Brown are now in commission, and they form a valuable acquisition to the towing facilities of Sydney and Newcastle. The RoMlckor, wnlch’is tho largest, of tho trio, was the last boat placed la commission, and me has already done some .good .work in Sydney Harbor, and proved herself equal to all demands. The Edlicker has the distinction of being tho largest tugboat hi. tho Sou,them. Hemisphere, and during her short stay at Sydney she lias had many admirere. Looking sp-ie and span, with Captain M‘Nal> in command ,_ the Bob licker, which was speed-ally built for salvage work during too war, has a creditable war record j and as a tug -she made quite a reputation for herself when under the control of the Admiralty. A notable feat was the towing of one of the German interned st/samars—a 7,000-ton liner from th© Argentine to England at a speed of seven ioiots per hour. The other two tugs—-St. Claves and St. Giles—axe practically sister ships, and, though smaller than the Bodicker, are a useful typo for harbor and deep-sea, work. VESSELS IN WIRELESS CALL.
