Hunting Creek (2011, 3000 hp) and my first view of her, not that I wouldn’t be able to predict what a Vane tug would look like.
Hunt Girls (1983, 1800 hp)
Coral Coast (1970, 3000 hp)
Buchanan 10, 1967, 1700 hp)
Thomas D. Witte (1961, 3000hp)
Linda G, 1943 and I have no idea how much power she generates, but that’s quite the tow she’s minding.

Will the Linda G. was towing an amphibious mud-cat crawler thing. The cats go around a pontoon, one on each side. The drill rig is bolted to the deck. It all comes apart and is truckable but oversize. We picked her up in the marshes under the Goethals Br on the SI side. The Linda is a great little boat, GM 871 and big rudder.
