Bertha Updates

We have a few updates for you this week...  We're close to hitting the $5,000 mark on Bertha's Indiegogo's campaign.  Although we are a bit far from the overall goal, there is still lots of time left to go.  So please take a minute and share the link with your friends and networks.  Your help in spreading the word is much appreciated!

No news yet on getting an unrestricted copy of the NY1 interview to share - but it is in the works.

Our friend Will Van Dorp has written another beautiful photo essay.  Check out that essay here Bertha update on Tugster.

Also, we're received some more photos of Bertha from her time in NY Harbor from Eric Fischer.  Thanks Eric.  Here are a few of his Bertha shots...

And one more photo - Darren recently dug up Bertha's original plaque from her construction by Sir W.G. Armstrong Whitworth & Co, Newcastle on Tyne, England, in 1925!

More Photos of Bertha in NY Harbour

We received some great photos from friends of Tugboat Bertha over the last few weeks. Here are a few.  A big shout out to Lucie for pulling these together!  Please send your photos of Tugboat Bertha to: tugboatbertha@gmail.com

Since starting this campaign, we've received wonderful support from every one of you! Thank you for reaching out with your photos, financial support, ideas, articles, and for sharing your memories of Bertha! It means a lot. 

Will Van Dorp has jumped in to help us spread the word.  He's written a great article about Bertha and found some photos of Bertha we didn't have access to.  Check out Will's blog, tugster: a waterblog, and the Bertha stories here:
