A summer internship should mean more than watching from the sidelines.

This summer, we welcomed three maritime students to our Yonges Island Shipyard, where they gained hands-on experience alongside the crews and professionals who keep our shipyard running every day.

Daniel Gibbs | United States Merchant Marine Academy | Systems of Marine Engineering

Jack Elsten | United States Merchant Marine Academy | Marine Engineering & Shipyard Management

Sarina Edwards | Massachusetts Maritime Academy | Marine Engineering

Daniel plans to sail after graduation, while Jack plans to earn experience sailing on his Third Assistant Engineer license before eventually transitioning shoreside. Sarina is continuing her studies in marine engineering.

We’re proud to give future maritime professionals an opportunity to learn on the job, ask questions, get their hands dirty, and work alongside people who have spent decades in the industry.

Thanks for spending your summer with us, Daniel, Jack, and Sarina. We look forward to seeing where your careers take you.

Good food. Good people. Pretty good way to spend an afternoon at the shipyard.

Our friends at @condustrialstaffing recently treated the Stevens Towing crew to barbecue and a boil from locally owned Walker’s Catering.

A chance to put down the tools, catch up, and enjoy some time together.

Thanks to Condustrial and Walker’s Catering for feeding our crew!

Every career starts somewhere.

At Stevens Towing, we're always looking for hardworking people who want to build a career on the water. And a deckhand position is one of the best places to start.

In this video, Assistant Dockmaster and Travel Lift Operator Damari Murdaugh shares his journey at Stevens Towing and what has kept him here: a strong safety culture, teammates who look out for one another, and opportunities to grow.

If you're dependable, enjoy hands-on work, and are looking for more than just a job, we'd love to hear from you.

That fire? It was all part of the plan.

Stevens Towing recently welcomed St. Paul's Fire District to our Yonges Island Shipyard for a live firefighting training exercise.

The realistic training scenario gave local firefighters the chance to practice responding to emergencies in a maritime environment while helping all of us strengthen communication and preparedness.

We're grateful for our partnership with St. Paul's Fire District and proud to support training that helps keep our crews, our waterways, and our Lowcountry community safe.

The first half of 2026 was a busy one for Stevens Towing.

Our tugboats and barges stayed on the move supporting project cargo and construction work, while our Yonges Island Shipyard welcomed everything from U.S. Coast Guard cutters and cruise ships to ferries, tugboats, barges, dredges, and marine construction vessels.

We also started construction on two new ABS-class deck barges to meet the growing needs of our customers.

A big thank you to our crews, shipyard team, and customers for making the first half of 2026 such a success. We're looking forward to what's ahead!

POV: Your tugboat crew wins the company photo contest. 📦👕

New shirts are headed to the Sea Crescent crew after they submitted one of the top photos for our social media recently.

Now the real question…

Which crew is taking the next win? 👀

"We've been everywhere in the United States. Any place you can go by water, pretty much we've been there."

In our industry, experience isn’t just valuable – it’s everything.

Bos Smith has seen it all, working under three of our four owners, and leading the charge through countless changes in the maritime world.
