Planning Custom Built Barges For Sale

By Jennifer Kennedy


Having a car for easy travel is one blessing but having a boat is another. You get to easily go to different islands without having to pay for public boat rides and having to deal with ferrymen. But when owning a boat requires a good maintenance. Just like your vehicle, it needs to be taken care of. Or if you want to beautify it, then add accessories. And when it comes to travel, you always had this idea of bringing along your car. Then you saw a sign at your dock saying there are custom built barges for sale.

Barges are different from your regular boats. They do not have that V looking shape underneath but they are rather flat. The reason for this is convenience to place cargo in a better position. Imagine putting cargo that does not have a flat surface, which would be a problem. For the record, this vessel is usually tugged by another boat. Although technology has advanced and there are new barges that can run on their own.

Barges have many different types and functions. There are two types of cargo carrying barges. Liquid is for one and the other is the dry bulk. Materials included in the dry bulk are literally dry things like imported goods from one country, shoes and clothing, even steel and those architecture related.

Water and or other types of drinks are in a liquid barge. Liquid gas, alcohol, liquid fertilizer, oil and others are included in this. Some countries would not mind having the dry and wet in one cargo but there are others who prefer it to be separated. Being separated is also a good idea to prevent reactions between the two. Plus it will be easier for segregation.

The common ones that everybody knows of carry cars. Not even just cars, trucks, vans, motorcycles and even those vehicles used up in the air. This is usually offered if one wants to go to another island and bring along them their personal ride. Not just for that function, those are used as floating landing stations, especially for the air vehicles. You have probably seen a floating helipad for water facilities.

There is also the crane type. These cranes are not the birds that one might be thinking of. Cranes are that machinery that lifts heavy objects. These types are usually found in construction areas off shore. With the help of this vessel, heavy lifting can be easily done to those construction companies that have projects in the water.

The other type is called a Hopper. Not because it hops. They are those really long and wide rafts that are being towed by another ship. Yes, this is one barge that cannot be independent and needs help form another boat. They look like a train in other words that is on water.

Barrack barges is another type. They are more of a residential kind of vessel rather than being of a transport. Our navy men are the usual residents to this. It is not all the time that they live in ships. Just imagine a house floating, that is what it basically looks like.

It is not actually a bad idea engaging into this kind of business. You could be helping a lot of water people. If you are considering, then pursue it if you want, no one is going to stop you. At least now, you know the different types you can offer. Additional knowledge is now to your advantage in regards to this.
