Capabilities

New Vessel Construction

C&C Marine and Repair builds custom towboats, tugboats, dredges, dredge support vessels, barges, offshore supply vessels, and specialty vessels with integrated onsite engineering and state-of-the-art indoor construction facilities. On time. On budget. Every vessel.

Overview

Built to Your Specifications

Since 1997, C&C Marine and Repair has constructed hundreds of vessels from our Belle Chasse, Louisiana shipyard. Every vessel we build benefits from our integrated engineering team, indoor construction facilities, and commitment to on-time, on-budget delivery.

We specialize in building towboats, tugboats, dredges, dredge support vessels, barges, offshore supply vessels (OSVs), and specialty vessels for clients across the Gulf Coast and beyond. Our approach is fundamentally different from other shipyards: our engineers work onsite, optimizing every design for both vessel performance and construction efficiency.

The result is simpler, smarter builds that go together faster with fewer problems. Combined with our state-of-the-art indoor facilities featuring overhead cranes, a panel line, robotic welding, and heavy-lift transporters, we consistently deliver vessels ahead of the competition — on time and on budget.

Indoor Construction

Every vessel is built indoors with overhead cranes, panel line, and robotic welding — eliminating weather delays and ensuring consistent quality year-round.

10+
Onsite Engineers

Full-time engineers and naval architects work right in our shipyard — not at a remote office — optimizing every design for performance and buildability.

100+
Acres of Shipyard

Our Belle Chasse facility includes 10 construction bays, 22 overhead cranes, 8 crawler cranes, 8 KAMAGs, and a patented robotic blast system for a fully integrated production flow.

25+
Years of Delivery

Since 1997, hundreds of vessels delivered on time and on budget. Accurate estimates and efficient processes prevent the costly overruns that plague other shipyards.
