One of the toughest jobs on the river Tyne is that of the foyboatmen - the men who have to deal with the mooring of ships. Part of the proceedure is to meet the incoming vessels, " pick up" a lift and proceed upstream to the ships destination, where the task of " tying up" is completed.
The method of hooking on to the obliging vessel is pictured.
The ship pictured is the Robert Redhead.
