Nice photo, but it looks like a dismasted motorsailor. I thought Derby

Man, you'd need one hell of a pickup truck to tow that barge.

For sure. It weighs 80,000 lbs and has an 8 ft draft among other
things. Apparently there was an option to get them with a sailing

outriggers.

80,000 pounds?

Good lord.

Not much more than my Navigator when I have a few of my beer drinking
