Informazioni su questa barca

RusselBrothers built 38 Ville Class tugs for the Royal Canadian Navy during WWII many of these vessels served on both the West and East coastal waters.
After their service in the war many were sold for private enterprises.

Sine the hull is basically the same size on all these 38 Ville tugs I built one hull and made three different wheelhouses to represent three different tugboats currently operating in different locations of Canada.

Beamsville is owned and operated by Marcel Theriault working out of Tofino, B.C.

Loganville is owned and operated by Pete Spencer working out of Port Dover, on Lake Erie, Ontario, Canada

Miss Jenna is owned and operated by Kelley and Son working out of Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia, Canada

I have had the privilege of meeting all three owners, photographing each vessel and sailing aboard the Beamsville in the Tofino Harbour.

    Ronald, that is a really interesting tug! I love the fact that you built one hull and then created three different wheelhouses to represent actual Ville Class tugs. T
    he photos really show how much character these little boats have.

    Beautiful work, and thanks for sharing! 👍

    I love that you have essentially modeled 3 different tugs on one hull, by creating accurate wheelhouses representing the three boats.
    Very creative!
