Today marks another milestone for McKeil Marine as we have just been issued the ISM certification for the tug John Spence.  The purpose of the code is to provide an international standard for the safe management and operation of ships and for pollution prevention. With hard work and dedication we can accomplish just about anything working as a team. 

We are a proud family and place safety and the safety of our environment at the top of our for priority list for all our crew and all that work with McKeil.  Part of the objective of being ISM certified is to ensure a safe working environment while sailing and the prevention of injury or loss of life.  It also ensures the avoidance of damage to the environment, in particular to the marine environment and to property.

Congratulations to Capt. John Gruszewski who has worked very hard to achieve such high standards and continues to do so as our Manager of Safety, Security and Environment; and to the Officers and Crew of the John Spence for achieving this goal.
