Maritime Conrad Industries Announces
Addition to Backlog
9/21/04 9:42:00 AM
Conrad Industries, Inc. announced the award of a $5.6 million contract to build
a 95' x 30' x 12'9" Fish Stocking and Assessment Vessel for the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service of the Department of the Interior. This self- propelled
vessel is intended to serve in the Great Lakes. Johnny Conrad, Conrad's
President and CEO commented, "The addition of the Fish Stocking and
Assessment vessel to our backlog is another example of the diversification of
Conrad's product and customer mix. Although this is the first fish stocking and
assessment vessel that we have contracted for, the design and construction of
this vessel is similar to other projects we have completed in the past. With
this addition, our current backlog is approximately $43.0 million."
I would appreciate any additional information on this new science ship
and look forward to posting more details on www.CanAmGLASS.org
