Identity confirmed as 'Nancy Moran' by the due diligence of all, and with special thanks to Manfred for the crucial link and his dedication to solve the mystery.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Request for assistance to identify this Moran tug, seen
at New York in the mid 1960's, probably between 1964 and 1967.
In addition, can anyone pinpoint the location?
Scanned from a poor quality slide.

I have been studying various Moran tugs as suggested, but am no further forward.
I agree that 'Carol Moran' is a likely contender.

Funnel seems to be more narrow and the lifeboat & gantry are missing
