Deadman-A tugboat (tug) is a boat that maneuvers vessels by pushing or towing them. Tugs move vessels that either should not move themselves, such as ships in a crowded harbor or a narrow canal, or those that cannot move by themselves, such as barges, disabled ships, log rafts, or oil platforms. Tugboats are powerful for their size and strongly built, and some are ocean-going. Some tugboats serve as icebreakers or salvage boats. Early tugboats had steam engines, but today most have diesel engines. Many tugboats have firefighting monitors, allowing them to assist in firefighting, especially in harbors.

The text above is from a wiki page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tugboat)

And a question remains in my head, why should a tug boat have assemblers and refinerys ??

Me-What does the definition of tugboat have to do with anything?, And its made as a starter ship

@scorpnoire. Yes. it has oxygen.

Does it have oxygen? If not, should one arc furncae be replaced by an Oxy-Gen.?

Wow i don't know whats so good about this ship but its one of my favorites great job.

I love the design of it but I can't seem to be able to build it with a projector.. might just be because I haven't messed with projectors before but I think it would do well as a starter ship for people who like to use the asteroids scenario.

ok fair enough, nice build btw !

@deadman Because, with all the lack of knowlegde I posses without shame, I found it a fitting name for his looks. And because I coudn't come up with a better one within the window that is my patience.
