The BRAtt is an ultra-compact, training tugboat. It has Z-drive propulsion, a fully operational ship-handling winch, and all the necessary accoutrements of a fully functional harbour tug... simply scaled down. Although conceived and built as a platform for cost-effective training of Z-drive tug Masters, the BRAtt also has significant commercial potential as a line-handling or yarding tug where its compact but powerful capabilities would be a benefit with all the functional characteristics of a full-size tug.
