Seaspan Adds Two More KTA38s

With a little over a month and several hundred hours on the KTA38 engines of the newly built Seaspan Tempest and Seaspan Venture, British Columbia’s largest towing company, Seaspan International has installed another pair of Cummins KTA38s in their 83-ft. (25.3-m) tug Seaspan Cavalier. The Cavalier is one of four in its class, the others are the Seaspan Cutlass, Seaspan Crusader and Seaspan Corsair. Built in 1975 at Vancouver Shipyards, the Cavalier returned to the same yard, an associated company with Seaspan, for the installation of the new engines.
