Here are Some of the Tugs you'll see churning up the wasters at Tingley Beach

The Dumas  Jersey City Railroad Tug built by Pat Tritle and reviewed for RC Boat Modeler magazine. The model is 36" long, and is powered by the Dumas High Torque motor with gear reduction and a 6 volt battery. The JC is a solid and stable runner.

The Dumas Lackawanna Coal Tug built by Pat Tritle. The 36" model was built bone stock and reviewed for RC Boat Modeler magazine. Powered by a direct drive High Torque 05 and a 6 volt battery, the Lackawanna not only looks great on the water, but runs great too.

The Dumas Shelley Foss Harbor Tug (left) was  built by VT Huelskamp. Lots of details were added to make a terrific looking model. But the real unique part of the SF is it's independent throttle controls that make the boat extremely maneuverable. And if that's not enough, there's also a functional water cannon, bow thruster and running lights. 
Scale: 1/30, LOA: 36 inches, Beam: 12.5 inches, Screws: Twin 2.3 inch 3-Bladed, Power: Twin Dumas 6Volt Direct Drive, ESC: Dual Associated AI Runner Reverse, Battery: Power Wheels 6Volt Lead Acid, Graupner Bow Thruster, Honda Fire Monitor Pump, Displacement: 30 Pounds

The 33"Model Slipways Wyeforce Harbor Tug (right) was built by Pat Tritle. Power comes from 2 geared 05's with an independent bow thruster. The Wyeforce also has a functional home-made water cannon build from a Honda windshield washer pump operated using a servo actuated micro switch and a 10 cell Ni-Cad battery.   

All scratch built design, the retrieval boat and Tug "in tow" were built by Ray, are being escorted by Fred Keulen

The Wendigo is a SCUBA dive and salvage platform designed and built by Pat Tritle, featured as a Construction Article in RC Boat Modeler magazine. This highly detailed 26" model of of primarily plastic construction using both Styrene and Expanded PVC (Sintra) plastic. The drive system is a single direct drive Speed 400 motor and 6, 1400 mah Ni-CD cells.

The  Ready to Run Imex New York Tug was detailed and weathered by Pat Tritle. The 33" long tug comes out of the box requiring less then an hour's time to make ready to run. After the initial couple of runs, I thought the model would look nicer with a few  details added as well as  a bit of weathering. As you can see, the results were well worth the effort.
