Alligator Tug
Did you know that once upon a time there were alligators in Southern Ontario?
Now, one of those Simcoe-bred Alligator Tug Boats is back in the waters of the
Lynn River. The W.D. Stalker Alligator is moored to the east bank of the Lynn
River, south of Argyle Street. The Alligator fires up and travels around the Lynn
River 2 - 3 times per year. Check back often between May thru to October 2005
for dates and times. VHS and DVD's on sale for $20 - take home your own little
piece of the Aliigator Tug.
