Not every day you get the opportunity to move a piece of Canadian history.

Recently, Team Blue had the privilege of transporting a 1946, 13 ton logging tug built by Russel Brothers of Owen Sound, Ontario. This historic vessel had been sitting since the summer of 2018, and we were proud to help move it to begin its next chapter.

Built nearly 80 years ago, this tug represents an important part of Ontario’s logging and marine heritage. Projects like this remind us that we’re not just moving equipment, we’re helping preserve the stories and history that helped shape Northern Ontario.

A special thank you to OutdoorRob for documenting the move and sharing the journey with his viewers. He put together an excellent video showcasing both the history of the vessel and the work involved in relocating it.

I’d also like to recognize the crew who helped make this move a success. Thank you to Chris, Kyle, Kaiden, London, and Brandon for your professionalism, hard work, and dedication. These unique projects require teamwork, planning, and attention to detail, and this move would not have been possible without your efforts.

What an honour to help preserve a small piece of Ontario history.

We’ve seen great success with our new online dispatching platform. Not only has it streamlined the towing and recovery process for our customers, but it has also improved our customer survey system and communication from start to finish. 💙

The recent survey submissions have been incredible, and we truly appreciate everyone who has taken the time to provide feedback on their experience with Gary’s Towing.

From faster response coordination, to real time communication and smoother service updates, our goal is to continue modernizing the customer experience while still delivering the dependable 24/7 service Team Blue is known for.
