My Dad John Newby was her first skipper after she was delivered as new to Newport Screw Towing Co. in 1968
She had a black funnel then with three white rings.
Always looked a nice tug,it would be interesting to see what she looks like now, or maybe not!

No bollard pull needed now.

I know that. That´s correct!
But anyhow, the facts are historical. That´s why I include the Bollatd Pull.
