This little tug, one of the Damen Stantug 1906 design tugs, arrived early on Wednesday with a barge belonging, like the tug herself, to Williams Shipping Marine Ltd. WILLPOWER, built in 1995 as DIAMANTE and later renamed KARIN S, came to the Southampton-based fleet in 2005, when she was given her current name. Twin screws give the 19.5 metre long vessel a bollard pull of 14 tonnes.
Being towed was the barge WILLCARRY 1500, built in 2002 in Russia, and which had been brought to the Clyde to carry steelwork modules from Renfrew to the Ferguson yard at Port Glasgow. In the distance HEBRIDEAN PRINCESS lies at anchor.
