About Interconmarine

A proven partner to Canada’s ship repair industry.

Canadian-owned · West Coast based

Since 1994, Intercon Marine has supplied marine rigging, ship repair and maintenance services to the Royal Canadian Navy, Canadian Coast Guard and commercial fleets. We are 100% Canadian owned and operated, based in the Public Works and Government Services Esquimalt Graving Dock in Greater Victoria on Vancouver Island.

Built by mariners

Our team has spent years at sea on Coast Guard ships, foreign-going naval vessels, drill ships, oil & gas offshore supply ships, supply boats and hydrographic survey vessels. That hands-on experience shapes how we plan, execute and problem-solve every repair.

Safety and production, together

Production and safety go hand in hand for us. We focus on understanding each customer’s operational pressures and delivering the highest-value service with a high-integrity, problem-solving, project-focused team.
