Press Release – Mid Atlantic Maritime Academy (“MAMA”) announced today that it has been acquired by San Diego based Abrams Marine Group, Inc. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Abrams Marine Group CEO Dave Abrams commented “MAMA is a great training organization with a highly regarded team and world class facilities. The company is located in a strategic location for the growth of both our defense and commercial business segments.” Abrams also owns San Diego based Training Resources Maritime Institute (“TRLMI”). Abrams continued “We will eventually merge MAMA and TRLMI into one organization under a new name to form the largest maritime training company in the U.S. For now, the two companies will operate independently but collaboratively to maximize training opportunities for mariners”.

Ed Narantowich, President of MAMA added “We are excited to be joining forces with Dave and his team out in San Diego. Both of our organizations are very focused on serving the mariner, and the combination of the two companies will provide mariners with the largest offering of training options with strategic locations on both coasts. Virginia and California are both primed for growth in the maritime sector with offshore energy, defense growth, and continued increase in maritime commerce. We will be there to develop current and future generations of mariners to support that growth.”
