Discover the Atlantic, wooden and plastic model of this tugboat whose design and parts are manufactured in Spain, and whose hull in high quality ABS is manufactured in France. It is a faithful replica of tugboats of the 70s and 80s in 20th century. It was an offshore tug, it was not working at the ports, so it was prepared to withstand the most adverse weather conditions. All its structure was thought to be a stable boat in the water and very manageable, with the aim of being able to tow in open waters to large ships such as oil tankers or cruisers. Tugs, in general, are born in the nineteenth century, navigation experienced a great revolution, the main factor being the implementation of mechanical propulsion. As a consequence, ships gradually increase their size and displacement, losing ease in maneuvering in docks and ports in the process.
