The Foss motto of "always ready" is especially relevant to rescue towing and emergency repair services.

We pride ourselves on having experienced staff, trained in Incident Command System (ICS), and knowledgable about safety procedures and precautions. An active member of the International Salvage Union (ISU) and the American Salvage Association (ASA), Foss provides ancillary support in salvage efforts, including: lighterage, blowers, ballast pumping, fire-fighting, rescue craft, boom deployment and tending, and barges for slops.

Repair Teams Dispatched to Anywhere in North America

Foss' ability to provide emergency repairs and preventative maintenance help customers avoid out-of-service time. We can dispatch a mobile response unit repair team from Seattle to anywhere in North America in 24 hours to do shipboard repairs at the dock or while underway. Foss' highly respected team of naval architects, marine engineers and shipyard staff is also available for marine engineering support in emergency response situations.
