Ocean Kinetics confirmed as Tall Ships sponsor

ONE of the key players in Shetland’s marine industry, Ocean Kinetics, has been confirmed as a sponsor for next summer’s Tall Ships event in Lerwick.

The company said it was pleased to be providing both a financial sponsorship package and the use of its vessel, the Ruby May, as a press boat during the event from 26-29 July 2023.

Ocean Kinetics managing director John Henderson said: “It is 30 years since Ocean Kinetics was established to provide marine-based engineering solutions to industry in Shetland, so it is particularly fitting for us to be supporting an event focused around the marine environment at this time.

“It is a privilege to support Shetland as a host port and we also fully endorse the wider benefits afforded to young people through sail training.”

Emma Miller of event organisers Shetland Tall Ships Ltd. said the team were delighted to have Ocean Kinetics on board for next summer.

“Ocean Kinetics plays a crucial role in supporting Shetland’s marine industry and we are really grateful for their financial support,” she said.

“Their provision of the Ruby May as a press boat will provide accredited photographers with waterside access to ships for photographs, helping the media to fully capture what is sure to be a wonderful spectacle.”
