The CGC Morro Bay leads tugs up the frozen Hudson River. One of nine in the 140-foot bay class, this cutter is used primarily for icebreaking duties in the Northeast and Great Lakes. Snow plow of the seas, the mighty tug is vital to keeping shipping lanes open for commercial traffic and fishing in winter.
