In the fall of 87 the G tug Ohio lost is barge and it it the seawall. Not sure of the date(late 80's or early 90's) but the Lewis Wilson Foy(now Oglebay Norton)came close to hitting under the BWB. Getting out of the way of a power boater towing another vessel. I was there in 93 or 94 when a saltie hit the wall just south of the bridge I have pics somewhere. this last spring ( I think) a tug lost it's barge but that was down past the lightship. Hope this helps
