Loading or Removing Heavy Objects from Your
Motor Yacht Has Never been Easier
TowBoatU.S. New River offers 2 vessels that are equipped with knuckle boom cranes with a lifting capacity up to 7.5 tons. Our 46' Launch boat is equipped with a 1,500 lb capacity crane that is suitable for small to medium sized items. Our 96' vessel, the Richard L. Becker is equipped with a 7.5 ton crane boasting a 41' reach which is suitable for larger items that may be located on upper decks. "This service has become popular with Motor Yacht captains and engineers throughout South Florida" states Barney Hauf, Director of Sales. "Captains and Engineers have found that they can accomplish tasks that would have previously required a land based crane as well as relocation to a boatyard or a berth in the port by using one of our vessels to quickly and safely accomplish the same job."
TowBoatU.S. New River has recently assisted Motor Yachts with lifting operations involving refrigerators, generators and life rafts. In addition, there are several vessels in the fleet that can assist when the time comes to service or replace your anchors or anchor chain. The Crew at TowBoatU.S. New River is skilled in crane operation as well as yacht towing; as a result we use great care to insure that each one of these operations is safe, successful and damage free.
