The 24m-long tugs, with a beam of 11m, will have a bollard pull of 70 tonnes and will be built to a design by Damen Gorinchem Shipyards, a company with which Wilson Sons in Brazil has worked closely for some 20 years. The vessels are due for delivery approximately 20 months after payment of the first instalments.
