Ship Shifting

This tugboat was waiting to help tow a large Naval ship from one spot to another. We watched the ship get pulled out into water open enough to pivot (under its own power) around and then three tugboats hugged its sides, guiding it into a new spot in the repair yard. The move took less than an hour. 
See Extra for that ship, I wanted to feature the tug in my post, because I really want a ride on a working one, especially if it's pushing a barge up the Columbia River.
