Budrovich Marine, one of the business units in the Budrovich family of companies, recently purchased a 2,400 hp. tow-boat. It is the fifth vessel in the Budrovich fleet and is the largest, most powerful boat the company owns. Previously named the mv. Buck Johnson, the vessel was owned by Imperial River Transport LLC in Belle Vernon, Pa. It is an 80- by 29-foot twin-screw towboat built in 1980 by Verret Shipyard. Budrovich renamed the vessel the mv. Justin B in the memory of Justin Budrovich, who tragically passed in 2019, according to Mindy Brundick, vice president of marine operations. He was the son of owner Jeff Budrovich. "Two other boats in our fleet are named for extraordinary people," Brundick said. "The Sam B is named after the founder of our company, Sam Budrovich Sr., and the Brian Brundick is named after a longtime employee." |
