BURRA will stay in Geelong, virtually un-manned, under the designated Emergency Towing Contract vessel.

Thanks Paul. The towage line from Svitzer goes back through Adsteam and Howard Smith back to the tugs operated by the Geelong Harbour Trust a long time ago (and I do remember those days . . .)

The "Millenial" tugs still have some life in them, and will probably pop up somewhere else

Cheers,
