RT Endeavour sailing for Hong Kong

The second tug of the next generation Rotortugs©, named RT Endeavour, recently sailed Hong Kong waters on her way from Cheoy Lee Shipyards Ltd to her new owner Elisabeth Ltd in Malta, who took over the vessel in Hong Kong. This Rotortug, exclusively designed by Robert Allan Ltd, is the second in the series of four on order with Cheoy Lee shipyards Ltd.

New benchmark in the high performance harbor and escort tug market

The new ART series sets the new industry benchmark and established itself in a firm position on the high performance harbor and escort tug markets. RT Endeavour combines high Bollard Pull over both working ends and superior steering force at all operational speeds with improved fuel economy and operational flexibility. Both in the indirect mode as well as in the direct mode performance is unmatched and built-in redundancy maximises operational safety. Her second to none maneuverability, performance and safe operations provide the preferred tug design at terminals and floating production – and storage units.
