Inverness, Caledonian Canal, Muirtown Locks. SCOT II was built as an ice breaking tug by Henry Robbs of Leith in 1931. She is of steel plate construction and has a Kelvin T8 diesel engine. SCOT II is a one off design and build and is thought to be the oldest ice breaking tug in Britain. The vessel was built for the Ministry of Transport for tug and ice breaking duties on the Caledonian Canal. She was then handed over to British Waterways who ran her until sold in 2005.
