This image of the 254 Gross Ton Harbour Tug Chale was captured in November 2010 when she was working in the Caribbean Port of Castries on the Island of St Lucia. She was built in the United Kingdom in 1962 by J I Thornycroft of Woolston Southampton and initially Registered in the UK. It is likely that she was employed as a Southampton Tug during her early years in service. It is always a pleasure for me to see British built vessels still in service many years after they were built. When I saw Chale she was already 45 years old and according to one Internet source she is still in service in 2022, at the age of 57 years.
