Photo Day June 22nd

Our visit with Molly in Seattle included a ride on one of the tugs that Molly works on, these are big ocean going tugs 120 feet long, 35 feet wide, 5000+ horse power, 2 z drives, and carrying 170,000 gallons of fuel.

The bridge on these boats is really comfortable, well varnished teak, spotless stainless, and comfortable couches. The engine room is spotless, galley has every conceivable appliance and we are talking quality stuff. Freezers/refrigerators are top of the line Subzero/Wolf. The crew eat like kings.

Normally Molly does harbor work and drives the smaller tugs that haul barges of gravel and other bulk stuff, these tugs are smaller, this is one she works on regularly.
