The biggest constraint in Vanuatu’s maritime industry isn’t ships or finance—it’s people. 🚢💡

As CEO of Ocean Logistics Limited and Chairman of the Vanuatu Shipping Association, Andrew Bohn shares why maritime MUST be recognized and prioritized as critical national infrastructure. Ships, wharves, and seafarers are the roads that connect our islands and move the vast majority of our freight.

To build a stronger future, we need to invest in our local workforce, support the Vanuatu Maritime College, and empower the next generation of maritime leaders. 🌊

Our CEO Andrew Bohn now has his own page. It's real footage from the work we do across the Pacific: slipway haul-outs, tows, wharf jobs and landing cargo on islands with no wharf.

Give it a follow if you want to see more of what goes on behind the scenes.

Founder and CEO, Ocean Logistics. Tugs, barges, landing craft and Vanuatu's only commercial slipway.

Solid foundations lead to smooth operations! 🏗️⁣
⁣
Our Ocean Logistics slipway team was hard at work constructing concrete blocks that will serve as the heavy-duty foundation for our winch and pulley systems. From precisely positioning equipment layouts and bending rebar frameworks to building timber molds, pouring concrete, and hand-finishing every surface—every detail matters when it comes to site reliability.⁣
⁣
Strong foundations mean safe, efficient, and reliable marine operations for our clients every single time. 🌊⚓⁣

Small but mighty! ⚓️⁣
⁣
Whether it's fetching pilots, making fast tuglines, or keeping operations running smoothly from the engine room to the main deck, Tug Titirangi is always hard at work at NISCOL Wharf.⁣
