As a child we have made a lot of trips with this tug. We sailed through Friesland, the Wadden and Ijselmeer. The name Anema is as you have aspected not right, it has to be Adema and the name Spes was given by the company Krikke from whom my dad had bought the tug in disrespectfull state. The engine, a scania 120 HP was installed by my father as well the PRM gearbox. it was a great tug and brings back a lot of memories when i see the photo's on internet. Although it has lost a lot of iron on the top.
Thanks for the memory!
