ECM’s newbuild shallow draft utility tug ‘Pacific Titan’ has been delivered by HSS Shipyard.
Sea trials were completed late 2016, during which she performed beyond expectation, posting a LR-certified continuous static bollard pull figure of 31.6T at 100% MCR – impressive for a shallow draft design and especially for a vessel which is a first-of-type RHINOTUG 26-30.
She departed the shipyard early Feb 2017, bound for Brisbane, Australia towing a 180′ x 80′ deck cargo barge for a respected Australian client.
