Description

In June 2019, Lyttelton Port Company (LPC), New Zealand, took delivery of the Piaka, a RApport 2500 harbour tug, after voyage on its own bottom from Singapore. The vessel was designed by Robert Allan Ltd. of Vancouver B.C. and constructed at ASL Shipyards Ltd. in Singapore. The Piaka is named for the Adderley Head on the south side of the Lyttelton harbour entrance.

The Piaka is a larger and more powerful version of LPC’s RApport 2400 tug, Blackadder, which was also designed by Robert Allan Ltd. and built in 2002. LPC is the largest port in the South Island of New Zealand and has a container throughput of over 400,000 TEUs annually. Together, the Piaka and Blackadder are vital to the long-term growth of the port.

Principal particulars of this new design are:

Length O.A.: 25.2 m Beam, moulded: 12.00 m Depth, moulded (hull): 4.57 m

Maximum Draft: 5.30 m above bottom of drive
