DMS Osprey evolved from a flexible design – by Jack Gaston
On 27 April Damen Marine Services took delivery of the new tug ‘DMS Osprey’ and ‘DMS Pelican’, a Multicat 2409. The ‘DMS Osprey’ has a striking resemblance to the ‘Pushbuster’ class of tugs introduced in 2008 but bears the designation Shoalbuster 3511. The explanation lies in some slick redesign and careful use of resources.
