Market Insights
Commercial market analysis

Given its operational status and regional suitability, the vessel positions itself well for local towing contracts and port assistance. The tug's age may impact charter rates, yet its methanol fuel usage could appeal to environmentally conscious charterers. Brokers should also consider the vessel's trading status and potential for reliable service in regional markets.
