PROJECT ACHIEVEMENTS:

  • The stern of the crab fishing vessel was wider than the arms of the OT-2437, which appeared to be the main challenge for towing the vessel. It was decided to insert the whiskers from the side hawseholes onto the mooring bitts.
  • Thanks to the professionalism of the OT-2437 team, everything was securely fastened, and the towing operation was performed in the normal mode, without complications.
