Kids need a Christmas tree, no matter where they are living. So a friend of this diesel tug's owner delivers a nice Christmas tree by using his rubber dinghy, apparently to the great delight of the ship owner's daughter. (The background picture was painted by Ralf's wife Heike Andrea Grote). This photo from Ralf was one of the entries in our recent 2003 Holiday Model Contest. You can see more of Ralf's modeling on his home page: http://home.t-online.de/home/US-Truck/index.htm
