Largest New England tug Roger Williams launched at Warren
The 1004 foot Roger Williams tug, built by Blount yard, slid into Warren River on October 31 at 7:10 am amid a crowd of boat builders and officials. Eight-year-old Marion Mawan broke the champagne bottle for the launch ceremony. The tug will be commissioned into service by Providence Steamboat Co and later join other Blount yard vessels in the bay area.
