Master Boat Builders Inc. announced March 9 the delivery of a new 4,000-hp. tug to Polaris New Energy. Named Polaris, the tug will be coupled with the recently delivered barge Clean Canaveral, forming the largest Jones Act-compliant articulated tug barge (ATB) providing LNG bunker fuel in the U.S. The ATB will be operated by McAllister Towing. "Master Boat Builders is committed to producing the most dependable and reliable tugs in the maritime industry, and we thank Polaris New Energy LLC for giving us the opportunity to prove it," said Gar-rett Rice, president of Master Boat Builders. "Polaris will be used to its full poten- tial, helping fuel the cruise ship industry's new LNG-powered ships when they arrive in Port Canaveral later this year." |
