The 2011 Great North River Tugboat Race & Competition
Official Results

It was a great day and a great race. The battle for Second and
Third place was a photo finish and Fourth and Fifth place was also
a nail brighter. We had a great turn out of spectators, not to mention
two dogs and a chicken! Thanks to all, especially the race committee, and all the volunteers!
