...Hi Guys...

Confirmations are coming in from some of the major Tug Towing Clubs in Englandshire that they will be attending this event once again...It will be great to see you lads again...

So if you havent been to a Scottish Event before then this is the one for you...

The new Motorway Spur in Glasgow makes it a 2 minute drive from the M74 motorway to our club at Richmond Park...Come off at Junction 1A...

...Best Regards...Norry...

...Hi Guys...

Things are coming together nicely for this event in 2 weeks time...

Here are a couple of pictures of the Tow Vessels being made ready...

The large ship is the bulker PETER SHEPHERD for the 2 & 3 man teams and the smaller ship is the coaster RICHMOND for the single tow...
There will be lots of different barges available on the day for anyone who wants to have a go at Model Tug-Towing...

...Best Regards...Norry...

The refurb on the 2 main tows is now complete and they are both "Shining Like A Shilling" in readiness for the event in 7 days time...
Dont forget, There will be a Bring & Buy Table available at this event so if you have an unwanted boat or boat related item then bring it along and sell it to someone else...

My lad took this pic of the refurbished Peter Shepherd today, she looks great

She`s had 4 inches cut off her bottom, so should sit in the water a lot more realistically, can`t wait to see her in the water next week

Well done guys she's looking awesome.
Can't wait to suffer battery melt down towing her.

Roll on Sunday.
