Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ramsgate tugboats
This subject may be better covered in a wider-ranging article on the Ramsgate lifeboat. From the sources that I've looked at so far it seems that the primary use of the tugs was to assist with lifeboat rescues either by towing the lifeboat itself or by towing ships from the treacherous sandbanks in the area, such as the Goodwin Sands. Whatever happens this content should be |preserved in some form. I'm sure that the people shown in the lifeboat http://www.ramsgatelifeboat.org.uk/images/painting-hmm.jpg here (the tug is off-picture to the right - you can see the rope) thought the tug was notable! I'm sure that the Ramsgate lifeboat itself is notable, covering, as it does, the most dangerous part of Straits of Dover|the world's busiest shipping lane
