Tug Boats
Does your family’s car have a lot of horsepower? Nearly 7,000 horsepower?
Does it have the strength to stop another vehicle that outweighs it by over
100,000 tons? Can your vehicle spin on a dime? Tugboats such as those used
by Crowley Maritime in Puget Sound have all of these capabilities. Crowley
owns and operates some of the most advanced tugboats in the world!
Most of the things you use every day—clothes, computers, TVs, cars,
gasoline—are delivered by ships that require tugboats to assist them to dock
safely. Think of a bus trying to park in a crowded mall parking lot. Now imagine
that the pavement is continuously moving. That is what it is like for ships trying
to make deliveries. Experienced crews and strong, nimble tugboats keep our
local waters safe, and help get those important goods to the docks
so they can be delivered to local stores.
Scholarships at a variety of maritime academies and colleges and universities
across the country – including several on the West Coast— scholarships are
available through Crowley for students who will become our next generation
of leaders. Learn more at
