“A Stevens Towing Company team member performs torch cutting during steel repairs in a vessel’s hull structure. Working in tight quarters with heavy material, the job demands focus, experience, and strict adherence to safety protocols. It’s one example of the craftsmanship and technical ability that supports vessel maintenance and keeps maritime operations running smoothly.”

Meet Miss Bettye — a 70-foot towing vessel built to handle serious work on the water. With a beam of 28 feet, a max draft of 10 feet, and an air draft of 41 feet, she’s as solid as they come.

Powered by twin KTA38-M1 engines and pushing 2,000 horsepower through mechanical propulsion, Miss Bettye carries a gross tonnage of 131 and a net tonnage of 105. She’s built for strength, reliability, and performance where it counts.

Not all of our roles require time on the water. Meet Elizabeth Barry from our Human Resources team.

This is Elizabeth’s first time working in the maritime industry, but she’s already making waves behind the scenes. As she puts it, “People grow within this company… and they stay.”

Take a minute to slow down. There’s beauty in the grit - in the quiet strength of a vessel ready to work.

These boats tell stories. You just have to look close enough to see them.
