Conrad Shipyard, Morgan City, La., announced March 24 it had delivered a 240- by 60- by 14-foot deck barge to Ashton Marine LLC, a marine transportation company based in Muskegon, Mich. Named the AM 3600, the ABS-classed deck barge will carry 3,600 tons of bulk materials and project cargo throughout the Great Lakes area. The deck barge is equipped with two 50-inch spud well pockets for an easy conversion into a spud barge. Ashton Marine has one of the newest fleets on the Great Lakes, with two oceangoing tugs and two ABS hopper barges rated for a combined capacity of 3,800 tons. "We are continuing to build new vessels to meet the expectations of our clients," Ashton Marine Vice President Seth Andrie said. "Our team was extremely happy to partner with Conrad Shipyard on this project for the AM 3600. Their reputation in the industry speaks for itself." The barge was delivered in early March. |
