It’s great to see that they are adding another pontoon as they expand their business in the Netherlands. I’m grateful to John Spencer, MD of GPS, for once again, placing his trust in Damen. We trust this fourth barge will prove to be a valuable addition to their fleet and a continuation of a long-lasting relationship.
