Welcome to Tuffy The Tug. Tuffy is a 1981, 26 foot hull number 011 Nordic Tug. Tuffy is named after the children's book, Tuffy The Tugboat. After 8 years of owning a wood Owens 1956 powerboat, Michael and Cynde decided it was time for a fiberglass boat so they would have more time on the water, and less time sanding and varnishing. Thus, Tuffy was born!

We regularly see pods of dolphins, blue whales, pilot whales on our crossings to Catalina. When the dolphins bow ride, it is a treat for sure.

I see you!

King of the World :-)

Tuffy at the Dana Point Harbor Christmas Parade, 2006. The theme was a "Yo Ho Ho Holiday" so we roped two fake pirates on the bow and the sign says the rest.
