The thug boat is small to be compared with a ship but its mighty

The major work of a thug boat is to lead a ship or vessels from high sea to berthing point of the ship then assist the ship to anchor


Once a ship wants to berth, it doesn't berth or pack right or straight due to its load, once the ship gets to its berthing stand, the thug boat pushes the ship in, to gain balance it does that by shifting or pushing the ship at the back and at the front side until it reaches the wall that demacates sea and land at the berthing point before the berth men will tire the cord of the ship to a solid stand already created

The purpose of the cord or rope is to hold the ship from waves movement incase there is heavy waves

Tug boats has always been fascinating. Pulling and berthing ship vessels of over 250m LOA with big draft.

Pilot X ray 1, I sight u last last.

Abeg who u be?

I actually use these to work in my kind of business. They are fitted with two powerful 500hp × 2 engines.


They are deployed to help big vessels in berthing in alongside positions.

They are also designed to tow barges conveying equipment/materials to offshore locations.

Engineering is beautiful...the other day i was viewing a documentry on how jets are manufacturered from start to finish it was really amazing...

Its quite unfortunate that this country nigeria does not encourage manufacturing and production.
Certain policies and right implementations would have encouraged our Engineers to do exploit cos if you check it you will find that our engineers abroad are doing exceedingly well compare to their fellows down here.

Nothing else made the difference but just good policy, conducive and encouraging system.

God bless nigeria still.

Do you know?

That there are special ships called Tugs. They are smaller, but powerful. Think of Lastma towing van? Exactly! Small but mighty.

Do you know? That ships have a fan-like blade beneath and behind them called a propeller? Generally, ships have one. But tugs have two. This contributes to their power, and makes them more manoeuvrable. They can move forward, backwards and sideways.

Do you know? That these tugs are attached to bigger ships with a towline? If that towline cut kperen! It's backlash can cut a man's limb?

Do you know? That tugs assist pilots in the safe berthing and unberthing in the port? Big ships being pushed or pulled by small tugs. Small geh big God.

Do you know? That Pilots and Tug Captains work together in a close knit environment to achieve safety? Communication must be, and is usually seamless in order to achieve proper Bridge Team Management?

Do you know? That Tug crew often work and stay onboard up to six weeks without seeing their families?

Here is the pictures of an engine room of a ASS 2810 Tug. 28m length Overall, 10m Breadth Overall


1. Engine room Rectifier (converts AC Voltages to DC Voltages, in this case 220VAC to 24VDC)

2. Hydraulic Tanks showing Electric motor connected to the Pump

3. fuel Transfer Valves

4. General Service pumps and Bilge Pumps with Valves and engine room fire fighting Hydrants

What of the DP Control Console picture ?

Nice one. The Engines are Perkins. meanwhile, only two engines on tug boat? why just two? smaller security vessels I've worked with has four/minimum three engines though not Perkins but cat and Cummins.




so op, can you enlighten me on why a tug boat has only two engines
