Deepened channels, new or expanded LNG and cargo terminals, and the massive ships that call on them may garner many of the national headlines related to the maritime industry, but behind all those vessel movements are the tugboats that help maneuver and escort ships throughout the deepwater ports and waterways of the United States.
Fincantieri Marine Group is moving forward with approximately $9.6 million in federal funding for manufacturing upgrades and workforce programs at its Wisconsin shipyards.
A fire broke out in a forward stateroom aboard the tug Samson III while contractors were working elsewhere on the vessel at a Wrangell, Alaska, repair yard Oct. 8, prompting a rapid response from harbor personnel and local firefighters.
