About

LeeWay Marine was founded in 2015 by former navy professionals who saw an opportunity to put their unique skills and decades of experience to use in the private sector. In the years since, we’ve grown into the most experienced, like-minded, highly capable team in the region.

At our core, LeeWay Marine is a ship owner and operator. We operate a fleet of vessels and plan and coordinate operations to support our clients in the acquisition of data at sea. When a client needs something done at sea, we figure out a way to make it happen. We supply ships, equipment, and teams of highly skilled and deeply experienced crew who do everything in their power to support our clients.

But we are more than ship operators. We are known for meticulous mission planning, for our hands-on 24/7 commitment to our clients’ projects, for our unique and versatile mix of vessels, and for being really good people to work with. We look ahead – identifying emerging tech and putting it to use, anticipating issues and opportunities, finding solutions for problems when they arise, and using our combined experience to do whatever it takes to help our clients succeed. Located at the Centre for Ocean Ventures and Entrepreneurship, we are immersed in the latest innovations in the ocean tech sector.

In an industry with no guarantees, that operates in the harshest of environments, our team can be counted on to get the job done. In return, our clients trust us to help them get what they need, choosing to work with us again and again. And when those clients recommend us to others in their industries, we know we’re doing something right.
