TEESMAN Mick has posted his view of the Hessle-built OXCAR in Hull on 18 June 1978 at: viewtopic.php?f=67&t=7896
My own view of her while with Mick that day was restricted because I did not have telephoto lenses at that time:
Like Mick I did not record the various small craft, except for the tug to the left which was the PAMELA JOY. At that stage she had just been sold by Clyde Shipping (Tugs) Ltd., to Panama owners. She did not last much longer as during her delivery voyage from Hull to Kuwait on 14 July 1978 she put into Lisbon with fire damage. A week later she had an engine-room fire and sank in the River Tagus. She was raised on 17 August 1978 and sold for demolition at Setubal.
PAMELA JOY (5117066), Panama, 256gt,
completed A.& J.Inglis Ltd., Glasgow, 4-1958
1958 FLYING DIPPER - 1977 PAMELA JOY
fire in the River Tagus 21.7.78 & bu Setubal 8.78
Her life on the Clyde had equally not been incident free as on 18 October 1966 she sank following collision with the DORIC, subsequently raised 9 December 1966. This slide by Albert Weller shows her sunk, presumably shortly after the mishap: I also assume that it was during the same visit he photographed other tugs: The outside tug looks to be one of the 1951-built pair of either FLYING BUZZARD or FLYING MERLIN.
Inside looks to be a sister of the DIPPER, either FLYING DUCK (1957) or FLYING DRAKE (1958).
Annoyingly, I can't quite make out the name of this Steel & Bennie tug: Ron
