At the port of Talcahuano, Chile.
Tug in port useless at the present time due to the earthquake and tsunami of the 27th of February of 2010.
This tug was under restoration works to be converted into a floating museum.
This tug was build in the year 1911 in Great Britain by H y C Grayson Shipbuilders & Enginners Ltda. in Liverpool England.
During the 80's she was still operative as a buoy tender.
Vessel affected by the tsunami, attempts to recover have been finished without any success .
