Nautical Design & Consulting owners Randal Monceaux, Brandon Monceaux and Drew Monceaux of Berwick returned from the 2023 International WorkBoat Show in New Orleans with recognition. They attended the event to receive accolades for their exceptional design modifications on the M/V Capt. Les Eldredge, a 62-foot-by-21-foot-by 20-foot crew transfer vessel. This vessel, converted from a charter fishing vessel, has garnered attention as one of the “Top 10 WorkBoat Significant Boats of 2023.” Coast Line Transfers Inc., based in New Bedford, Massachusetts, owns the Capt. Les Eldredge. Nautical Design and Consulting said the vessel’s transformation was not only a testament to the innovation by the company but also a collaborative effort with Hornblower Shipyard in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
