Horizon Arctic
The arctic tug Horizon Arctic is shown facing to the right in this photograph. It is a large ship with a massive bow and reinforced hull designed for light icebreaking duties, painted royal blue to match the Horizon Maritime colors; the starburst logo is painted just beneath its white-painted bridge in the forward section of the hull. The rear half of the vessel has a much lower freeboard to accommodate surface operations.
