Found this; http://bertan.gipuzkoakultura.net/23/ing/17.php (http://bertan.gipuzkoakultura.net/23/ing/17.php) Your boats date seems to be 1878. There is also this: http://www.fdca.org.uk/pdf%20files/Caledon%20U.pdf (http://www.fdca.org.uk/pdf%20files/Caledon%20U.pdf)
The last one is an extract from the archives in Dundee. The Ugarte 1 was definately not a tug. She was built at Caledon Yards in Dundee for the wine trade (look closely, they are barrels not bales). It might be worthwhile give the archive a call as it seems they have some of Caledon's builders plans.

Ugarte:
Caledon Shipbuilding & engineering Co., Dundee.
Built 1876 for Ugarte Brothers, yard No 14.
Dimensions: 120' x 21' x 10'-81/2". I.H.P 177.
Dundee City Archives have virtually all the drawings of the vessels built at the yard plus other information. So I suggest that you contact them at the address below. they are very nice people who are willing to help in anyway possible.
