Hi All

I am Gavin from the Garden Route in South Africa. I am in the process of planning a tug build. My idea is to build the "Salty" from Reliable Steam. Everything is still in the planning stages. The biggest problem is the availability of materials here. Everything will have to be made from scratch including the engine.
It appears that all of you are extrimely generous with your info and time , I think this is a good place to be.I have had a really good look at the thread posted by Ron and his tug. Ron, I salute you!!

Hi Gavin,

Welcome to the forum, and thank you for the compliment.

A lot of good Steamboat info here, if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

The Salty tug design is a good one, I'm really happy with it.
