client feedback
First, was to compose an Operations Manual for the 88ft Monte Fino “MV SAHANA”, the second occasion was for a Pre-Purchase Survey of the 100ft Sunseeker “MY COLETTE”.
He has a wealth of experience and knowledge of the engineering and systems involved in running these larger vessels. Rods back up and availability for further questions and assistance in running these vessels has been most valuable to me.
I thoroughly recommended Rod for his professionalism and knowledge in the marine industry.
His level of commitment, knowledge and professionalism is outstanding. You are in safe hands with Rod.
I would thoroughly recommend Rod Twitchin to anyone needing marine construction or engineering works.
