What are Tug Boats?

A tug, or a tugboat is a special class of boat without which mega-ships cannot get into a port.

It helps in the mooring or berthing operation of a ship by towing or pushing a vessel towards the port. [{ "selector": ".plioa-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Tug boats can also be engaged to provide essentials, such as water, supplies, etc., to the vessel. [{ "selector": ".pfnuz-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Tug boat eases the maneuvering operation of vessels by forcing them towards the port. [{ "selector": ".oqurj-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Tug boats have become essential for non-self-propelled barges, oil platforms, log rafts etc. [{ "selector": ".gmgnc-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

These are small, rather powerful boats due to their strong structural engineering. [{ "selector": ".frzjo-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

These can also have fire fighting accessories to provide fire fighting assistance in ports. [{ "selector": ".sgmof-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Tug boats are known for their moderate draft, and can carry about 6 to 8 passengers or guests.
