From Wikipedia

The lighter aboard ship (LASH) system refers to the practice of loading lighters (a type of barge) aboard a bigger vessel for transport. It was developed in response to a need to transport lighters, which are usually unpowered, between inland waterways separated by open seas. Lighters are typically towed or pushed around harbors, canals or rivers and cannot be relocated under their own power. The carrier ships are known variously as LASH carriers, barge carriers, kangaroo ships or lighter transport ships.
