State Rail Bridge
Saturday morning on the Saginaw River saw the arrival of the Ryba Marine tug, Kathy Lynn, and a number of barges for the upper river dredging project. Kathy Lynn made two trips upriver on Saturday, taking equipment up to the Sargent dock in Saginaw to prepare for the start of dredging in early May. Later in the evening, the tug Joe Thompson and her barge Joseph H. Thompson called on the Saginaw River carrying a split load. The pair was lightering at the Bay City Wirt dock around 9pm, and was expected to be upbound for Saginaw to finish a few hours later. The tug Barbara Andrie and barge A-390 remained at the Dow chemical dock. The pair had arrived on April 18th and unloaded at the Bit-Mat dock.
