Welcome

Welcome to the website of ASHBY MARINE CONSULTANCY.

In June 2010 I joined the BRAEMAR SHIPPING SERVICES GROUP as a Senior Marine Surveyor with Braemar Falconer Ltd in London. Ashby Marine Consultancy has therefore ceased to trade and is now dormant. I continue to provide expert professional assistance to P&I Clubs, underwriters, lawyers, owners and charterers, utilizing my 35 years of experience in the maritime sector: at sea and ashore, in the Middle East, Africa and the UK.
