RAzer Series

Model RAzer 2600-SD, 2900, 3000

High-performance z-drive ship-assist and tanker escort tug designs with an aft-biased layout, generous freeboard and a low, aft-positioned superstructure.

Description

The RAzer series is a further development of Robert Allan Ltd.'s high performance z-drive ship-assist and escort tugs, optimized for every aspect of ship handling and tanker escort service. Because of their aft-biased layout they are not generally recommended for towing from the stern.

Generous freeboard gives a high range of stability and strong indirect escort force capability, and the superstructure is kept low and well aft so the tug can work safely under the flare of ships. Designs are designated by length/bollard pull.
