Bio

Ryan, our owner and Head Surveyor, has extensive experience with boats and ships, having been involved in the marine world from a young age. Following his high school education, he attended the Nova Scotia Nautical Institute, graduating with Honours as a Cadet in Marine Navigation. His career began at sea onboard the largest fast ferry in North America at that time, The Cat, powered by four water jets.

Returning to his roots, Ryan fished in the North Atlantic and then transitioned into the Oil and Gas sector, specializing in Marine and Subsea Construction. He served aboard heavy lift and pipelay vessels of various sizes and capacities, operating in waters from 0m to over 2000m deep worldwide. His professional journey saw him rise through both onshore and offshore management and command roles.

With over 20 years of combined experience, Ryan has worked as a Barge Master, OIM, OCS, Marine Manager, and Client Representative. His expertise includes towing, barge handling, pipelay (both shallow and deep water using S and J Lay techniques), heavy lifting with offshore and onshore cranes, multi-crane lifting and planning, anchoring, vessel planning, and providing management support, project planning within the diverse marine industries and MWS services.
