Turkish shipbuilder Sanmar has delivered a Bogacay-class tug to the harbour tug fleet of Scotland-based Targe Towing.

Renamed Kittiwake on arrival in Aberdeen, the newbuild is supporting port and terminal operations at the Hound Point marine terminal on the Firth of Forth, Scotland. The terminal loads oil that is produced from North Sea platforms on to tankers for export worldwide.

An azimuthing stern drive tug with fire-fighting capabilities, Kittiwake has 60 tonnes of bollard pull.
