RE: 85 ft Harbor Tug/Angels Gate
If I am not wrong the tug in the first picture of the first post is a tug made with drawings by Francis Smith. That is why the large S on the stack. That plans were sold from an old model boat magazine that is out of business. It is also the first scratch built boat I made. My tug is 36" long as that was the plans scale. I am pretty sure the real tug was a 85 or 90 ft tug. It is an army tug or the or popular Despatch #9 tug.
I do know of a fiberglass maker that makes a kit of hull/deck/pilothouse/stack for $245. If you want his number PM me and I will send it to you. The hull length however is still only 36"
