One of the Dutch Companies that repairs at Malta is Van Wijngaarden Marine Services that offers worldwide maritime services.

Lately we saw once again the 2013 built Eurotug 2308 26.68 metre tug AMERSTROOM entering Marsamxett Harbour, Malta on 26th March, 2022 at 1655 hrs coming from Abu Qir, Egypt.




She berthed at Manoel Island Yacht Yard (MIYY).

Then she left on Saturday 2nd April at 0615 hrs bound to Mellitah, Libya and entering once again on Friday 9th April at 2005 hrs berthing at Pinto 3 Wharf, part of Valletta Cruise Port and left on Monday 11th April at 0612 hrs bound to the Adriatic Sea.
She was here back in 2016,2017 and 2018.
Last Van Wijngaarden Marine Services tug that was in Malta was the 1995 built 15 bollard pull tug RIJNSTROOM that was seen slipped at MIYY back to October, 2021




Back to 2018 we issued an article regarding the above mentioned tug since she was slipped – https://maltashipnews.com/2018/08/18/towage-rijnstroom-ready-for-her-next-assignment/
