Master Boat Builders Inc. (MBB) of Coden, Ala., announced the construction of a new 4,000-hp tug for PNE Marine Holdings. The new tug is the sistership to Polaris, which was delivered to Polaris New Energy earlier this year. Polaris will be coupled with a barge currently under construction at Fincantieri Bay Shipbuilding and will form a Jones Act-compliant articulated tug barge to help fuel the cruise ship industry’s new LNG-powered ships in Port Canaveral, Fla. The tug is expected to be delivered to PNE Marine Holdings in 2023. (Source: Work Boat 06/17/22)
