At the ferry terminal in Hyannis, MA, the port authority uses this Power Pusher to move all the luggage carts into the passenger ferries. 

 
At the Nantucket harbor, a couple of Coast Guard ships can be seen here resting when they're not patrolling the waters.

 
This is quite the boat launching system!

 
As soon as the ship docked, I took a shot of this nice looking jeep

 
If you're going on an automobile ferry, one of these will always be on one. This is one of the baggage tugs used by the Port Authority both on Nantucket and Hyannis.
