T.S.S. T/T Calshot

TSS T/T Calshot is a tug tender built in 1929 by John I Thornycroft & Co, and accomplished in 1930 for the Red Funnel Line.

Calshot is one of only three surviving classical tender ships which served the great ocean liners (another noted model is the SS Nomadic, which tendered the ill-destined RMS Titanic on her maiden voyage at Cherbourg, France. The third being the Manchester Ship Canal's Daniel Adamson).

During World War II she was requisitioned by the British Admiralty for servicing army ships and took part in D-Day.

She is a registered vessel of the National Historic Fleet of the United Kingdom, holding Certificate No. 1
