The Marsden Bay

The Marsden Bay, carrying cement for Golden Bay Cement.
In 2018 we acquired and restored the Marsden Bay cement barge for a contract with Golden Bay Cement, barging cement from Portland to Eastport.
She is a non-motorised cement carrier, 56m long, holding 2,000 tonnes of cement. The Marsden Bay works on the Golden Bay Cement contract and is not available for charter.
