摘要: The Baltimore marine transportation company Vane Brothers obviously likes what Chesapeake Shipbuilding builds. In late October, Vane took delivery of its 17th tugboat from the Salisbury, Md., boatyard, the 94'×32'×13' Cape Fear. The Cape Fear, a model-bow tug, is based on a design by the late Frank Basile at Entech Designs LLC, Kenner, La. In the engine room are twin 1,500-hp Caterpillar 3512 main engines. On deck is a JonRie Series 500 hydraulic towing winch. The design goes back to Vane's earlier Sassafras-class tugs, which were first built in 2008. (The Sassafras was the first tug built in Maryland in more than 30 years.) "They all have the same dimensions and horsepower," said Capt. Jim Demske, Vane Brothers port captain. "We really haven't had to make improvements to the newest tugs."
