The TERI LOU

      "Teri can do it!"

      Tiny, terrific, Teri is an Army Sea Mule. At 500 hp, she draws 6 feet and is 37 feet long. Built in 1943, she has spent her years as a yard tug. Now her routine includes yard work and crew changes but also special assignments, like taking a fireworks barge up the Navisink for the July Fireworks Display.

      Dwarfed by larger tugs, she can get into places they can't.
