What sets LMS apart from the competition is experience; large scale commercial survey, international and domestic regulations compliance, Naval Architecture, specialized fabrication processes, metallurgy, Damage & Repair, and Classification experience combine to make corporate level engineering experience and quality available to anyone. LMS does not draw its experience from captaining or working
in a local boat yard or builder; Professional Maritime Survey is the heart of LMS, and that makes the difference. About Me:
My name is Sean Lundy and I own/operate LMS. I am a native New Englander, a Marine Engineer, a career maritime professional, a Maritime Academy graduate, and a Marine Surveyor. I attended the Massachusetts Maritime Academy, earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Marine Engineering, a commission as an Officer in the US Navy, and a United States Coast Guard License of Unlimited Horsepower in Diesel, Steam, and Gas Turbines; at the Academy, I earned the awards of Presidents List, Dean’s List, and the US Navy Award for Superior Academic Excellence during all four years of attendance. I started my career as a member of the US Merchant Marine sailing on US Flagged vessels as a Licensed Engineering Officer. Upon coming ashore, I assumed a position with the American Bureau of Shipping as an Exclusive Surveyor; a position which I had the pleasure of holding in 3 separate countries and 4 separate Divisions of ABS. As a Gulf Coast Surveyor back in the US, I performed surveys on a wide array of vessels and facilities including various classes of ships, commercial and purpose built support vessels, private and commercial yachts, military vessels, Saturation Diving equipment, and offshore drilling vessels and equipment. During the time spent as an IACS Class Society Surveyor, I gained necessary experience with IMO conventions and Statutory Requirements of all major Flag States to complete compliance surveys on all marine vessels and facilities. My work as Project Lead for the US National Security Cutter program and extensive certification of PVHO SAT Diving components prepped me for a career as a Government Contracted Submarine Program Engineer; a position which I currently still hold. Aside from the commercial marine sector, I have an extensive background in the boating and yachting community. Early years of my life were spent on parent’s boats, working at a marinas and repair facilities, and spending all my free time on the water. During the time spent as a Cadet at MMA, I continued working at marinas and was employed by a yacht owner to maintain, service, and operate the yacht when commanded. Later after my college education, I served as the attending Surveyor for Trinity Yachts where I worked with them during the construction, certification, classing, and delivery of super and mega sized yachts. This position was by far the most exciting for me because I got to truly see machines of beauty coming together and becoming what they are today. During the time spent on the Gulf Coast, I also performed annual and renewal surveys for Class and Flag State on various yachts holding International and Class certificates.
