Robert Allan Collaborates With

Washburn & Doughty

The first of a new class of high-perfor- mance tugs designed by Robert Allan of

Vancouver, B.C. for Wilmington Tugs, will be built by Washburn & Doughty of

East Boothbay, Maine. The new vessel will complement and expand Wilming- ton's advanced ship-handling services in the Delaware River region.

Designated as the ASD 25/55 Class, the vessels' design features a similar hull form to that of other Robert Allan designs. A partially raised forecastle and an elevated wheelhouse will ensure high visibility when the tug is called to han- dle large barges with high freeboard.

While its primary use will be as a day- boat, the tug will house overnight crew accommodations.

It is expected that the tug's perfor- mance will be 52 tons (114,650 lbs.) bp, with a free-running speed of 12.5 knots.
