Thoughtful Design
How did we create the Tugboat of the Year? By building a tractor tug that is as agile and durable as it is powerful and technologically advanced. By benchmarking the world’s best workboats and aiming even higher.
Every feature of the Great Lakes Shipyard Jensen Series 92 ASD Tractor Tug is thoughtfully designed to provide your crew with best-in-class performance and capabilities, with added confidence and maneuverability, to meet any ship assist or escort requirements.
