Mission
Our Mission
To deliver precise, compliant, and reliable annual servicing of marine navigation and safety equipment — connecting vessel operators with a certified network of approved subcontractors who meet the highest international standards.
Background
Our History
Founded over two decades ago, Navigational Marine Services was established to address a critical gap in the maritime industry: the need for a dependable, regionally connected network of certified technicians capable of servicing complex navigation and safety equipment aboard commercial vessels.
From our early operations in the Caribbean Islands, we expanded our approved subcontractor network to cover major ports across South America and the United States — building long-standing relationships with vessel operators, shipping companies, and port authorities along the way.
Today, we coordinate annual service campaigns for GMDSS, APT, GYRO, RADAR, EPIRB, AIS, and other critical navigation systems — ensuring every vessel we service meets international compliance requirements before departure.
