Vessel Description

This vessel is an ASD (Azimuth Stern Drive) harbor and coastal tug operating under the Argentine flag. Built in Spain at the Astilleros Gondán shipyard in 2011, the vessel is part of the fleet operated by Compañía Argentina de Remolcadores, one of the principal towage and salvage operators in Argentina. The tug is designed for port assistance, escort towage, and berthing operations for larger vessels entering and departing Argentine ports. Its azimuth stern drive configuration provides high maneuverability and significant bollard pull, making it well suited for operations in the confined and tidal waters of the Río de la Plata and surrounding port areas.
