DESCRIPTIONS

Accommodations & Layout

The Lord Nelson Victory Tugs have a long history of building very traditional looking tug boats for pleasure use.  Titan is a nice example of the popular 37' version.  Her pilothouse design offers good visibility forward, and her protected wide side decks ensure secure passage from bow to stern.

Atop the cabin is her traditional spar which doubles as a lift to raise and lower the dinghy, and there are chocks in place to keep the dinghy secure when not in use.  She also has some storage in this area for other items as well.

From the fantail, stepping down into the comfortable salon brings you in to a warm and inviting space with lots of beautiful woodwork throughout.  L-settee with table is to port with two separate chairs opposite to starboard.  The U-shaped galley is next which offers lots of counter space and a functional layout for preparing all of our favorite dishes.  Engine access is via a hidden compartment on the forward end of the galley, and it swings open and out of the way to provide access for service and maintenance.

Stepping up a few steps on the starboard side leads up to the comfortable pilothouse.  Offering commanding views, it makes for a great place to spend the day enjoying your cruising on the water.  Two side doors which open to each side deck, as well as opening windows make for a well-ventilated and easily accessible space too.

Continuing forward from the pilothouse leads you into the lower level which has a split head and shower in opposing compartments, along with a forward stateroom just beyond.  Good storage can be found for your wares throughout.
