Description:

Harbour Tug
GRT: 352
Built: 1985
Flag: Australia
22-03-20, alongside Svitzer tug base on BGP2 Geelong. Supposedly in Geelong to replace the TINGARI and BURRA, as they cycle through maintenance at the Launceston Shiplift. The fact that the SVITZER MARYSVILLE is also here from Melbourne and doing all the jobs, probably means that there is more to the story . . .

Now heading from Geelong, showing destination as Port Pirie and named as GINGA. She didn't carry out any towage while she was in Geelong, and now COOMA has arrived as the 2nd tug on the roster.

Suspect it might be MARRAKAI's 48t static bollard pull.
