Vessel Description
VB BRACO is a Spanish-flagged harbor tug operating under the Boluda Towage fleet, one of Europe's leading towage companies. Built in 1994, the vessel is employed primarily in port assistance operations, providing towage services to vessels entering and departing Spanish ports. As part of the Boluda Corporación Marítima group, VB BRACO operates within an extensive network of port towage services across Spain and beyond.
