In Our Clients Own Words

It’s very rare if ever that I forward recommendations for people, outside agencies etc. but I feel I would be delinquent not to do so with the attached group.

The Namibia team had nothing but constructive help and sound guidance from Simon Jones. We were very fortunate with the assigned surveyor, there were others that came with the following ships that did not buy into the team effort, and they could not cook without a cook book.

In short I can only speak highly of Simon Jones and personally would recommend him for any and all work that fits his new company profile.
