MD & CEO - Seven seas ship supplies

I would like to express my gratitude for the excellent service I have received from Constellation Marine for a full survey done to purchase a Yacht. Captain Zarir Irani, was critical in delivering information in a very professional manner, prompt responses alongside the daily updates. I specifically enjoyed observing the captain while doing the survey live via Skype in addition to explaining the details which may be of concern. From start to finish, they walked me through the process of the survey, nothing was missed, and the full survey was delivered on time. Thank you!.
