Main Description

Introducing 'Sea Truck', an Aluminum Barge that was originally made for the military in 1985 that was fully Customized in 2024 and ready to make $$$ running goods from island to island. Fully imported to the BVI with Duty PAID! Even more importantly, she is USCG Documented and under the 15 gross tons mark which means she can legally carry cargo in between the US and BVI without the additional requirements that a USCG Inspected Vessel would require. 

She is rated for Approx. 10 Tons, has 1000 ft.³ of storage below deck that can accommodate 12 full size pallets and just over 4' of head room. She has large insulated/refrigerated compartment below deck and an additional removable 4'x6'x8’ refrigerated compartment. She is also outfitted with a hydraulic knuckle crane that was professionally overhauled & ready to move cargo, Climate Controlled Helm station with a microwave and mini-fridge, 2x 200HP Yamaha HPDI 2 -Stroke engines with just over 1k hours and a brand NEW 12Kw Kubota generator to power everything.

The seller shipped and fully imported this vessel into the BVI with the intention for his business partner to run it as a business moving cargo between the USVI and BVI but plans have changed and he is hoping to find her a good home with someone with the work ethic to put her to work transporting goods. She is Turn-Key as is, but for a cash offer the owner will be willing to negotiate and/or accommodate by customizing the vessel to suit your needs. Reach out to get the conversation started and we can discuss the options and make this boat work for you!
