But military vessel ... ?

The tug Abeille Flandre is not really a military vessel but she is always under order and used by French Navy.

It's not the thrue as she's not chartered by the Navy but by the French government and placed under the autority of the Prefet Maritime as Prime Minister representative.
Anyway it's not wrong to said that she's Coast Guard vessel as the AEM (Action de l'Etat en Mer) is internationaly reconnized as French Coast Guard. Of course Tug is also a good category but military is fully wrong. She owned and managed by the civilian Abeilles International.
From where did you take your pics ? following the alligment of the waterbreaks on some of your pics, it seems to be from the "sémaphore de Cépet"

Understood, I change the category for my pics of Abeille Flandre to Tugs.
And you're right, most of my pics are taken from Cépet signal station 8-)

Most of my pics are taken from the semaphore of Cépet (where I works) but none of them are from the road over the fuel tanks.
I have to use a very long lens, few times I used my own camera wich is better than the one we have at the signal station.
PS : I know very well the Sémaphore du Toulinguet, I were in Lanvéoc-Poulmic from January to June :-D
