Design 377 110 Ocean Going Tug



This profile sketch is about as refined as this design was to get, back in 1940. The design was developed for the Dalzell Towing Company, a New York City based tug operator founded in 1851. The boat was not built.



I particularly like the engine selected for the design: an Alco-Sulzer 2-cycle diesel generating 1,800 hp. This engine was 28 long and weighed an astounding 128,000 lbs.
