Barge often refers to a flat-bottomed inland waterway vessel which does not have its own means of mechanical propulsion.[2] The first modern barges were pulled by tugs, but on inland waterways, most are pushed by pusher boats, or other vessels.[citation needed] The term barge has a rich history, and therefore there are many other types of barges.
