300ft 7800T Deck Barge

Wright International Ltd is delighted to be able to bring this superb new build to the market at a time when the whole world is looking for large barges. This 7800 Tonnes barge has been designed and built with a 5 T/m2 deck loading. The barge is all welded steel construction. It has a flush deck and twin skegs. The main hull is divided into 8 transverse water tight bulkheads and three longitudinal water tight compartments, which gives a total of thirty three compartments. At 300ft long and some 80ft wide this huge barge would make an ideal asset for any company under the present demand for this mode of transport. She will be ready to sail in November 2005, but can be bought now before someone else comes in and takes her. Her two sister barges sold before they were launched, such is the worldwide demand for quality barges. If you would like to inspect her then please contact either Robert or Greig and leave the rest to Wright International Ltd.
