old 2-cilinder tug boat 200624_0187.wav

First the voices of the fisherman in town. Then a modern pleasure yacht that sails past on the city river. Then the wonderful sound; The sound recording ripples a bit when after minute minutes a ‘pearl’ passes by in one. It is a tug from 1925 with a beautiful, slow two-cylinder engine. ‘The Triton’.
