{{Commons category|William Rest (tugboat, 1961)}}

The William Rest was a tugboat built for the Toronto Harbour Commission in 1961 for $150,000 CAD.[1]

She was built in Erieau, Ontario by the Erieau Shipbuilding and Drydock Limited.[2]

She displaced 61 gross tons.

She was named after the commission's recently deceased director of planning.[3][4]

Rest had worked for the Commission for 46 years.

She was powered by a Caterpillar 379D which could supply {{convert|560|hp|kW}}.[5]

In 1975 the tugs William Rest, the Lac Como, the G.W. Rogers and the Bagotville tried to free the lake freighter George M. Carl.[6]

The Toronto Harbour Commission occasionally employs the William Rest to break ice on the lower Don River.[7]

Port authorities retired the William Rest when they commissioned its replacement, the Iron Guppy, in the summer of 2016.[9][10]
