The two small ships you saw several months ago on this cruise with nets were from Space X. They are used to attempt  to collect the fairings that surround the satellites they launch to be reused. The fairings are made of a rare metal and are several million dollars. How they transport  the first stage rocket that lands at a sea barge back to the Cape I do not know.  Maybe they turn the stage on its side on one of the ships. The fairings though do not survive a landing in the sea to well.
