Congressman Steve Scalise visits SeaTrepid

scalise_profileRobert, LA – Louisiana’s First Congressional District Congressman, Steve Scalise, visited SeaTrepid in Robert, LA in order to get a feel for robotic technology’s footprint within his district. During the visit, Congressman Scalise and his aides attended a brief presentation from SeaTrepid’s President, Bob Christ. Mr. Christ explained the SeaTrepid goals of bringing offshore robotic technology to the Northshore economy, hiring our nation’s veterans, and keeping our revenue dollars local to grow and support small businesses within the First Congressional District.

The SeaTrepid Operations Department led by Mr. David Selby, General Manager of Operations, provided support with our Light Work Class Comanche ROV in order to demonstrate to Congressman Scalise the versatility of the company, its employees as well as SeaTrepid’s fleet of ROVs.

SeaTrepid appreciates this excellent show of support by our Congressional Representative demonstrating that he is, indeed, interested in small technology-based business within the Southeastern Louisiana District.
