Marilyn Monroe
This barge is the lady of the fleet so named for the admiration the owner once had for Marilyn. The barge is long and sleek, tows fast and can transport a heavy load anywhere in the world. She was built with a maximum beam of 76’ so she is suitable for passage thru most locks in the Great Lakes and the Colombia River.
