Sanmar Shipyards latest tugboat, built for Ultratug, has successfully completed a comprehensive programme of sea trials in Tuzla, Turkiye.
Known during construction as Boğaçay LXXIX, the tug is based on the RAmparts 2400SX-MKII design by Canadian naval architects Robert Allan Ltd., a model exclusive to Sanmar. Compact yet powerful, the design has been tailored to meet the demanding operational needs of Ultratug.
The trial results were witnessed by representatives from Ultratug, Sanmar, and classification and quality teams, underscoring their importance as a milestone for both companies. With a 12m moulded beam, 24.4m length, 4.5m moulded depth and 5.45m navigational draft, the tug demonstrated excellent stability and manoeuvrability.
Rüçhan Çıvgın, Commercial Director of Sanmar Shipyards, said: “Completing these sea trials is a significant milestone in our partnership with Ultratug.. We are confident it will provide reliable service while supporting Ultratug’s sustainability goals. At Sanmar, our mission is to deliver vessels that are efficient, safe, future-ready and environmentally responsible — qualities that define every Sanmar vessel.”
As part of Sanmar’s best-selling and constantly evolving Boğaçay Series, this latest delivery reflects the shipyard’s dedication to combining compact design with high performance. With trials now completed, the vessel will move into final delivery preparations before joining the Ultratug fleet, where it will provide safe, powerful and eco-friendly support in port operations.
