Another one bites the dust. One more sunken Derelict vessel out of our water ways in Fort Lauderdale Broward County area.

 This one had to be towed backwards because the rudders were hard over and towing backwards was the only way to tow in a straight line with one stern pull tow boat.
 This job was completed for Broward County Sheriff's Office.

We used Fronte Crane service to lift the stern of this vessel so we could start pumping. This vessel was steel and weighed in at 57,000 pounds.

We took care of this vessel from the salvage to the tow. The haul out and the hauling to the dump.

Downrite Marine/Carnival Cruise line,boat towing company




   Its been over four years since Downrite Marine started towing for Carnival Cruise line. After completing the vessel's Destiny and  Glory towing every life on board each ship. We towed each life boat to and from the service facility. At the time this contract was being completed the ships were coming into Port of Miami and the service center we Broward Ship yard off the Dania Cut off canal. These tows were round trips from Miami to Fort Lauderdale, pick one up and drop one off,each time. On a tight schedule every time with thousands of people waiting to go on their vacation. With 20 plus life boats and several small fast rescue boats on board the cruise ship these were large tasks on a dated and time stamped contract. Downrite Marine completed each and every tow.
 We still tow for them today when a problem arises.
