PROTUG 85-1 – IMO 9995935

85-Tonne Bollard-Pull RAstar 3200W ASD Tug

PROTUG 85-1 is a powerful Greek-flagged ASD harbour and escort tug built by UZMAR Shipyard in Türkiye in 2024 for Promarine Maritime interests.

Although only 32 metres long and 499 GT, the vessel develops approximately 85 tonnes of bollard pull, placing her among the most powerful modern harbour tugs operating from Piraeus.

Designed to the Robert Allan Ltd. RAstar 3200W concept, PROTUG 85-1 combines high bollard pull, FiFi 1 firefighting capability and modern ASD manoeuvrability in a compact hull.

She remains fully active in the Piraeus–Perama–Salamis area in 2026.

PiraeuShips Record

PROTUG 85-1 was recorded by PiraeuShips during the early Greek career of one of the most powerful new-generation harbour tugs based at Piraeus. Built by UZMAR at Altınova in 2024 to the Robert Allan RAstar 3200W design, the 32-metre tug combines approximately 6,860 bhp with 85 tonnes of bollard pull, ASD manoeuvrability and FiFi 1 firefighting capability. Operated by Promarine interests and active throughout the Piraeus, Perama and Salamis towage market, PROTUG 85-1 represents a major technological step beyond many of the veteran conventional tugs historically associated with the port.
