Commercial Tugs (> 50 ft.) Built in Canada Since
WWII
Most recent
update: September 19, 2017.
There are
about 3,000 tugs in the Canadian Vessel Register but almost all of them are the very
small vessels used in the lumber industry. The cut-off value of 50 feet used in this table is a bit arbitrary
- it's designed to allow the table to focus on the boats built in waterfront shipyards
and boatyards rather than manufacturing facilities. In addition, the older boats are almost
impossible to track. If anyone has any corrections or additions to the table, please send them to
