Iceberg tourism in Newfoundland is growing, but now it appears, so is iceberg wrangling.
J. D. Irving Ltd. of New Brunswick, released this photo of two their ships getting into position to move the iceberg away from an offshore oil rig, off the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador.
The rope line had just been shot between the two vessels so they could move in unison to move the iceberg away.
To put it in perspective, one can see the crew members on deck in the foreground dwarfed by the size of the iceberg.
Atlantic Towing has ships based in Halifax, St. John’s and Saint John
