Tug and Campanile

One of a pair of tugs bringing a large container ship into the Harbour. (I was on the other one, it was cool!) They are amazing vessels, they look tiny here, dwarfed by the ship, but in fact they are not that small, and their propellors are interesting because they are multi-directional.
In the background, you can see another famous PE landmark, the campanile, a tall brick tower built in 1920 as the centenary monument to the 1820 Settlers.
