E.N. Bisso & Son welcomes latest 'go-anywhere tug'

摘要

For nearly four years, E.N. Bisso & Son's Gladys B. was the lone z- drive tugboat designed by Robert Allan Ltd. working the Mississippi River. Now, it has some company. Eastern Shipbuilding of Panama City, Fla., delivered the 80-by-38-foot CD. White in January 2020, and as of April 202C was building a sister tug. Both are robust RApport 2400-series tugboats outfitted for ship handling and ocean towing. "It's a go-anywhere tug," said Mike Killelea, E.N. Bisso's port captain.
