26ft Tug

Design Number: 98-261

This tug was designed and used for log sorting/towing at a BC mill. Hull form is often referred to as a ‘pod’ boat which makes it fast and easy to build as well as capable of sitting on land (or a beach) upright, without external support.

The hull is computer lofted with corrected offsets. There are no NC files.

Drawings are in Imperial/US measure. Metric/SI not available

Notes:
