Scows/Barges

• These barges are built to CCG/USCG standards. They are strong enough to carry trucks with a GVW of 49.5 tons.

• All our vessels are custom built. SS bitts are standard equipment.

• Our 44’ barges have been equipped with 4 metre-tonne cranes,10 ton net rollers and 350 HP engines.

• The sides, bow and stern of these vessels are armoured 100% with 1.5” plastic planks, stainless steel and aluminum.

• There is sufficient built-in flotation to support vessel and cargo when flooded.

• All our barges weigh 65% less than steel so require far less HP and fuel. Maintenance is 5% that of steel.

EXAMPLES:
- 44’ x 22’ x 4’ with 350 HP Volvo, speed 15 kt, draft 6", payload 25 tons:  $189,000 CDN

Twin Hulled Barge

Twin-Hulled Barges

• Catamaran-style workboats are gaining favour world-wide for fishing boats, ferries, research etc. Barges can also benefit from this configuration. Two narrow hulls require less HP and are more sea-kindly than one wide hull.

• Our twin-hulled barges are easy to ship in modular sections no wider than 8’5”.

EXAMPLES:
- 24’ x 16’ pontoon boat with solid rot-resistant lumber deck. Payload is 10,000 lb and speed is 20 kt with 60 HP. Ten watertight compartments for safety:
$16,800 CDN c/w steering station.

- 48’ x 14’ twin-hulled barge with 1.5” thick work deck:  $36,750 CDN.

- 50’ x 24’ twin-diesel (150 HP x 2) with aluminum deck:  $241,500 CDN.
