The steam tug Strongbow was built by Scott & Sons at Bowling, Greenock, in 1927. Registered at 197 tons gross and measuring 107 feet in length with a 24 foot beam, she was powered by a 2-cylinder compound engine by Aitchison & Blair. Ordered by Steel & Bennie Ltd. of Glasgow, she worked on the Clyde for over thirty years until sold to William Guy & Sons of Cardiff who renamed her Welsh Rose. Three years later she had been sold to a London owner who renamed her Lowgarth but she appears to have been scrapped by Wards at Briton Ferry in 1964.
