OK, a few questions if I may about your new acquisition? Age? On the Lakes or East Coast? Single or twin screw? HP required? Assuming wood, cardboard or paper would be out for construction? Price?

Check out his company, mostly canadian but some US boats.
Not looking to get into anything over 35 yrs old unless she can really blow her whistle. Twin screw and 2000-2100 HP. And not looking for anything over 75FT OAL or under 68ft. Must be a conventional style tug. And if you could find that in plastic that would be…Priceless!!
All I see is a single screw. But I’ll keep digging. Thanks for the tip.
plastic? A tug?

Thanks Skip. I appreciate it.
That 70 footer listed on the tmt site has potential. Thanks for the heads up.
I think you’d find it worthwhile to call Bob Beagle at Marcon. Bob might turn something up for you that is not formally listed.
I’ve got a few feelers out thru brokers I’ve used in the past. I’ll give Bob a call first thing tomorrow.
