Is the pay worth it? ?? How can you start a career in maritime? We’ll be answering all these questions (and more!) in the coming weeks as we take you behind the scenes of life at ASC.

关于我们
One of the oldest and most successful operating companies on the Great Lakes, ASC has been a mainstay on the lakes for 114 years. Throughout our history, American Steamship Company (“ASC”) has been a pioneer in Great Lakes vessel transportation. Founded in Buffalo, New York in 1907, ASC has witnessed and responded to dramatic changes in Great Lakes shipping and the industries it serves, many times leading the way with innovative solutions that have had a positive impact on Lakes shipping throughout the years. Our Great Lakes fleet consists of a six-vessel fleet of 1,000-foot long self-unloading vessels. The diversity of our asset base enables us to transport a variety of dry-bulk commodities including iron ore pellets, coal and limestone aggregates. Our single-trip vessel-carrying capacity ranges from 65,000 to 80,000 gross tons. During the navigation season, our vessels operate twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week and require no onshore assistance to unload cargo. Unloading speeds range from 7,000 to 10,000 tons per hour. ASC currently owns a fleet of 11 US flagged self-unloading bulk freighters, with 6 presently operated by ASC itself and 5 are chartered to another carrier for operation on the Great Lakes.
