Altre informazioni:
The Bermudan Tug Faithful, moored at Kings Wharf, Royal Naval Dockyard, Bermuda. The Bermudan Tug service service provides assistance to international shipping, particularly cruise ships, tankers and bulk carriers berthing and unberthing in local waters. Offshore towage and salvage assistance can also be provided as inshore tug scheduling allows. The department maintains three harbour tugs, with a limited offshore capability. The sister vessels Powerful and Faithful have a bollard pull of 40-tons and a third tug Edward M. Stowe has a 32-ton bollard pull. Bermuda has historically maintained a fleet of powerful tugs given our remote location and the potential for ship groundings on the outer reefs and in inshore channels.
