On my previous blog I mentioned that we spotted a tug boat on the south shore in the estuary at Bideford.

I have done a liitle reseach into this vessel.

She was built in 1959 by Henry Scarr of Hessle for the Thames in London, and was fitted with a 6 cyl 900bhp British Polar MN16 diesel engine. Speed 10 knots.

There are plans to turn her into a Tea Rooms!
