• An international company with 44 offices located in 26 countries employing 1,100 office staff and 22,500 sea staff; servicing a fleet of over 600 vessels encompassing most major ship types.
• A brand which covers, in addition to its core ship management activities, a broad range of maritime services including crewing, leisure, financial, consulting, commercial and agency services.
Since the company's formation in Monaco in 1984, V.Ships has grown by opening new offices in major maritime centres around the world and by adding new services to it's product range. In recent years, organic growth has been supplemented by inorganic growth.
In 1998, V.Ships acquired Celtic Marine - an Isle of Man headquartered company specialising in the provision of manning services to ship owners. In January 2001, V.Ships acquired Acomarit, a leading ship management company, to create the world's largest ship management and shipping services group.
Following these two acquisitions, the V.Ships group has implemented a new branding strategy. This website explains the broad range of services - ship management, manning, leisure management, commercial management, financial services, consulting services and ship agency - now provided to customers under the V.Ships brand name.
The V.Ships Group has grown into a substantial organisation covering a wide range of service areas.

Company Mission
Our mission at VideoRay is to provide the best value and top efficiency in a small inspection-class ROV. Our reason for forming the company was to make ROVs more accessible to more people who want to explore and capture underwater worlds on video, whether for education, aquaculture, research, investigations, security, or surveys of dams, pipelines, wrecks, or water tanks.
Product Mission for VideoRay ROVs
By Scott Bentley, President of VideoRay
The idea to introduce the world's smallest ROV came to me while skydiving over the North Pole three years ago. During the trip, my friend Bob Christ and I visited the Shirshov Institute in Moscow, which developed the Mir manned submersible that explored the Titanic.
Scientists at the Institute were working on a microROV that would be small enough to enter other parts of Titanic and the WW2 Japanese I-52 submarine. Bob and I were fascinated, and we started investigating whether anyone was selling microsubs commercially. We were fortunate to find Inuktun in Canada, a company with a design for an 8-pound ROV that had been proven over a decade of use and engineering. We purchased the technology and started VideoRay with dream of introducing divers and underwater explorers to an affordable ROV that could go places no other ROV could go.
VideoRay is the only proven, personal ROV on the market, with hundreds of units in operation in around the world. We've continually honed the VideoRay, but we have held fast to our original missions of affordability, portability, usability, and safety in a micro ROV.
