Thanks for the pictures Jeroen.
I'm afraid that a lot of harbours will refuse "Tres Hombres" coming
in without an engine aboard.

They will probably use a small boat to push her when in harbor. Just
a guess.

Maybe the need tugs.

Joevan is right,

they use a small boat to push her when there's no wind to get into the
harbour. Otherwise they wait out the wind.

Regards,

Jeroen

Those small boats were called yawl boats in Maine.

I remember the Mary Day used one as she had no engine.


Can you sing that song, or is it a poem;-)

All I could find was this awful middy but it suggests a tune if you
want to try and sing it and post us a ditty of your lovely voice.

My voice is not the same as 45 years ago;-)
Anyway, thanks for the midi.
