Tug Show in Halifax

The four harbour tugs of Atlantic Towing Ltd put on quite a show this afternoon. They were off Halifax Shipyard to attend the launch of the new supplier Atlantic Condor. However at the appointed time the launch was postponed due to high winds. Nevertheless we were treated to some very skilled maneuvering, including spins, sidestepping, nose to nose, pinwheel and some water spraying.

With the launch rescheduled for tomorrow, may we expect another show (please?)

1. Atlantic Fir, Willow, Larch and Oak, four abreast.

2. Atlantic Oak gives a display of pumping.

3. All four tugs in attendance for the launch of Atlantic Condor.
