Olympic Tug & Barge Kestrel
We asked for a BOLLARD™ genset specially equipped for a repower on the Olympic Tug & Barge (OTB) tug Kestrel. The engineering and advance planning from MER made for a very smooth installation and reduced labor by OTB.
We look forward to teaming up with MER on future projects.
