Launch of the MARY JANE MORAN

In an industry that measures time by tides and tonnage, legacy is the metric that matters most.

For over 160 years, the name Moran has been etched into the waterways of America.

It’s a name that has guided ships through storms, pulled giants safely to dock, and stood as a symbol of unwavering maritime service.

That legacy continues with the launch of the MARY JANE MORAN, the newest addition to the Moran Towing Corporation fleet.

Though Moran Shipping Agencies and Moran Towing Corporation chart different courses—one in ship agency, the other in towing—we share more than just a name:

🚢 A commitment to the vessels that keep commerce moving
🚢 A respect for the power and promise of predictable service to industry
🚢 And a deep appreciation for the people who work tirelessly behind the scenes

The MARY JANE MORAN is more than just steel and horsepower.

She’s a continuation of a story started in 1860, when Michael Moran, an Irish immigrant with a single tugboat, dared to build something lasting.

We share that spirit at Moran Shipping as we mutually serve many ships in America’s ports.

Different missions.
Same maritime heart.

Legacy moves us forward. Together. Here’s to the next chapter on the water. 🍾
