Founded Momentum Marine to promote vessel docking technology. Momentum Marine specializes in automatic docking and automatic mooring systems for commercial and private vessels. Also called "positive restraint" systems, our technology reduces diesel emissions and fuel costs, and results in a cleaner environment. Invented and patented several devices that enable one person to single-handedly and safely dock a boat. SmartLanderTM Commercial Vessel "Positive Restraint" technology connects large boats to the dock, which allows operators to throttle down the engine and reduce emissions. Momentum offers design consulting and custom solutions for Commercial Vessels, Luxury Yachts, Offshore Wind and Oil projects, ROV solutions, Miltary programs as well as other watercraft projects.www.momentummarine.com
