Is is preferrable to Buy a barge or to Hire it. I heard there is a lot of expense in maintaining a barge which is often in and around 3 years time.

Can someone who has a clear idea give me tips and valid reasons for the proposed buy or hire.

Thanks!

Replying to [Sunil Abraham]:Is a profitable business to have a barge or a vessel.I have a friend who is looking for another partner to buy a chemical tanker. Contact me if you are interested and i'll give you his details.

Replying to [iulianap]:Do you have the details of the tanker? I am interested to know its specifications so as to decide further.

Will appreciate your reply.

Thanks!!

Having read your posting, I will like to notify you that the choice of either renting or buying a barge depends on the span of your project. For 3 years project,it's ideal to rent a barge. however, we, at my company, are consultants whose services includes procurement of barge for rent or purchase across the globe. kindly contact me for more details through:- seundaniel@yahoo.co.uk.

Mr. Danny Destiny.
