Big Mac

Big Mac is Captain Star's second tug, who sports a distinctively broad Glaswegian accent. He is used for a variety of tasks around Bigg City Port. As of his strength, he often hauls heavy loads. Big Mac is based on the tugs of San Francisco waters from the 1920s.
==Biography==
===TUGS===
Big Mac's first appearance was in the first episode of TUGS, Sunshine. Since he was the strongest tug in the Star Fleet, Zorran asked Zip and Zug to put him out of action by stranding him on a mudbank, as a result allowing the Z-Stacks a chance for the Duchess contract. He was later rescued and looked for Sunshine. In the episode Pirate, Big Mac looked for who the thief was and defended Ten Cents when he was falsely accused of stealing barges.
In Trapped, Big Mac was trapped behind an old tramper by Zorran. He stayed there until Billy Shoepack came and blasted through the tramper. Then he along with the rest of the Star Fleet and Zug laughed at Zorran when he was trapped on some rocks. Later on in Regatta, Big Mac helped Top Hat, Ten Cents, and some other members of the Star Fleet save Grampus when he was going to be blown up in Navy practice by Bluenose. Afterwards, he enjoyed the Regatta parade. He had a minor appearance in the episode Munitions.
==Livery==
Big Mac is painted in the Star Fleet's corporate livery. This consists of a black hull, a yellow superstructure, white mast and an American flag-styled red white and blue funnel. His name is painted on the sides of his bow in white and he has the number "2" on his funnel. He wears a navy blue cap.
==Personality==
Big Mac can come across as a rude and stubborn tug, but he has a heart of gold, despite his tendencies to be gruff at times. He is very much willing to set aside his own safety for the sake of others, and usually remains level-headed when undergoing a strategy. Big Mac works mainly with his brother Warrior, and the two tugs have an extremely close friendship. Even though Warrior's clumsiness and simple thinking occasionally frustrate him, he still respects and cares for him. He also stands up for Warrior if anyone, especially the Z-Stacks, makes fun of him.
