Our grandfather, Captain Spiros Lygnos, as Master of S/S Orion rescued and took great care of four Dutch Mariners 200 miles offshore of Finistère, France (Western Brittany) in North Atlantic in 1942. They had been on a lifeboat for 74 hours before their rescue. Following this tradition through SMM Emergency Response Service since 1992 and blended with our love for ships and respect for those working at sea, we have prevented on multiple occasions loss of life and property at sea. Our 24hr SMM Emergency Response Service covers your company and vessels, in times of crisis, when ship’s crew and management quickly need precise technical information and minimizes the consequences of casualty at sea by an essential thorough assessment of vessel’s Damage Stability & Residual Strength.
