Seaspan Tugboats in Port Metro Vancouver

Port Metro Vancouver was formerly called the Port of Vancouver. This Port is the main west coast entry point for products into Canada. There are over 90 trading countries coming through Port Metro Vancouver.

Port Metro Vancouver is the largest in Canada, the 5th largest in North America and the 50th largest in the World.

With such a busy port it is good that we have world class tugboats that maneuver the huge freighters that unload their goods.

Seen in the picture are the Seaspan Eagle and the Seaspan Osprey. These tugboats are super powerful with up to 6300 horsepower.

It's nice to know that a world class port has world class equipment.
