Steve Golding, chairman and CEO of Golding Barge Line, a transporter of liquid commodities with roots dating back to 1960, is someone who has always been mindful of tradition. That is, until he recently named a new towboat the mv. Rusty Moore. The boat, built by Master Boat Builders on a triple-screw design from Sterling Marine, was delivered in August.
Of the company’s 26 boats, 25 are named after Golding relatives, once going as far out into the family tree as a distant relative in Kent, England, named Andrew Golding, who flew with his wife to Golding Barge Line’s headquarters in Vicksburg to christen a newly delivered towboat that Steve had named for him.
