U. S. Navy 88-foot Harbor Tug


Shortly after its keel was laid by the Industrial Department of the U. S. Naval Station, New Orleans, La. This is probably the keel of Harbor Tug No. 50, which was laid down immediately after the launch of Harbor Tug No. 48 on 21 November 1918. The stem and part of the sternpost have been erected on the keel.
