Where Ocean Power Meets Industrial Precision

Built on the Water,
Forged in Fire
Nestled in the maritime heart of Ocean City, Maryland, Shelly Ii Charters has grown from a modest welding shop into a comprehensive marine services powerhouse. We understand that every vessel represents more than just steel and aluminumโit embodies the dreams, livelihoods, and ambitions of its owner.
Our team lives and breathes the maritime lifestyle. We know the unique challenges that salt water, humidity, and offshore conditions place on metal structures. That's why every weld we lay, every fabrication we complete, and every charter we operate is built to outlast the elements.
