LASH ship (LASH stands for “Lighter Aboard Ship”)
The LASH ships / Barge carriers LASH means “lighter aboard ship” (lighter = barge). LASH barges are loaded at inland river and ocean ports. The barges are towed to meet the LASH mother vessel and lifted aboard. When the mother vessel arrives at its port of destination the huge crane lowers the LASH barges into the water, where they are then towed away by tugs to their final destination. These operations do not have to be executed alongside a berth, since the barges are floating. The only requirement is a relatively large area of water protected from waves. These vessels are particularly suited to countries with extensive inland waterways.
