| COASTWORKER 35 / 37 / 
40 
Pleased to see the COASTWORKER 35 / 37 
stretched to 39ft Coastworker Matador...  on your website the 
interesting  thing is that she is towing.  
 
This was a special barge built 
in 70 days by Masters Ship-yard  250 tonne deadweight to carry a 850 tonne 
cracker  tube to the Cochin  refinery . the biggest heavy lift in India. It was 
Shipped from China. 
 
Was off-loaded from a heavy load ship in cochin  harbour  
onto the barge and then moved some 25 kms by inland waters to a jetty some 8 kms 
from the refinery. 
 
This saved some 5 years of negotiations and expense of road 
widening. Masters and Lots Shipping are the local experts at this. 
Capt Phillip of Lots Shipping can expand on this.  The Matador , has not 
stopped work for more than two days since commission. I am certain more will be 
built. South India is a coming scene. 
 
The next Yacht will be the 345 in 4mm. 
More boats 35/37/39 are on the agenda.  Regards Bryan Thurlow |
