Congratulations to CROFTON Field Engineer David Gourley on being named one of the six inaugural recipients of the Virginia Ship Repair Foundation’s Victor Figueroa Volunteer of the Year Scholarship yesterday!

Funded by the Bill Crow Memorial Endowment Fund, this scholarship recognizes students who demonstrate exceptional leadership, dedication, and a commitment to excellence while pursuing careers that will strengthen the Virginia ship repair and maritime community.

David is currently studying Civil Engineering Technology at Old Dominion University and is working toward his goal of becoming a Civil/Field Engineer. When asked about his future, David shared:

“My dream is to channel my lifelong passion and my renewed sense of purpose into a career within the Virginia maritime community.”

We are proud to have David as part of the CROFTON team and excited to see all that he will accomplish in the years ahead. Congratulations, David, on this well-deserved recognition!

It was an honor to join The Mariners' Museum and Park for the reopening celebration of Martha’s Way!

This project transformed a section of the James River waterfront into a safer, more accessible experience for visitors, featuring a 450-foot timber walking bridge, scenic overlooks, and enhanced connections to the museum’s beautiful natural surroundings.

For more than 400 years, the James River has played a vital role in Virginia’s maritime story. We're proud to have helped create a space where visitors can safely enjoy its beauty and appreciate its history for generations to come.

Thank you to The Mariners’ Museum and Park for the opportunity to be part of this meaningful waterfront improvement.

Today, we celebrate National Maritime Day in honor of all those who serve the maritime industry, past and present.

CROFTON proudly sponsored The Propeller Club, Port of Norfolk's National Maritime Day Celebration last night at Waterside. We were especially honored to have our vessel, The Cromo, participate in the wreath laying ceremony. It's always a meaningful tribute to the seafarers who have served and those we have lost.

As a company deeply rooted in the maritime industry, we appreciate the opportunity National Maritime Day gives us to reflect on the dedication and sacrifice of our community. Thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s event so special.

This weekend, CROFTON was proud to support the “Weld It, Build It, Sail It” Maritime Careers Festival at Nauticus in Norfolk. We were honored to have our crane front and center flying the American flag as families, students, and job seekers explored the many opportunities within Hampton Roads’ maritime industry.

The event showcased just how many rewarding maritime career paths exist right here in our region, sparking interest in the next generation while connecting today's workforce with job opportunities. Shout out to Nauticus for making the festival such a success!
