Steam tug Sea Monarch (Design 1085) A fine view of one of the few Design 1085 wood tugs soon after completion. Thomas Crowley sent Sea Monarch to Puget Sound to work for Cary-Davis, a tug company in which Crowley had a financial interest. This move initiated Crowley's presence in Puget Sound and the north Pacific, which became one of his towing company's largest markets. Photo No. None Source: Collection of Capt.
