Mike's: (
Satellite, a little north of Hartford)
I've been noting shipyards in Canada and other states so it is only fair that I note some shipyards in the state that I've lived in for half a century.
Mike's: I counted five floating drydocks and three cranes on barges.
National: I counted four floating drydocks and three cranes on barges.
It looks like they have an overhead crane that goes across a storage yard, through a building and out to the dock.
This was the posting that taught me to look for a shipyard in Hartford. I found National in that town and Mike's just upriver from Hartford.

Atlas (built 1962) just out of the shipyard at Hartford, Illinois after a total re-power. Getting close to put the old girl back to work!"

It must have three engines because it has three smokestacks and three throttles.
