Not a trawler owner yet hopefully one day. Currently a towboater running from corpus to Decatur AL.

Yup, what he said. Welcome. How about some pics of your "job boat" so we can all see what you do.

I'm a tankerman ( glorified deckhand ) we push 2-30k barrel barges of refined petroleum along the coast. We don't do blue water always the ICW or river systems. A few pictures from my last boat in the ship yard for majors. 2600hp boat. Twin Cummins around 275k bucks a piece.

Welcome, I keep my boat just off the GICW in Houma, La. You've probably been through there a bunch of times. I'll keep an eye out for the Natchez Express.

Welcome. When I could figure out getting my paperwork in order being on a tug will be my next career. Be just like trucking just on the waddah and not traveling alone.
