Samba - Spud Barge seen alongside Able Vulcan  Quay, Teesport, North East England on 17th February 2010.

I had to look up what a Spud Barge was :

"A spud barge is a vessel that uses heavy timber or pipe as a means by which to moor. The timber or pipe is located in a well at the bottom of the boat, and acts in the same function as would an anchor. Spud barges are riverboats that are most commonly used was work barges, or as a loading or unloading platform."
