I worked here for about a half a year. It felt good like a family. I'm very familiar with repair work, I really enjoyed working on the Crowley Barge and the Crane barge. The company isn't huge so providing yourself with your own tools is needed. I believe this place has a great future laying ahead. It is definitely is in need of good shipyard hands all the time. I bless the Owner and management and wish the best for them. So grateful that they offer the city, community, and people job opportunities. My experience was great! Overall this place was awesome and they truly care about the customers.
