The water was run out
of the Old Dock, Leith in order to repair the tug after she had been
sunk a few days earlier. It was while her boiler was being
removed that a wheel on the crane collapsed causing the boiler
to fall through the bottom of the tug. Carpenter’s effected
repairs in the empty dock and once refloated she was taken to
Menzies graving dock for repair.
