VISITORS OUT OF THE FOG? IT’S NOT A SCI-FI THING, HONESTLY

Tug boat Anger Management and its barges sought safe harbor in Cedar Key this Tuesday morning, December 11, 2012, and met Police Chief Virgil Sandlin who directed its crew to proper dockage just off Dock Street. The tug, an impressively facile, quiet craft, found cables strained and snapping in the Gulf of Mexico storms on Monday night. Its Louisiana-initiated crew, destined for New York, will spend a day or two in Cedar Key while the weather subsides.

Anger Management drafts some six feet, its barges significantly less. The Louisiana- Cedar Key leg of its journey lasted approximately six days as the craft travels three knots an hour. The journey involves moving: south to Fort Myers; across Lake Okeechobee; to Stuart; north to Jacksonville and New York.
