Job Well Done, Captain Riley Brown & Crew!

Riverview Tug Service would like to recognize Captain Riley Brown and his crew for their diligent efforts in safely transporting the M/V Becky Thatcher from Bayou La Batre, Alabama, to St. Louis, Missouri.

This was not a typical Riverview job. It was a unique assignment that required adaptability, sound judgment, teamwork, and professionalism throughout the voyage. Captain Brown’s leadership and skillful command, combined with the hard work and dedication of his crew, brought the Becky Thatcher safely to her destination.

We are especially proud that this was Riley’s first trip serving as captain. His performance set the standard we expect from Riverview captains and demonstrated the confidence we have in the next generation of leaders within our company.

Jobs like this showcase the quality and versatility of our mariners—their ability to take on unusual and challenging assignments, execute them safely and efficiently, and provide our customers with the level of service they expect from Riverview.

Congratulations to Captain Riley Brown and crew on a job well done. We are proud to have you representing Riverview on the waterways.

How do you like them apples?

We will host a public open house at Lock and Dam 7 in La Crescent, Minnesota, Sept. 19 from 10-2. Held in conjunction with La Crescent’s annual Applefest, the event offers the public a rare, behind-the-scenes look at how the Corps maintains the Mississippi River navigation channel — which allows a single commercial barge to transport the equivalent of 7.5 million apples. 🍎 That's a lot of apples!
