THE SECOND of Shetland
Islands Council's new tugs for the port of Sullom Voe was
launched at the Union Naval shipyard, in Valencia, last
week.
The Bonxie will join her sister vessel Solan which was
launched at the same shipyard just before Christmas.
The two £7 million tugs with a bollard tow of 70 tonnes are
due to be delivered in March.
The vessel was constructed in such a manner that it will be
possible to operate her with a minimum level of three crew
in port. |
