Russian tug

[Robert J Smith]

Hi,

In 1972 I saw the Russian tug BK-1223

IMO 8930110, built as БК-1223 (BK-1223) in November of 1967 & renamed to Владимир Гридин (VLADIMIR GRIDIN) that month/year.
All I found.


All tugs of project 498 - http://fleetphoto.ru/models/1756/

Thanks Denis, that's all that I found as well, but that's where I got confused because I saw her in Sochi during April 1972 with name BK-1223 when she was apparently renamed in 1967.

Thanks for the links, google translate works well 

Regards

Bob
