Ships Log
ships logbook At Tugboat Alley, we have had the pleasure of meeting tugboat personnel from all over the country. Tug Captains, Engineers, Deck hands and Pilots are frequent visitors and customers. We'd like to share with you some of their experiences, through interviews and photos.

Ships Log Index

Volume 1
: Our first Ship's Log is a visit with Shirley Holt, the President of Portsmouth, NH Pilots Association. Shirley and his brother operate the Moran Tugboats, the renowned red and black working tugboats, that bring ships up and down the Piscataqua River.

Volume 2: During the Summer of 1999, we participated in the 15th annual Tugboat Muster and Parade in Boston Harbor. It was a day to enjoy these giant workboats complete with a parade, contests, and festivities.

Volume 3: Our Winter 2000 trip to the Caribbean included tour of a bustling port city, the Port of Barbados, West Indies, aboard the "Pelican II", one of two tugboats the port operates.

Volume 4: We sponsored "Theodore Too"s special two-day visit to Portsmouth in the Summer of 2001. The life-size replica is based on the award-winning children's television series Theodore Tugboat.

Volume 5: Enjoy a Winter 2001 slide show of tugs that we have had the pleasure of boarding and visiting, or from photos that their owners and captains have shared with us.

Volume 6: Meet "Tug Alley Too", the Summer 2002 addition to our retail shop, Tugboat Alley, and online business, The Tugboat Store. "Tug Alley Too" is available for charter tours of the Piscataqua River for up to 6 people.

Volume 7: While on our Winter 2003 get-away, we spotted the "Lone Ranger", a former German working tugboat turned private, pleasure motor yacht, the ultimate fantasy for the tug enthusiast!
