They are pictured with one of the company's biggest ever export orders – a £3.8 million pilot vessel Nadoha II ordered by Kenya Ports Authority and which will be shipped to Mombassa.

Mr Lewis said: "Business is going well. We were delighted to be awarded the contract with the Kenyan Port Authorities and we look forward to receiving their feedback once Nadoha II arrives safely."

Mustang Marine employs 92 people at its Dockyard base and has already exported 3 boats to China and works with UK-based clients such as the Environment Agency.

Mr Lewis added: "Our site is currently undergoing an expansion, which includes an upgrade of the facilities and as a result the capabilities of the yard. This development will assist with the growth into new areas of business such as windfarm support vessels, whilst being able to maintain our core business of pilot boats, work boats and survey vessels."

South Pembrokeshire MP Simon Hart added: "Mustang Marine is a wonderful example of a local company with a global presence, it has created a lot of high quality jobs and proves that Pembrokeshire is among the best when it comes to maritime engineering."
