⚓ Happy National (USA) Maritime Day! 🇺🇸

America’s waterways tell a remarkable story, from canals that helped build cities and expand trade, to inland navigation networks that continue to support transportation, industry, tourism, and recreation.

As we celebrate National Maritime Day, we also look ahead to the 2026 World Canals Conference in Guilin, China, where the international waterways community will gather to share ideas, preserve heritage, and explore the future of canals and inland navigation.

To everyone working on, along, and in support of our waterways, thank you.

Give way to tonnage!

When you see a tug and barge approaching:
⚓ Slow down
⚓ Move over
⚓ Give them room to navigate

And take a moment to appreciate the vital role marine transportation plays in moving goods and keeping our waterways working. 🌊🚢

The 2025 Tug of the Year, NYS Canal Corporation's Thomas X. Grasso and the 2006 Tug of the Year, New York State Marine Highway Transportation, LLC's Margot keep things moving on the Mohawk!

If you live along the banks of the Mohawk River, you might be familiar with The New York State Canal Corporation’s ice breaking efforts. WAMC spent a day aboard the organization’s newest ice breaking tool that’s keeping communities above water.
