Good video content. Lot of tug videos I've seen were like watching a test pattern or security cam footage. I loved the pan and sweep of the view. I got the feeling of what a tug sees as it goes out for work.

low rpm = high torque.... beats crappy DD's anyday...

Great vid. That's what a real tug sounds like. Not some screamy oil pissing GM bitch. Real deal.
