This is the story of a shy little tug that would become one of the most enduring of its kind on the Norwegian coast. With its 127 years in business is that of the super veteran. The history of the tug "Oscarsborg" is simultaneously a cavalcade of Norwegian shipping since the resurgence in the 1800s, and embraces many episodes from the country's extensive coastline. The author emphasizes that the state is responsible for the preservation of liquid monuments and points to new possibilities for protection and preservation of Norway's historic tonnage. Olaf T. Engvig is cand.philol. in seafaring history, officer training and skipper certificate. He has published numerous books and articles in several languages, and has for years been involved in the preservation of historic ships and boats. For this work he received St. Olav's Medal and H.
