    Magic Steve, a tug with a blast from the past.She was built for Jackson Marine Corporation of Texas.She was used for many years in the North Sea on Forties Field as well as others .I worked for the company that stored the Jackson Marine fleet (about 30 ships ) from a base in Peterhead inc deck/engines stores and food,24 hours a day 7 days a week.They had American,German and British Captains and engineers,no booze allowed on board,every vessel was imaculate,spick and span.Thanks for the happy memory Steve.
