Tug Lucia |
 |
|
Seen here with Barge Caribbean, Tug Lucia's 7,010 horsepower make her perfect for pushing tall petroleum barges. She was built in 1995, is 127 feet long, 38 feet wide, 69 feet tall, and has a draft of 17 feet. Her fuel tanks hold 156,000 gallons of diesel fuel, making her a long-haul tugboat.
