Watched this video and had instant pucker. These guys narrowly avoided disaster - the Eagle Service lost steering as it was pushing a fuel barge down through Hell's Gate to the east river and grounded in a tight spot. Needed a second tug to recover the barge. Outer hull was gashed, but no fuel leaked.

So were these guys skilled, or just lucky?
