Captain Jan Plug has been emailing his marine photographs to tug and OSV enthusiasts for years, and I am pleased to have been able to share many with visitors to this site and my previous one. He was captain of the new pipe laying vessel Seven Waves when it entered service and also when the pipe laying tower caught fire in Brazil. Now the ship is almost back in action as a new tower is installed in the Netherlands. Thanks Jan for this stunning  photo.
