Setting you up for success on the water, and on paper


We provide consulting services tailored to your company and your project’s unique needs. Starting with a free consultation to get familiar with your company and your goals, we will work with you to determine what degree of service is best suited to advancing your project. Examples of our services include:

  • Hourly consultations for high level discussions and recommendations

  • Project or topic-specific assignments (i.e. technical drawings, permitting agent services, etc.)

  • Full project packages with deliverables from start to finish

Our familiarity with planning and permitting work in the marine environment lends itself to many types of projects both big and small, so we would be happy to discuss your unique goals and determine how we can be of assistance.
