Tugboats are also known as tugboats. A tugboat is a type of ship whose job is to pull and push other ships. Be it a large ship that is about to dock at the port. Or ships that don't have propulsion.
Because tugboats function to pull or push ships, tugboats are equipped with engines that can provide quite a lot of power. The average engine capacity is 750 to 3,000 horsepower (horse power).
Even tugboats on the high seas have power of up to 25,000 horsepower. So it is only natural that tugboats are able to pull or push ships that are larger than their size.
Apart from having a large engine capacity, tugboats are also designed to be easy to maneuver. The tugboat's movement capability is obtained from the propulsion system, which can increase the thrust of the ship's propeller.
