Smit Harbour Tug completed
The dio shows a rather weary-looking tugboat in drydock about to be refurbished. The workers aren´t actually doing anything at the time. In fact, their break is about to start, and they´re waiting for Henk. He´s been sent to the local Dirk (a Dutch supermarket chain) and has just appeared on the edge of the dock, with two of their typical red carrier bags about to burst at the seams.
I added some leftover figures to the unused slipway base, and will leave it as is for the time being.

Robert PodkońskiFantastically realistic (even with respect to the workers' attitude to their job 😉)

Bruce HuxtableYour little population gives this a whole extra level of interest for sure ?

SpanjaardA few trips to the rock, and the ref will certainly more of a chocolate color, so I think it accurate as well 😉

Frank SpahrThanks a lot! Well, Henk obviously is a returning customer, and one that values sustainability - hence his nicely matured and weathered carrier bags 😉

Frank SpahrI´ve added a few images of the other base I built, a slipway. Not having used it for the tug, I added some leftover figures to it and put it into a display box "as is" for the time being.

Duncan BlackSuperb, I can smell the diesel, oil and dirty dockyard water. You have created a masterpiece.

Ralf TopetersVery nice theme! The story is great, Henk from Dirk's. I really LMAOed. One of the rare ones without your famous water but still as good as anything else from you! Beautifull! 👍 👍 👍
