Experience is our way of setting the bar higher
Seaward Marine Services would like to thank the American Society of Naval Engineers for putting on the Fleet Maintenance and Modernization Symposium in Virginia Beach, VA and the Virginia Beach Convention Center for hosting the event. Most of all, we'd like to thank all those who came by our booth this year. A big thank you to the port engineers for all the kind words in appreciation of what we do. Looking forward to the next show.
