Our History
Gulf Marine Repair was formed by Aaron Hendry in 1988. Its core business is the repair, conversion and modification of large oceangoing commercial vessels, tugs and barges, dredges, small ships, harbor tugs, and U.S. Coast Guard, MARAD, USACE and NOAA vessels. Our customer base is throughout Florida’s Gulf Coast and Eastern United States. GMR has grown in prominence as one of the top yards on the Gulf Coast for the repair of articulated tug-barge units engaged in transporting liquid bulk chemical and petroleum products and dry bulk products.
