Tugboats (1/7)

A tugboat is a small sturdy and powerful vessel designed to push or tow other vessels and barges

Tenacious tugboat
Tenacious

You will see them in every sizable port; smart, businesslike small ships, low in the water and surging out to a large inbound ship. Tugs represent power for pushing and pulling, an engine with just enough hull for adequate buoyancy. Thick fenders for close-quarters work, pushing a big ship alongside the quay against the wind, hauling her off at the end of a towing wire.
