A slogan that the company leadership and crew adopted many years ago goes like this... “Solving Complex Marine Problems Since 1989”. President Larry Acheson explains “Over the years, we have been fortunate enough to be trusted to perform some of the trickiest towing, salvage and charter operations that you can imagine. We’ve had do adapt and invent, persevere and rise above. With increasingly technical jobs, our experience and knowledge grew. We have developed a training program that focuses on passing this knowledge along to new crew that joins our team. I think the breadth and depth of our experience coupled with our training program is what allows us to solve these complex problems for our customers today”.
