Gökçay II, the second RApport 1600-SX tug built by Sanmar Shipbuilders, was completed in August, the first vessel of this design being delivered in May. 

The two tugs are identical except the Gökçay II has a more conservative power rating of 600 hp at 1800 rpm for a bollard pull slightly over 16 tonnes.

These simple and economical tugs benefit from the latest design and construction technology for excellent performance and safety.

The particulars of the RApport 1600-SX are:

  • Length overall: 16.3 m
  • Breadth, moulded: 7.4 m
  • Depth, moulded: 3.3 m
  • Draft, navigational: 2.7 m
  • Fuel oil: 15 m3
  • Potable water: 2 m3
  • Crew 3 persons
  • Speed: 11 knots
  • Bollard Pull: 16.4 tonnes
  • Class: Bureau Veritas

The new RApport 1600-SX, designed exclusively for Sanmar Shipbuilders, is a safe, robust, and seaworthy tug ideal for general harbor duties. It meets all international and Class standards for construction and stability. The tugs are built to a very high standard of finish and available for quick delivery with details customized to the owner’s requirements.
