Dutch Courage is a representation of Dutch Pride and Dutch Power, two of a
series of tugs built in the Netherlands in 2003/04. Designed to operate in
water depths not readily accessible by conventional tugs of deeper draft
these vessels are suitable for a variety of applications including towing,
pushing, supply and survey work. These tugs are fitted with a hydraulic
telescoping deck crane and the rear deck space allows for the
transportation of cargo, including containers. A feature of the vessels is
the push-bow with heavy duty rubber fender. Crew complement: 6.
