“Thanks again for providing Navy Region Northwest with the best training opportunities available on the West Coast with PMI’s state of the art Tug/Ship Simulator and operators with Captain Jeff Slesinger’s, Delphi Maritime’s professional tutelage in ASD tug instruction. Thank you for the thoughtful and concise assessment of each student. This provides the independent feedback needed for each of these individuals to "think with their head" or "think with their hands" when continuing their process to excellence in becoming an ASD Tug Master for Navy Region Northwest.” Jay Anderson, Port Captain
