Book Synopsis Tugboats on Puget Sound by : Chuck Fowler
Download or read book Tugboats on Puget Sound written by Chuck Fowler and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While square-rigged sailing ships, steamboats and ferries, and ever-larger cruise and cargo-carrying vessels have made their mark on Puget Sound's maritime history, no other vessels have captured the imagination of shore-bound seafarers like tugboats. Beginning in the 1850s when the first steam-powered tugboats arrived in the Sound from the East Coast via San Francisco, company owners and their crews competed fiercely for business, towing ships, log rafts, and barges. The magnetic attraction of powerful, tough tugs both large and small is unexplainable but enduring. This book, featuring about 200 rare historic images and carefully researched text, tells the colorful story of tug boating on Puget Sound.

Book Synopsis Tugs and Towage by : Michael Stammers
Download or read book Tugs and Towage written by Michael Stammers and published by Shire Publications. This book was released on 1989 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines the history of tugs from their inception at the beginning of the nineteenth century to the present day. A tug's main job is to tow other floating vessels. At first this was only in and out of docks and harbours. Now tugs have many more tasks including salvage, firefighting and pollution control. The biggest tugs are capable of handling huge floating structures such as oil-rigs on trans-ocean voyages. Towage, whatever the era, is difficult and dangerous and depends upon the skill of the tug crews. Their small size and attractive appearance make tugs popular subjects for preservation.
