Once a deep sea tug, always a deep sea tug, beautifull lines.
Any information of her owner / owners ? also any details of where she was converted.
would be nice to see some interior photos to see what she has inside.

Can you imagine the windage and pendulum effect of all that upper gear?

If I remember correctly the vessel is/was owned by a Canadian and there use to be a dividing screen in order that the Crew do not use the same Deck rest space as the Owner/ Charterer after she leaves Port. Crew Starboard side I believe(LOL)
