Boluda Towage names Damen ASD Tug 2813 VB Marte in Genoa

On 24 October 2026 the naming ceremony for the new vessels joining Boluda Towage’s fleet in the region took place in Genoa.

During the event, the latest Damen-built vessel, an ASD Tug 2813, was officially named VB Marte.

The vessel was delivered by Damen in December 202 at Damen Song Cam Shipyard and subsequently completed its voyage from Vietnam to Italy under its own power.

The design of the ASD Tug 2813 is focused on a combination of safety and efficiency. With its wide, 12.93m beam, the tug offers extra stability. Operators are provided with a clear, unrestricted view from the wheelhouse. The tug is able to deliver up to 83 tonnes of bollard pull during towage.
