2. Whitby follows.
No big tug news to report at the moment, but the small tugs are keeping busy in Halifax. McNally Marine's Carl M. and fleet mate Whitby continue to attend construction scows at the Halterm extension project.
Both tugs trace there existance to McNamara Construction, long defunct, builders of the orginal Halterm container terminal IN 1969-70.
Carl M. was built in 1957 by Russel-Hipwell in Owen Sound, ON as Louis M. She was renamed in 1975, and rates 465 bhp.
Whitby dates from 1978 and has 474 horses at her command. She was built by McNamara's own forces in her namesake port.
Both tugs are truckable, and their wheelhouses are removable.
