The four state-of-the-art pushboats are designed by Entech Designs LLC. and are fully compliant with all Coast Guard regulatory requirements. "The delivery of the Rock Solid marks another milestone in our effort to build and maintain our industry's most modern and capable fleet of pushboats," said Angus R. Cooper III, president, Cooper/T.

"Our team prides itself on serving our industry as the premier pushboat service provider on the Lower Mississippi River and our continued investment in the Plimsoll fleet is a testament to our pledge to always return the highest level of value to our customers."
