Tugboat (Fallout 4)

A towboat is a vessel that maneuvers other vessels by means of a tow line.

Background
This type of boat was used by people before the Great War, generally in a commercial capacity. Towboats typically move vessels that either are restricted in their ability to maneuver on their own, such as ships in a crowded harbor or a narrow canal, or those that cannot move by themselves. They are powerful for their size and strongly built and can be both river and ocean-bound. Many towboats can be found throughout the wastelands of the former United States.

Fallout 4

 * Towboats of the Commonwealth are aesthetically different than those in the Mojave and Capital Wastelands. This different style appears throughout the waterways of Greater Boston, mostly in the Atlantic Ocean but also along the Charles River.
 * A towboat named the USS Riptide crashed into a bridge while carrying military equipment.
 * Libertalia, a ship graveyard that doubles as a raider encampment, features several towboats.
 * A towboat contains the generator needed to keep Spectacle Island free of mirelurks.

Fallout 76

 * In Appalachia, one towboat is located in New Gad and is beached permanently since Summersville Lake was drained when the nearby dam was destroyed causing the Christmas Flood.

Appearances
Towboats appear in Fallout 4 and Fallout 76.
