They were built entirely of steel and were originally designed to carry ammunition and cargo from shore to deep - draft vessels anchored off - shore . These lighters were well suited for a variety of coastal tasks because their hull design incorporated a shallow draft with a solid engineering plant . All of these lighters had sufficient cargo space for storing equipment and an open deck and boom for handling large objects . They proved to be capable and useful buoy tenders .
