About Us

On September 11, 2001 hundreds of thousands of people rushed to southern Manhattan to escape the devastation at the World Trade Center. Chronicled in the 2011 documentary film Boatlift, more than 500,000 people were evacuated across the water by New York Maritime Companies—the largest maritime evacuation in history. The evacuation of Manhattan by New York Maritime Operators was the largest Marine Evacuation in world history.

“It is the mission of the Tug & Barge Committee to promote and represent the interests of tug boat operators and harbor carriers in local issues relevant to the tug and barge industry in the New York/New Jersey Port area and approaches”
