Did the ship have tug escorts, and if not, why not?

Good question. Plus the bridge looked like it wasn’t either a good design or built cheesely or both. At least upgraded for bigger ships of the day.

I beleive the normal procedure in a U.S. port is to have tugs guide the ship between the berth and the channel. When the ship is in the main channel it operates under its own power.
