GMSO

GMSO was founded and now led by Commander G. Mark Miller, a retired National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Corps Officer who spent 20+ years operating and managing NOAA research vessels. He holds an Unlimited Master Mariner USCG license and a degree in Marine Geology from Long Island University, and is a member of The Explorers Club... As the U.S. fleet of research vessels has grown in tonnage and complexity, so too have the operational costs passed on to scientific research projects. GMSO aims to make ocean field studies available to even the smallest of budgets... GMSO provides efficiently-sized professionally-staffed oceanographic vessels for government, educational, private research operations.
