92 feet, 143 tons built 1944. Probably ex-USN. 31,000 gals. fuel cap.

A tug sank in Seattle today. (not mine!) :-)
Notice the fuel capacity- 31,000 gallons!
Even at the wholesale rate the tug company pays for fuel, I wouldn't be
shocked to learn that corresponds to a $50,000 - $60,000 "fillup".
Probably not. a newer 106' Tractor tug, carries 130k gallons. Twin Cats,
pumping out 2500HP. That equates to 90gph.
