Ice Breakers
The Coast Guard Cutter Wire, a 65-foot icebreaking tug homeported in Saugerties, New York, makes its way through an ice flow in New York Harbor, January 28, 2004. As severe ice conditions still exist in the Northeast, Coast Guard ice breakers have been working continuously, keeping waterways open for maritime traffic. Picture taken January 28, 2004.
