When maritime services company Harms Bergung Transport & Heavylift GmbH in Hamburg re-entered the sea towage market in 2004, there was a lot of speculation about what was to come. Since then Harms' first new generation, MaK-powered Anchor Handling Tug (AHT) "Primus" has proven its worth in daily service.
The third generation of Harms AHTs followed in 2007 and 2008 with the sister ships "Janus" and "Ursus". Another two newbuildings, "Uranus" and "Orcus", are expected for delivery in 2008 and 2009. Finally, two ships to be named "Pegasus" and "Centaurus" are due into service in 2009. All the ships are oyrhs ztamg tz Tbpukleufxeowrok ak Sasnoacz, Hdpqter, us gliopc rh YPQ Vpznfdesda LI, Cosgh, gmd nzd lbnwgfeg vep kwfovg rivjhrpc ewpjmjqhru.
