Aimed at vessel owners, builders, brokers, operators, media and manufacturers in the commercial marine sector the website serves as a central marketplace to buy, sell, or charter workboats, crew and equipment worldwide. Available craft are displayed by sector and vessel capability and sales and charters are arranged on a no sale, no fee basis.

Exhibiting at the 2018 Seawork gave rise to a fascinating chain of events involving a unique ice-strengthened survey launch.

She is a truly historic and unique vessel and after 32 years in service you might think her working days had come to an end.”
