The new vessel will complement and expand Wilming- ton's advanced ship-handling services in the Delaware River region. Designated as the ASD 25/55 Class, the vessels' design features a similar hull form to that of other Robert Allan designs. A partially raised forecastle and an elevated wheelhouse will ensure high visibility when the tug is called to han- dle large barges with high freeboard. While its primary use will be as a day- boat, the tug will house overnight crew accommodations. It is expected that the tug's perfor- mance will be 52 tons (114,650 lbs.) bp, with a free-running speed of 12.5 knots.
