Don't have any specifics, but know they are based isle of wight and operate general cargo and bulk carrier vessels. They are manned with mostly eastern European and some Brits. It's a good ship type to learn on, varied work often worldwide tramping which means different ports, and plenty of chances to get ashore. Interesting to work on because of the cargo work.

Thanks AncientMariner.
My brief research tells me that they are a private company with quite a few vessels.
Your comments about learning with such an operation as opposed to Cruise Ships confirms my current thoughts, also they seem kind of UK home grown.

Cheers.
