Billy Shoepack is an alligator tug, belonging to the Salvage Fleet.
Interestingly, Billy's wheelhouse did not always move, nor did his facial expression change unlike any of the other characters. He was still described a bit of a goofball.
Billy's face was sculpted by modelmaker, Jeremy King. Who was formerly on TUGS' sister series Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends .
Trivia
- His model was sold to The Star Tugs Trust, and it is currently faceless.
