An apparatus, system, and method of loading of a compartmented dry-bulk-cargo barge in an efficient, safe, load-balanced, and environmentally responsible way, minimizing exposure to the elements, spillage, and spread of dust particles from the dry-bulk materials, through existing small hatch openings in barge compartment covers, without removing barge compartment covers, using an articulated arrangement of connected conveyers with rotating and telescoping capabilities, providing rapid change of position and precise positioning with minimal movement of the compartmented dry-hulk-cargo barge.
