A QUARTET OF TUGS
Tiny they may be but they're tough!
By Derek Longly
Tugs are fascinating.
They are small enough to go more or less anywhere, they can have lazy days when they just lay around snoozing and then at another time they can be seen pulling and pushing, straining at hawsers and generally throwing their minimal weight around as they move vessels far greater than themselves. They can certainly be described as workhorses of the maritime scene.
Here are four that have been employed in and around Newhaven, including our very own Meeching.
