June 2021.


IIMS would like to congratulate the five members who have been recognised with an Award this year...


Capt Zarir Irani is awarded an Honorary Fellowship. Now a Past President, having held the post from 2018-2020, Zarir is formally recognised for his work on behalf of the Institute in this role. Additionally, he remains an active and enthusiastic Regional Director for the UAE branch and continues to play a significant role in maintaining a high presence in the territory for the Institute. As a prolific networker, Zarir is always keen to promote the organization to the wider marine world.


James Renn is awarded an Honorary Fellowship. James has been a member of the IIMS management board for several years. He developed and hosts the annual US two day seminar, constantly sourcing inspirational and relevant speakers on a range of topics – an event drawing an every increasing audience. He continues to represent IIMS in America, notably at the IBEX show each year. James has been responsible for driving a number of new membership applications from America.


David Pestridge is awarded a Fellowship. A relative newcomer to the IIMS management board, David is also a co-opted member of the education committee, which meets several times a year. A yacht and small craft surveyor, David is someone who has grown through the ranks of the organization since completing and passing the Diploma some years ago, proof of what can be achieved.


Mike Proudlove is awarded a Fellowship. He has been a member of the Institute for many years. Over that time, he has made a significant contribution to the IIMS, initially in developing the Diploma and education offering. More recently, he is a non-executive Director of the Marine Surveying Academy and continues to give freely of his time, sharing his knowledge and speaking at various conferences and seminars for the benefit of members.


Mike Marshall is awarded an Honorary Membership. Over the years, Mike has given a lot to both IIMS and its subsidiary, the Marine Surveying Academy. He has been recognised for his work as both a member of the Institute’s Professional Assessment Committee and as an Assessor for the eCMID Accredited Vessel Inspector programme.
