The new container ships are a spectacle & it is only when you the tug boat do you realise how enormous they truly are! I have had the pleasure on going on a tug boat & they not small either!

[@sarahhall738]

How long is a tug boat I wonder!

[@SMX815]

@@sarahhall738 they are at least 12 meters long & six meters wide - when I went on they are huge!

Another excellent and interesting video. I read on the Harwich Notice to Mariners that Siskin was carrying out dredging operations.

Thank you for watching.She might be dredging but gets in the way alot when trying to film/photograph.

I see that the tugs and that orange-trim work boat have foreign names; Zwundrecht and Svitzer. What's up with that, UK? Awesome capture as always, and thanks for posting. Cheers.
