Seahorse East Africa Limited is dedicated to the marine industry in Tanzania. The company was established in 1999 and is owned and run by John and Liria van der Loon. The main emphasis of "Seahorse East Africa" is building a range of fibreglass boats, acting as boat broker for used boats, agent for new boats and engines, and the importation and supply of marine equipment. The boat building utilizes a series of moulds to laminate hulls and top decks. The basic hull is called the Chachungi and using this long narrow canoe shaped hull they can be joined together to form catamarans and trimarans. See the range under "new boats". Boat brokerage, is in essence, an agent who acts on behalf of sellers and buyers of boats, both new and used. This assists both parties to be able to relate directly to the current market forces, and to put the correct value to a boat. The seller is given advice and assistance to sell his boat while the buyer is provided with expert knowledge in the process of deciding on the right boat for the intended use, a detailed description and assessment of boats that are for sale, and after sales back up with regard to repairs, spare parts, maintenance, and basic operating techniques for that particular boat. The seller is charged a commission for the sale of his boat. Unless the broker is given sole rights to sell the boat then the buyer can also sell it independently. The buyer has only one obligation to the broker. If the broker is the first to show him a particular boat which he decides to purchase, then the sale must pass through the broker. In the boating industry since 1974, and a long term commitment to East Africa since 1993, it is vital for John to ensure that all parties are completely satisfied with any transaction. While every effort is made to confirm the accuracy of the information supplied on the listed boats, Seahorse East Africa cannot be held responsible for any inaccuracies.

Mentor Shipping Agency (Pty) Ltd. was established in 1976 and became a fully independent company when purchased by Graham Jones, Mentor's Managing Director and Sole Shareholder, in 1993.  With this independence came the urge to give our Principals worldwide a secure home base for them to want to appoint Mentor Shipping as their Agents and therefore the reason for purchasing our own building aptly called "Mentor House" with our Head Office personnel moving in on the 1st November 1994.  Representing, as "Independent Agents", over 200 Principals from around the World, including numerous prominent Ship Owners, Traders, Charterers and Operators; Mentor Shipping Agency, Head Office, is situated in Durban, with offices in Richards Bay, Cape Town, East London, Port Elizabeth and Walvis Bay in Namibia. Our Services include the regular handling of Tankers, Liners, General and Project cargo, Container vessels, numerous Bulk cargoes and Breakbulk carriers, as well as Dry Docking vessels, vessels calling purely for Bunkers, Stores etc and also "Off Port Limits" service; though out our coastline.  The fact that Mentor Shipping has offices in all the major South African ports as well as Walvis Bay has proved to be very beneficial to our Ship Owners, Operators and Traders who feel that it is very important to be able to deal with just one Ships Agency when having to call at more than one S.A. Port and our requirement is that all communications to our Coastal Offices are routed through our Durban Head Office, which ensures that the Principal concerned only has to deal with one office and that our Head Office is kept fully advised throughout the vessels call/s.  Graham started in shipping in 1970, as a ships operator at the age of 20 years old, working for Freight Services.
