Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Looking E (upstream) from Clark Bridge.

Towboat "Bayou Boeuf" (doc. # 264736) downbound with tank barges. Port of Louisville Terminal and Martin Marietta sand yard, at right.

Twin screw towboat "Bayou Boeuf" (doc. # 264736, length 132 feet, breadth 30 feet, Alco 16V251B diesels, 4600 hp. [repowered in 2006 with Cat 3516 diesels, 4000 hp.]) was built in 1953 by Nashville Bridge Co., Nashville, Tennessee. Owned by Chotin Transportation, New Orleans, it was originally named "Jos. Chotin". In 1968, the boat was sold to Oil Transport Co., New Orleans, and renamed "Bayou Boeuf". In 1994, the boat was sold to Tug Cynthia, Inc., and renamed "Cynthia". As of early 2013, the boat was owned by Pasentine Family Enterprises, Mandeville, Louisiana, and operated by Florida Marine Transporters, Inc., Mandeville. In 2015, the boat was sold to Whitetail Vessel Co. LLC, Paducah, Kentucky, and operated by Tennessee Valley Towing, Paducah. In 2017, the boat was renamed "Debbie Graham". Still operating in 2018. . The two tank barges at the head of the tow are somewhat unusual in that the 8 cylindrical tanks on each barge are visible above the deck. On the starboard bow is the heater for the thermal oil which circulates through coils within the tanks. This keeps liquid cargo like asphalt or crude oil thin enough to be pumped out at the destination.

Ohio River mile 604. Louisville, Kentucky. August 1987. File # 87h107. . 35 mm Kodachrome slide. scanned with Plustek OpticFilm 7600i and Silverfast 8.
