"George's professionalism and resourcefulness has been an invaluable resource to our company for the securing of line haul tows. I would recommend his company without reservation. "

Joe Gagliano
Terminal Manager, 234 Terminal Corporation
"I recently had an opportunity to hire a contractor for getting a deck barge shifted from behind the Harvey Locks up to Our site at Mile 234 on the lower Mississippi river in Baton Rouge. I have to say there were challenges along the way as the lock closure at Harvey, and back-ups at the Algiers lock, nearly prohibited us from making this move. Working with George at Channel Ship and Marine, and taking his knowledgeable advice along the way worked out tremendously well for us as a company in both timing and economics. George made it all happen for us and the move went very smoothly soon after the lock re-opened. Not only did George find the way to expedite our barge out of the locks, he also was able to get us the best price to move our barge on site from New Orleans to Baton Rouge. I am eternally grateful for what George was able to work out for us as a company, and I also feel like I gained a good friend along the way. One who is always willing to listen to our concerns and put his years of knowledge to work for us on this particular move, as well as lend advice along the way with other business queries. For these reasons in particular, George is my first and usually last call when it comes to moving barges, cranes, and other equipment by water within the stretch of harbor from Baton Rouge going south to the mouth of the River."

Marine Division Manager, LA Scrap Metal
"The best hire I have ever made! Like having our own transportation manager on staff that is very dependable and always looking out for the client's best interest. Always providing the most cost effective options, keeping me well informed on progress, and meeting every challenge for a successful project. I have used Channel Ship to move cargo and tow vessels around the world, and they exceeded expectations every time. There is not a job too small or large for them to manage and I highly recommend Channel Ship to manage any marine transportation needs."
