A 42-foot sailing vessel gets towed through the waters of the Chesapeake Bay to Cape Charles Harbor by a 45-foot Response Boat-Medium from Coast Guard Station Cape Charles, Virginia, June 16, 2019. The sailing vessel was previously adrift and disabled in the Chesapeake Bay shipping channel, which is part of our country’s Marine Transportation System that brings in $4.6 trillion of economic activity each year.
