dredge features a swinging-ladder design and is easily transportable, making it

Offering the option of two front-swing winches, the
Barracuda Class is a two-in-one dredge that easily converts from a swing ladder
dredge to a conventional dredge without sacrificing portability. Available in
either diesel or electric power, the Barracuda Class discharge sizes range from
10 inches to 18 inches (250 mm to 450 mm).

Other Barracuda Class standard features include a
user-friendly control panel with a PLC-based operating system and a power
up/down spud system with API-rated winch drums for proper cable storage. A
rear-kicking spud for dredge positioning and advancement also comes standard.
Optional spud traveling carriages or two stern kicker spuds are available upon
request.

In addition to these premium features that maximize
operational efficiency and longevity, every Barracuda Class dredge customer
benefits from DSC Dredge’s ability to customize each standard production model
to fit exact applications and production requirements. These customizations
include larger or smaller dredge size, extended digging depths, production
instrumentation and GPS dredging systems.

The company also provides customers throughout the world
with intensive and professional on-site commissioning and operational training
ensuring rapid deployment while DSC Dredge’s automation skills, experienced
service capabilities and parts availability have established the company as a
