Thanks, Kyle.  I am curious as to who owned her BEFORE Crowley.  There is a curious logo on her stack and another vessel at Marine Power & Equip.

Regards,
Robert (McDonald) in Port Townsend.

According to Equasis Robert, a previous owner was Tow Boat Services and Management, the logo looks to me like t b s in the enlarged photo of her stack.
