logo2014, no bg.png

Since opening in 1974, Marine Transportation Services has been proud to serve the transportation needs of drilling interests in the Gulf of Mexico. As the saying goes, however, all good things must come to an end. We welcome you to look through our inventory of crewboats for sale. We also have spare engines and parts from decades of building and maintaining vessels at our shipyard known as Queen Craft Shipyard.

CREWBOATS FOR SALE

Currently, we have 2 quad-screw crewboats for sale: 136′ M/V Bonnie D and 136.5′ M/V Kimberly D. These vessels are sisterships fabricated from the same base plan with matching hull and cabin dimensions, but different power trains. The M/V Kimberly D has 4 Caterpillar model C 32 main engines that recently received top end overhauls. The M/V Bonnie D is powered by 4 Detroit Diesel model 16V-92 TAB main engines. Our vessels are in amazing condition and were built and maintained by Queen Craft Shipyard and Engine Shop, a division of Marine Transportation Services. We constructed them, operated them, and maintained them to last indefinitely. No after-market parts have been used in remanufacturing processes for these crewboats. All propulsion and power supply systems exclusively consist of genuine OEM parts. We also have a variety of spares for sale. 

Find the details and photos of these vessels on our website: CrewboatsForSaleByOwner.com. 

ABOUT

Ownership and leadership of Marine Transportation Services comes from the family of the late Grover Davis. As President, he and his wife, Judy, Vice President, founded MTS in 1974. Family management has expanded since then to include their two daughters, Kerrie Davis Beasley and Kimberly Davis Whitfield. Kerrie came to MTS as a CPA and Kim is a member of the Florida Bar. Since Grover’s passing, Kerrie now serves as President and Kim serves as Secretary/Treasurer. This company was built on long-term relationships with clients and employees and a commitment to superior vessels. Queen Craft Shipyard is managed by Daniel Strickland and the Engine Shop at Queen Craft Shipyard is managed by Robert Ross. We remain committed to the principles of honesty and fairness, and we will handle all sales with efficiency.
