Marc, she worked in the Baltimore fleet for many years and went to Norfolk after her conversion to a Mortrac power to work the Navy contract as a tractor tug.

Thanks Dave. I guess I won't see the likes of her anymore. Used to be one of your Curtis Bay tugs quite a while ago?

Cheers,

Marc

Nice shot Marc, the tug has since relocated to the Moran fleet in Portsmouth, NH. The tug's nickname when she was first built was "dumb point", not enough rudder power for the amount of horsepower on the tug.
