Conrad delivers pushboat ‘Ray S’

Conrad Shipyard delivered the 102-foot twin-screw pushboat, the Ray S, to Houston-based Enterprise Marine Services in late December 2017. The boat was built at Conrad’s Amelia, La., facility and a christening took place Jan. 15 Enterprise’s Houma, La., location. It is the fourth boat Conrad has built for Enterprise. “We wanted the versatility that this boat gives us as a 3,000 (hp) boat that can run on the river or intracoastal (waterway),” said Jacob Brown, Enterprise’s director of shipyard operations.
