Running Mates

This page is dedicated to the working companions of the tug. She worked with many other finely built craft during her 41 years of service, some of them still afloat. This page has been specifically developed so you can see them in action. My favourite was the Aucklander! (Ironically now in Wellington) If you have images, video footage or any other material please contact me as I would really like to expand this section of the site?
