The emergency response tug is one of two used by the Sydney Ports Corporation on Sydney Harbour. They are used for Incidents Response such as fire-fighting, oil spills, salvage and vessel assistance. The Tedd Noffs tug seen here is moored at the Operational Headquarters of the Sydney Ports Corporation at Millers Point. It's named after Reverand Tedd Noffs, an Australian humanitarian who pioneered initiatives for young people.

Fireman, rescuers... I have always lot of admiration for those hardcore occupations... Nice tribute to their work, Jim.

The boats orange and blue are for sea rescuers, and the white boat is from the "gandarmerie nationals" a french military corpse that deals with all kind of civilian problems as crimes, but also terrorism, drugs, immigration, etc. etc.
The colors are so nice! Great picture!
Good one.
Wow - that's some bright boat! Can't miss that in the water! Wonder reflections!
