    A frequent headache for the Buenos Aires-based operator was the excessive tailshaft bearing wear rates experienced on some vessels operating conventional rubber bearings in a mix of sea-, brackish-, muddy-, and freshwaters. The company looked for an alternative solution, and in October 2020, contacted Thordon’s authorized distributor in Argentina, Marine Logistics SA, with a request to install Thordon’s robust, low maintenance water-lubricated RiverTough tailshaft bearings to the 1975-built Candela S.
