BULLDOG TUG by SCHREIBER-BÖGEN with modifications

Hi.
Here I present my last paper work.
It is a port tug, charcoal steam, but I can not find the exact model.
The time should be first half or early twentieth century. I need help in two things and I would greatly appreciate any information about it.
1º ANCHORS
Does not have any sweeps under the deck (it has some catenary or mooring ropes, or a machine, and on the Internet you can see boats of this type that show what I say


If they should carry at least one anchor stowed in the starboard bow, which was maneuvered with rigging and bow davit.
What type of anchor for a sandy bottom of port; A DANFORTH ?.
Would this type of anchor correspond to the time?

2º For drag, would you carry a cable or a cable?
You can see in the photo of the model under construction, that the scuppers are not flush with the deck.

Afriend (who is very dangerous) pointed me without hesitation, as the one who pays a penalty
I had to dismantle all the reinforcements of the tacks and put a new cover (blessed photocopies!) And again lining internally the tacks, in addition to doing the reinforcements again (the paper is what it has)
The length is 40 cm and the scale I calculate that 1/70
The flags of signals, are sending a message.
Prize for the one who guesses (I do not know if they are well placed)
Missing the name on the pedestal
Materials used:
Cardboard; Paper, paperboard; threads; Painting, wire, acetate, painted and rounded wooden double blocks, felt-tip pens.
Signal lanterns with beads for the Chinese bracelet, "jamonera" cloth for front protection.
Oh, I forgot! A true spring from my ex Harley Davidson on the tow hook: roll:
Thanks for all
