"Mo" AKA Maruice W.A. Pimm
Pro Mo Marine was established in 1998 by Maurice W.A. Pimm (Mo), with the aim of giving a complete service to all his clients.  

Born into a sailing family in November 1970 he was naturally led to working in the marine industry.  It all started with yacht deliveries at the age of 14 followed by work on a variety of yachts and motor boats in the Med, Caribbean and the east coast of America.

Now a qualified Yachtmaster in both Sail and Power craft, he has built up a wide range of experience from sailing 80' Maxis to driving ribs. He has worked in many different countries in a variety of situations, including photo shoots in Dubai, working with Rick Tomlinson, skippering private and corporate charters, yacht management and maintenance.

 Film & Photography  

In the past years Mo has worked closely with Rick Tomlinson, the world renowned sailing photographer, driving for him on shoots such as Pete Goss's "Team Philips", Ellen Macarthur's "Kingfisher", Tracy Edward's "Maiden II", the start of the Volvo 2001-2 and the re-start of the Volvo 2005-6 Round the World Race, The Fastnet Race, and 18' Skiff's Regatta. In addition   to driving for Rick, Mo has also been shoot coordinator for a major cigarette manufacturer in Dubai and he has worked with other TV production companies such as TVS, APP, and most recently SHOOT YOU.

Yacht & Charter Management

Yacht management has always been the core of his business from the start.
Whether it is looking after boats for individuals or syndicates, private or charter companies - he has provided the highest level of care and personal attention for the boats and their owners, catering for their individual needs. This has meant that he has had to be accomplished in a wide range of fields, from management of racing yachts to setting up and running a charter company.

Other Association & skills

He has recently been working closely with Relience Yacht Management, Roger Pimm (8 metre racing and maintenance; inc. Varnishing/Painting),  C P Rigging (pro-grip wheel covering), M A Marine (corporate charters) and Carouse Charters ( helped set up and run)
