Marine Systems
Mooring Systems
• Deck barge is designed for traditional
mooring alongside piers with bitts and
bollards with fairlead
• Can also be anchored out with 4 point
adjustable anchoring system which is
included
• Also has a stream anchor/windlass and
towing wire
Ballast Systems

crossover
• Ventilated ballast
tanks
Deck Barge
• Originally built in 1976 as a heavy North
Sea ballastable transport, this stout deck
barge has heavy steel decks and
members
• Deck barge is in very good condition and
well maintained
• Deck barge is classed with ABS but
suspended class during lay-up
Transport Options
