In dieser Angelegenheit
As COVID-19 gripped the planet in March, a “gangway up” order by the Military Sealift Command confined thousands of civilian mariners to U.S. Navy ships around the world. Six months later, “civmars” were still chained to their jobs — if not physically restricted — by coronavirus-related circumstances. In Professional Mariner’s October/November issue, we examine the mariners' plight and the response by officials. We also take a look at the growing use of aerial drones for safer ship inspections; a Great Lakes ballast water dispute that’s pitting American shipping interests against Canada; and the tug-assisted voyage of a World War II destroyer escort down the Hudson River. Plus industry-leading casualty coverage for North America.
