With
today’s concern for our
environment, fuel consumption
has become a deciding factor in
choosing a tugboat for a job.
The Noelani (EX-YTB 785
Winnemucca) is one of the most
fuel efficient tugboats in its
class. There are two reasons why
the Noelani Tugboat is a
highly-desired vessel.
The Noelani has a molded hull
design. It also has 6.1
reduction gears. This allows for
a 12-foot diameter propeller
that has maximum shaft turns of
150rpm. In turn, this provides
the Noelani a bollard pull which
is comparable to many 3,000hp
tugboats. The Noelani has almost
30lbs of thrust per horsepower.
These specifications make the
Noelani tugboat a highly
desirable and cost-effective
solution for your transportation
needs.
