FleetPro Passenger Ship Management announces that Dietmar Wertanzl has given his resignation and will be leaving the company at the end of November, 2014.

Wertanzl has been with the company for over four years and during that period built FleetPro’s Hotel Management Division (FleetPro Leisure) into a substantial part of the company.

“Dietmar has been a strong contributor to FleetPro’s growth and our high quality performance," says Robert Straubhaar, CEO to FleetPro Ocean, Inc. “He has been with our company for over four years and during that period secured a strong growth of the Hotel Management Division FleetPro Leisure, leaving a strong foundation for a strong future of this strategically important part of our company."

Industry veteran Johan Groothuizen will temporarily take over the role as EVP Hotel Operations and assure that a seamless transition will take place for a successor.

FleetPro Ocean (formerly ISP) and FleetPro River (formerly River Advice) manage a combined fleet of ocean-going passenger ships, expedition cruise ships and river cruise ships in excess of 60 vessels, making it the largest passenger ship management company in the world. What distinguishes FleetPro is a hands-on managing approach with extremely strong technical and top notch hotel operation expertise. This allows FleetPro to service a wide array of clients in the demanding global arena of river cruise operations, ocean-going cruising and the itinerary intensive expedition cruise segments.
