"
"Captain Cunningham is by far one of the best ship Masters I have had the opportunity to sail with during my career. I was struck by his professionalism, enthusiasm, dedication, integrity, character and knowledge. I would not hesitate to go to sea under his command and would be honored to sail with him anytime, anywhere in the world."
MARAD
Brian Blower
Special Projects Coordinator for Ship Operations, U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD)
"
"I observed Captain Cunningham's exceptional leadership with the crew that ensured the exercise was successfully accomplished in a safe and effective manner. He communicated and listened effectively with all crew members, built strong relationships throughout, and improved interagency partnerships with outside organizations. His professionalism, dedication to crew welfare, and operational excellence were evident at every level of command."
TRANSCOM
Peter Anderson
TURBO ACTIVATION Program Manager, U.S. Transportation Command (TRANSCOM)
"
"Without question, Captain Cunningham is a superlative manager and leader of a ship and crew. He leads from the front, prioritises safety above all, and is unafraid to make the call when only the Master can. He excels in ambiguous situations — he revels in problem solving and enjoys creatively tackling challenges. Mariners actively want to sail with him, and he is one of the top Masters of his peer group."
Keystone Shipping

"
"Alec has an intimate understanding of internal drive, motivation, and knowing what it takes to get to the top in the maritime industry — and he deploys that judgment in every principal and partner Sea Corps Group puts on the water."
Morgan Stanley
John J. Mack
Former Chairman, Morgan Stanley
"
"The level of operational knowledge Sea Corps brought to our refit was genuinely exceptional. They identified structural and systems issues that our own technical team had missed at the specification stage, saving us considerably in both time and cost. True command-level professionals who understood the project from every angle — owner, flag state, class, and yard."
K. Andersen
K. Andersen
Vessel Owner — 65m Motor Yacht, Monaco
"
"Working with the Sea Corps team as Owner's Representative was a genuinely collaborative experience. They understood the operational realities onboard, kept the project moving through a complex refit scope, and communicated clearly between the vessel and ownership without creating unnecessary friction. Their technical oversight and reporting gave us full visibility without having to be in the shipyard ourselves."
Family Office in London
R. Fitzgerald
Counsel for Family, Home Office — London
"
"When our yacht was arrested in Ft. Lauderdale, we needed immediate, experienced help to manage the situation. The Sea Corps Group was deployed within 48 hours. They handled everything — crew, port authorities, class surveyors, and coordination with our legal team — with complete professionalism. The yacht was preserved in excellent condition throughout the entire proceedings and was released in short order."
Eagle Eye Maritime

"
"We engaged Sea Corps for a fleet compliance audit across our 12 Panama-flagged vessels. Their findings were detailed, commercially practical, and — unlike some auditors — clearly informed by actual shipboard experience. The remediation program they provided was implemented fleet-wide and we had zero PSC detentions in the following 18 months."
Bulk Carrier
C. Osei
Fleet Manager, Bulk Carrier Operator — Accra
"
"Few operators in the world can manage the complexity of simultaneous helicopter, submersible, and dive operations at a professional level. The leadership Sea Corps brought to our research missions was exceptional — safety never compromised, mission always delivered."
Research Vessel

Chairman, Hedge Fund & Principal Owner, Deep Ocean Research Program
"
"Sea Corps provided the financial transparency and operational oversight we require when deploying capital into vessel acquisitions. Their reporting is precise, their judgment sound, and their integrity unquestionable. Exactly the kind of partner a fund needs in the maritime space."
Maritime Partners
T. Vance
CFO, Maritime Capital Partners
"
"We were evaluating the acquisition of a fleet of OSVs and needed independent technical due diligence we could trust. Sea Corps produced a report that was genuinely insightful — identifying significant deferred maintenance and operational issues that the vendor had not disclosed. The savings on purchase price and subsequent refit costs more than justified the engagement tenfold."
White Ensign
M. Thornton
Director, Maritime Asset Fund — London
"
"Accounting with total transparency, no BS. Alec is one of the hardest working SOB's I've met in the large yacht industry and I have complete trust in his onboard management."
