Henry Marine Wants $6M for Ferry Rescue

According to a report in New York Newsday (www.newsday.com), Henry Marine Service has filed a suit seeking $6 million for the efforts of its tug Dorothy J. in corralling the Staten Island Ferry Andrew J. Barberi after it crashed in New York in mid-October. In the filing reported in Newsday, the company claims that its efforts to control the “imperiled” ferry and prevent passengers from jumping into the water justified the money.
