Industry Testimonials

"Dear Steve: I really liked the potable water systems article you wrote. As usual, you nailed it!!! You are one of the few small boat guys that really has a handle on marine mechanical systems. A pleasure to read."

I wish to take a moment and thank you for rendering outstanding service to the Smithsonian Institution. You have made a hugely positive impact. Your careful and professional evaluation of our fifty research vessels and boats at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Station in Panama provided sound and actionable information. The recommendations you made have been instrumental in driving changes in the maintenance management of our research vessel fleet, operations and training of our people.

I look forward to our continued relationship as you begin the next phase, conducting similar examinations on our research vessels located at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center.

"As I've said to your great embarrassment on several occasions, you are the person who knows more about boats, our industry and its products than anybody else I've ever met - your knowledge is truly encyclopedic and you are up-to-date on everything that is happening that effects us."
