Vessel Description

VB CONDOR is an ASD (Azimuth Stern Drive) harbor and coastal tug operating under the Boluda Towage fleet, one of Europe's leading towage companies. Built by the renowned Spanish shipbuilder Gondan Shipbuilders, the vessel is designed for high-performance harbor towage and escort operations. As part of the Boluda fleet, VB CONDOR operates under the characteristic "VB" (Van den Broeck / Boluda) naming convention adopted across the Boluda Towage international fleet. The vessel reflects modern tug design principles, offering high maneuverability through its azimuthing propulsion system, making it well suited for operations in confined port environments and coastal marine assistance tasks.
