Dutch Tugs 2

Arion is one of the smaller Iskes tugs, here towing City of Dubrovnik out toward the mouth aka Ijmond of the North Sea Canal. 

Aaron is the smallest of the fleet.

Friesland . . . built 1982.

Here’s another shot of Triton (farther) and Telstar (nearer).

Another shot of Triton, built 2008 in Turkey.

Pollux (Germany built in 1963) and Saturnus (Germany 1978).

Svitzer Svezia, Italy 1988.

PA 1 aka Castor looks like it could tow if equipment were added, but it’s actually an enforcement vessel.

And we end with a 1927 boat . . . aptly named . . . Obsessie.
