RT Endeavour Delivered in Hong Kong
Second ART 80-32 Rotortug delivered to Elisabeth Ltd.
RT Endeavour, the second of four Rotortugs on order with Cheoy Lee shipyards Ltd. and designed by Robert Allan Ltd., sailed Hong Kong waters Saturday, November 15, 2014 on her way from the build yard to her new owner Elisabeth Ltd., who took delivery of the vessel in Hong Kong.
The Rotortug distinguishes itself from the conventional ASD, Tractor or Voith Schneider designs by using a triangular propulsion configuration. The new ART series provides improved maneuverability for the harbor and escort tug markets and combines high bollard pull over both working ends and superior steering force at all operational speeds with improved fuel economy and operational flexibility, according to Rotortug B.V.
