M.K. Services has been providing underwater oceanographic, survey and inspection equipment to commercial, research and military customers for over twenty-five years. Ziggy has spent a lot of his time scrutinising and testing marine equipment in the field. For example, his work for the British Antarctic Survey involved a amount of separate cruises covering many disciplines such as, physical oceanography, marine geophysics, biology and remote sensing. ‘It is this variety of ship-based research’, explains Ziggy, ‘That has ultimately meant I have used a whole variety of navigational, acoustic, AUVs, ROVs, oceanographic corers and fishing marine equipment and systems. And now that I’m at MKS, I am looking forward to using my marine experience to help customers choose the piece of equipment that best suits their purpose’.
