Iver Foss (3) (tugboat)

The Iver Foss was built and outfitted by Main Iron Works of Houma, Louisiana in 1977. Her length was 98 feet with a 32 foot beam. She was the fourth in the series of five MAMO II class tugs ordered by Dillinham tug and Barke of Honolulu. The Foss Ocean Division had entered the East and Gulf Coast towing market when the Iver Foss was ready for service and she worked in the Gulf port area until late in 1978 when she came home to the Pacific Northwest to work on Puget Sound.
