Proper Tugs, Crossley Engines. At least you could tell as to whether they were going Ahead or Astern unlike today's Tugs with their strange shaped Hulls and their multi functional Bridge Units. Crossley Two Strokes were a great little engine as long as they had a regular decoke, Heads off, Pistons and Conrods straight lift out, piston rings off, clean the piston and grooves, put it all back and off you go.
