Use Our Crane - Save Time and Trouble
M/V Richard L. Becker Recently assisted a yacht that required life raft service. The captain of the yacht noted that they did not have yard time scheduled in the near future and determined that utilizing the Richard L. Becker’s crane was the most cost-effective solution. TowBoatU.S. Fort Lauderdale’s 96’ work boat M/V Richard L. Becker utilized yacht quality fenders and gently rested alongside the vessel for the operation that took place at Bahia Mar Yachting Center. Using their 9,000-pound capacity, 42’ reach crane, the crew skillfully hoisted the life rafts aboard the Becker and delivered them to a waiting truck back at their home dock located in Dania Beach. The same operation was performed in reverse order once the life rafts were serviced and ready to be delivered back to the yacht.
M/V Richard L. Becker is standing by 24 hours a day to assist with operations like this. The vessel is also used often for long distance towing operations as well as support for projects that require a vessel of her size and capabilities for various government entities and private sector companies. Her specs can be found on the charter page of the company website at www.towboatusftlauderdale.com.
