Let the Games Begin!
Assembling the Fleet
Getting Ready to Race
Nellie raced against three other tugs. At 30 years old Nellie was the baby of the heat. The other tugs were steel and made in the 1940's and 1950's. We came in second, but only because two of the other tugs retired before reaching the finish line.

Tonight's Tug Parade of Lights
A reporter from CTV covered TugFest today. Nellie got some air time on the evening news. Here's the link.
We got away from the dock twice today and logged a whole 2 miles. With so many boats in close proximity, first for the races and again for the parade of lights, I'm happy to have made it back to the dock in one piece ;-) 1755 miles into the journey. DBH
