A peek at Lakehead Tugboats latest acquisition in Heddle Shipyards Dry Dock

 

After spending a couple weeks at Heddle Marine's Shipyard and Spa (former PASCOL) she's heading back to the base. She's had a name change from "Florence M" to "Florence" probably something to do with Witness Protection or maybe the fact that She's not owned by Mckeil Marine anymore . The change isn't big enough to raise superstitions of old Mariners about name changes and the demise of the ship. She's had a Makeover including a Bottom Enhancement , Tucks , Lifts 😍and is looking very handsome and will soon have her certificates to become an Earner for Lakehead Tugboats Inc. 😎
