Vessel Description

POSIDONIA LEOPARD is a Brazilian-flagged azimuth stern drive (ASD) tugboat operated by Wilson Sons Rebocadores, one of Brazil's leading towage and maritime services companies. Built in 2017, the vessel is part of Wilson Sons' modern fleet of harbor and coastal tugs designed for ship-handling, escort, and berthing operations at Brazilian ports. The ASD configuration provides high maneuverability and significant bollard pull capability, making the vessel well suited for assisting large commercial vessels in confined port environments.
