At Lee Ships, we know your vessel is only as strong as its crew. That’s why we deliver flexible, cost-effective crew management solutions designed for short sea shipping. From recruitment and placement to full payroll services, we take care of every detail—including crew payroll for vessels operating in UK waters. Get started from as little as £13 per day for international vessels or £20 per day for UK domestic vessels with payroll—keeping your ships efficient, compliant, and expertly crewed.
