Oh yea...the RETRIEVER...good job, good times, great wood tug (YTB)...they are about gone now...I remember doing ship assists with this beast...imagine being in the engineroom of a wood tugboat while the mates and deckhands are "bending it to fit" with the winches...

I did harbor work in this boat back in the '80s. Almost got tripped pulling a ship stern first into port of Tacoma. Only wooden tug I ever worked on. The don't make like that any more (and I know why). (-:
I worked on the Retriever, and many of the old wood tugs at crowley. This photo is the one we used to put on t-shirts that we had made. Thanks for the note!
