North Rock tug
Today another fine morning to test out the North Rock a replica of a tug own by Alexander Towing Co. Ltd. haven't run in a while & I'd taken some parts out took a while to get it running on a even keel with some lead I had in my kit . The original tug was built in 1956 engine was 56 nominal horse power ( 1000 indicated horse power )

    A question on Horsepower; (as I have similar rating on my old Tug);

    re; "The original tug was built in 1956 engine was 56 nominal horse power ( 1000 indicated horse power )"

    What is the correlation between Nominal Horsepower and Indicated Horsepower?

    Thank You.

    I just used the information from a book page on the North Rock tug & I to have no idea what normal horsepower & indicated horse power are .😊.
