"The Flying Buzzard is a 105 ft. ocean going steam tug and is the last surviving vessel of her type.  She was built in 1951 by Ferguson Brothers of Port Glasgow for the Clyde Shipping Co. of Greenock."

"In 2004 the Flying Buzzard was sold to Julie Jessop and Mike Nelder who are proceeding to refit and then take her to the west coast of Canada ... and a new era begins ..."
