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.
Great shot! Not a small tug boat that I used to see. Happy weekend!

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.
