I was slightly appalled by the fact that the site lacked drawings of tugboats(steam powered ones particularly) so I drew this up.

Massive funnel is massive. I can't imagine that would be very stable.

I have to admit that any clever wordplays are entirely incidental.

it is still an massive funnel, how bad must it have been before he fixed it? :P
also, he still can't tow much, because that blasted structure takes the place of the winch and towing gear. also, I have doubts about that underwater hull.
btw, if you miss tugs, look in the netherlands section :P

I agree, not many early 20th century tugs around but that funnel should be half the height it is currently

I have a nasty habit of drawing too tall of funnels.
