A small operator built around trust, capability and rapid mobilisation.
GEM Marine Services Ltd is a UK marine operator providing professional RIB-based services to commercial, public-sector and private clients. Our model is deliberately simple: one well-equipped, well-maintained Highfield Patrol 700 — operated honestly, mobilised quickly, and supported by experienced people.
Whether you're a marine civils contractor needing reliable standby cover, a survey company looking for a compliant platform with CAT A surveyors, or a competent skipper after a bare-boat hire — we want the job to feel uncomplicated from first call to demob.
Operational Honesty
If we can't do it well, we say so. If we can, we'll prove it on the water.
Rapid Mobilisation
Trailer-launched. Most UK locations within hours, not days.
Right People
Commercial coxswains and partnered CAT A surveyors when the brief calls for it.
Backed by Ffolkes Offshore.
We work hand-in-glove with Ffolkes Offshore Ship Agency & Marine Support for logistics, freight management and port-side coordination. Their agency network removes the friction from mobilisation — quay access, customs, crew transfers, equipment movements and offshore supply runs are all handled by a team we trust completely.
For clients that means a single, joined-up operational chain: you brief us once, and the vessel, crew, freight and shoreside support arrive on schedule, fully coordinated.
