Interesting pics , Thanks for posting . BTW , This tug spent the
winter tied up to the municipal pier here about 15 years ago . At the
time she was privately owned and no longer used for commercial towing
.
She left in the spring and I have not seen her since ..

last I could find, moved to Baltimore to be in a museum with
The SS JOHN W BROWN moved to pier 13, next to the NS SAVANNAH,
a CG buoy tender, and tug JOHN ARTHUR. (2015)

google earth images show a tug berthed at Pier 13 in 2014 and 2017
unmoved..

Interesting . That makes sense that she ended up with those other
boats because the owners did not have much money to keep the tug going
and were trying to start a foundation to bring in cash for the up
keep. I will be in Baltimore next month and will venture over to where
the Browm is and see what I can around there .


pier 13 is where the NS Savannah is the tug is on the other side of
the pier.
