Our Services
VESSEL ASSIST AND towing
Our 39’ tugboat, Beamsville, provides vessel assist services and general towing. Ceara Salvage also has the equipment and expertise to recover sunken vessels.
PASSENGER CHARTERS
The Beach Hopper can transport your group of up to 6 passengers wherever you need to go. Kayaks and surfboards are easy to load and unload through the walk-on/walk-off bow ramp. The Beach Hopper is also popular with film crews, bird-watchers, nature photographers and marine researchers.
FREIGHT
Freight such as pick-up trucks, quad bikes and building supplies can be moved around the west coast with a 30'x10’ Hiab ramp barge and tug. For smaller loads or beach drop-offs, the 26’ landing craft, Beach Hopper, is a better fit.
