ABOUT US
Floatmaster is a sister company of Thrustmaster of Texas, Inc., a world recognized designer and manufacturer of marine propulsion systems. For 40 years, Floatmaster and Thrustmaster of Texas have been designing and manufacturing heavy steel equipment for inland marine and offshore Customers around the world.
Special expertise has been developed in the design and manufacture of steel modular barge sections.
Floatmaster systems are barges, causeways or bridges assembled from interlocking welded steel sections that are assembled together at the job site. The individual barge sections are robust standard units designed for transportation on standard truck and trailer combinations without the need for special permit loads. They are made in five feet and seven feet deep blocks of 40 x 10 and 20 x 10 feet. Rake sections, loading ramp sections and a host of accessories are available to facilitate assembly of very capable workboats.
The assembled systems can be used as construction barges, transportation barges, vehicle ferries, elevated bridges, causeways, floating excavators or dredges, crane barges, swamp or lake drilling rigs, cleanup barges, floating docks, pile driving barges, etc.
Floatmaster offers a wide range of available accessories for the barge sections, including mooring winches, fairleads, steerable propulsion units, spuds, spud wells, elevating legs, bitts, chocks, cleats, bollards, and fenders.
