Crowley’s ConRos boat of year

Crowley Maritime Corp. of Jacksonville, Fla., and subsidiary Jensen Maritime of Seattle, were honored with the 2019 Significant Boat of the Year Award during the International Workboat Show in New Orleans last week. The award recognizes the company’s industry-leading combination container/roll on-roll off (ConRo) ships, MV El Coquí and MV Taíno, the first of their kind powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG). Work Boat’s recognition of the ConRos as tops among its annual Significant Boats honorees marks the first time that the award has been presented to a large, oceangoing container vessel. The two ships were built by VT Halter Marine of Pascagoula, Miss.
