Holyhead Towing's 25m, shallow-draft ice class AHT/ workboat Afon Wen recently moored in Falmouth after a five-week voyage from West Africa. The 2009-built, twin screw vessel had been working for three years on various contracts along the Gulf of Guinea and was returning to the UK to be drydocked for its second five-year special survey. The work in tropical waters included dredging support, shallow water anchor handling, barge support, rig support, cable laying and general towage. This in a climate that contrasts with previous contracts in the ice-bound Caspian Sea.
