Earlier a honeymoon couple from South Korea were rescued from low down in the ship where they had been trapped and unable to make their way up onto the decks with other passengers. At least one other person remained on board waiting to be rescued. Search parties heard him yesterday calling for help but hadn’t yet managed to locate or identify the man.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Rescued passengers told of panic and chaos on board the ship, and claimed that regulation lifeboat drills had not bee carried out but were scheduled for the next morning.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;“In this, the centenary of the loss of the Titanic, major nostalgia industry is already in full flow – but it is essential that everyone recognises that the Titanic offers lessons for today and that there are contemporary resonances that should not be lost,” said Nautilus’ general secretary Mark Dickinson.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In particular, Nautilus says it is concerned about the rapid recent increases in the size of passenger ships – with the average tonnage doubling over the past decade.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;“Many ships are now effectively small towns at sea, and the sheer number of people onboard raises serious questions about evacuation,” Mr Dickinson pointed out.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6YbY7ykjPEI/TxQ5yWnvGhI/AAAAAAAAWZ8/j9t8aGSB_8s/s1600/19-07-2006+015.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6YbY7ykjPEI/TxQ5yWnvGhI/AAAAAAAAWZ8/j9t8aGSB_8s/s400/19-07-2006+015.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;“Nautilus is by no means alone in voicing concern at underlying safety issues arising from the new generation of ‘mega-ships’ – whether they be passenger vessels carrying the equivalent of a small town or containerships with more than 14,000 boxes onboard. Insurers and salvors have also spoken about the way in which the sheer size and scale of such ships presents massive challenges for emergency services, evacuation, rescue, and salvage - and we should not have to wait for a major disaster until these concerns are addressed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;“The growth in the size of such ships has also raised questions about their watertight integrity and fire-fighting protection,” Dickinson added. “In an address to a conference on the safety of large passenger ships in 2000, the then secretary-general of the International Maritime Organisation, William O’Neil, cited 12 passenger ship accidents in the previous six years and noted “…in retrospect we can see that it was to some extent a matter of luck – good weather, calm seas, and other ships in the vicinity, for example – that very few lives were lost.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;“We believe that more attention needs to be given to such issues as the adequacy of life-saving appliances, and the quality and quantity of crews and their training and experience in operating these vessels and dealing with emergency situations, including evacuation,” Mr Dickinson said.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;According to Nautilus it is essential that inquiries into the Costa Concordia grounding examine reports of an electrical problem onboard – an issue on which the union raised concern following an explosion and loss of power onboard Cunard’s Queen Mary 2.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It is essential that ships are built for safety, with adequate redundancy rather than a prescriptive minimum, the Union argues.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It says the inquiries should also address human factor issues including seafarers’ working hours and adequate manning of bridge and engine room. Investigations also need to focus on crew competence and training issues.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Union is calling for a thorough review of regulations governing the construction and operation of passenger vessels - in particular, standards of stability and watertight integrity. Attention needs to be paid to existing evacuation systems and more innovative systems for abandonment.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Yesterday the BBC reported experts as saying they are puzzled as to why such a modern and well-equipped vessel should have run aground in well-charted waters.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The report described the ship as having been in calm waters sailing along a familiar route. The mystery is why it diverted from its course by between 3 and 4 miles, and why the ship capsized so quickly. “This will be central for investigators trying to establish the cause of the accident.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It says the investigation will focus on why a modern ship, “with the latest safety equipment, travelling on the same route it travels 52 times every year, seemingly veered off course and hit what the cruise company has described as ‘a big rock’.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;“There are a large number of possibilities ranging from human error, to technical failure, to a combination of the two. “It is possible the crew simply made a mistake and steered off course. They may have been misled by faulty navigation equipment.” The ship’ master is reported to have said that the rock which the ship hit is not on any chart currently in use.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What is known is that the accident occurred while some passengers were still at dinner in the various restaurants. Others were being entertained at a magician’s show in the theatre up in front of the ship. When the collision occurred and the ship began to list, the magician disappeared and some passengers said they thought it was all part of the show.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Others would have been in their cabins or staterooms, or on deck. Passengers described a long rumbling grating noise coming from underneath the ship. It was later discovered that a 41m gash had opened part of the lower hull, admitting the sea and leading to the ship ultimately capsizing. The collision was followed by all electrical power being lost, which added to the chaos among passengers. About an hour later, with the ship’s list becoming pronounced, the order was given to abandon ship but by then the list was too great for lifeboats on one side to be lowered.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;A number of passengers or crew jumped overboard amid some reports of panic among passengers. Later reports said the master of the ship had left the vessel before all his passengers were safely in lifeboats or had been lifted ashore.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The captain, Francesco Schettino, and first officer, Ciro Ambrosio, have meanwhile been arrested and could face multiple homicide charges and having abandoned the ship before the passengers were rescued, the Italian police and media reported.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Costa Cruises, the Carnival Corporation division that operates the Costa Concordia has begun to apportion the blame, saying “It seems that the commander made errors of judgement that had serious consequences,” while adding that he had not followed company procedures in his management of the emergency.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Carnival Corporation, the owner of Costa Cruises said in a statement that it was deeply saddened by the accident and was working to fully understand the cause of what happened.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It said that “on 13 January 2012, Costa Cruises’ vessel, the Costa Concordia, departed from Civitavecchia, Italy with approximately 3,200 passengers and 1,000 crew members on a seven-day voyage. At approximately 10:00pm CET, the vessel struck [a] rock off the coast of Isola del Giglio, Italy and sustained significant damage causing the ship to list severely. The order was given to abandon ship and deploy the lifeboats.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;One of the drawbacks of accident enquiries is that they are conducted by the flag state concerned – in this case Italy. With passenger ships such as Costa Concordia carrying a large number of people from other parts of the world it might be preferable if a neutral body was appointed by the IMO to look into such incidents and accidents. There is sometimes too much national pride involved for total confidence that all flag states will set about understanding and explain all the relevant facts.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;An accident such as this one can take up to a year before the inquiry reports are completed, despite the existence of a so-called ‘blackbox’ which contains a large amount of technical and human information up to the moment of the collision and capsizing. This includes voice monitoring from the bridge.

Carnival Corp, which owns Costa Cruises as part of its 100-liner empire, has now had a 16% drop in stock value (in London, of course) and, while there are questons about the $650 million CONCORDIA, they forsee a minimum of $100 in claims, rescue, expensses, etc ... the 114,000-ton ship was insured, as of Friday, for $515 million ... and of course there has been an immediate drop in general bookings, and not only for the 14-ship Costa fleet, but all others ... vacationers momentarily loose faith, some quickly scuttling travel plans.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;But aspects of the story are not entirely new:  when the American liner EXCALIBUR left NY in June 1950, for example, she went off course, just off Brooklyn no less, rammed a freighter &amp;amp; soon flooded and all but sank herself.   The Captain, it was said, in the later investigation, wanted to wave goodbye to his wife &amp;amp; so veered off course ... and when the big liner CONSTITUTION was arriving, again in NY harbor, in March 1959, she sliced a Norwegian tanker in two in foggy conditions.   Seems the liner was going far too fast because the Captain wanted to make an 11am dentist appm't in Manhattan ... and when the cruise liner RIVIERA was burning &amp;amp; sinking off Cuba in April 1966, the Italian capt &amp;amp; his officers were in the first 2 lifeboats, with the ship's safe onboard no less and, it was said, the monies were already divided among them before even reaching shore.  There are many other tales as well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Today, I have been tracked down &amp;amp; asked to appear on a TV show in nearby Manchester (that's England too, of course) and a live radio show in London, and of course all regarding &amp;amp; commenting on the COSTA CONCORDIA tragedy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Photo of COSTA CONCORDIA in Lisbon on her maiden cruise, July 2006.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Texto de Bill Miller e imagens LMC /Text by Bill Miller and images copyright L.M.Correia.

Not only is it the 100th anniversary of the sinking of&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Titanic&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;but some of the details are scarily similar: a 950-foot gash in the ship’s hull that looks like someone tried to open it with a can opener coupled with people jumping in the water, the crew unable to launch many of the ship’s lifeboats and utter panic.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;I attended this ship’s splashy Italian christening in 2006, toured half-built ships in dozens of visits to European shipyard,&amp;nbsp;

Seas were calm and the Italian officers certainly knew this itinerary well since&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Concordia&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;sails on this fixed itinerary each week.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; On board the vessels were 3200 passengers and a crew of 1000.&amp;nbsp; International maritime laws stipulate that a mandatory lifeboat drill must take place within 24 hours of departing the port of embarkation and, as is quite common in this industry,&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Concordia’s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;was scheduled the following morning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;Shortly before 10:00 p.m. there was a sudden “boom and crash” followed by loss of electricity as water began spilling into the ship.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Costa Concordia&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;immediately started to list and passengers in the main dining room report that dishes and glasses crashed to the floor.&amp;nbsp; An announcement from the bridge told passengers not to panic, that everything was under control.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;But passengers and crew did panic &amp;nbsp; There are reports of people being shoved down stairways as people raced to their staterooms to don life jackets.&amp;nbsp; After 45 minutes the order to abandon ship created more chaos since passengers didn’t know where to go.&amp;nbsp; In an&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/57893000/jpg/_57893079_013706776-1.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;interview&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;one passenger said he was unable to board a lifeboat and swam to shore while a&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-16565838" target="_blank"&gt;video&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;taken on board a lifeboat illustrates how terrified its passengers were.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Because the ship was listing many lifeboats couldn’t be launched.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;While it may be true that the only real threat to a cruise ship is fire, there are clearly two other factors which can turn a cruise into a disaster:&amp;nbsp; technical problems and human error.&amp;nbsp; An example of the first is&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Carnival Splendor&lt;/em&gt;, which lost power in 2010 off the coast of Mexico.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; While the ship sat in the ocean for days there was nothing remotely frightening or dangerous about the experience.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; As for human error, we’ve seen that since the first human went to sea.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;Again, nobody knows what caused this terrible accident.&amp;nbsp; But several maritime experts interviewed about&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Costa Concordia&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;expressed the a concern — ships carrying thousands of people have become too large to evacuate everyone safely.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;For further information……….&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;BBC has the most comprehensive information and&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-16562715" target="_blank"&gt;video interviews&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;I was very dismayed to read that ships in Costa Cruises (headquartered in Rome) fleet have had a larger than normal number of mishaps.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; See the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/most-popular/2012/01/14/costa-cruise-ship-company-has-long-record-of-accidents-115875-23699140/" target="_blank"&gt;report&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;in the Daily Mirror (UK)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto CruiseCritics e imagens LMC /Text CruiseCritics and images copyright L.M.Correia.

Tudo aconteceu cerca das 22H00 locais, 21H00 em Portugal, e o navio havia largado horas antes de Civitavecchia, o porto de cruzeiros próximo de Roma, num cruzeiros de 7 dias. Hoje devia estar em Savona, o porto base da Costa onde grande parte dos passageiros ia desembarcar. Dos cerca de mais de 4000 passageiros e tripulantes a bordo, há a registar pelo menos 6 mortos, dezenas de feridos, alguns graves, e muito possivelmente o paquete estará perdido.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hY51u-qS6RI/TxFRRoqd8lI/AAAAAAAAWXs/t4MgVXePyHA/s1600/codys+concordia+imclinata+incidente+morti+foto.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="262" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-hY51u-qS6RI/TxFRRoqd8lI/AAAAAAAAWXs/t4MgVXePyHA/s400/codys+concordia+imclinata+incidente+morti+foto.PNG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Não há ainda informação para as causas desta tragédia que incluiu cenas de pânico a bordo e muitas dificuldades para localizar e salvar passageiros idosos e com mobilidade reduzida.

A vocação era a de construir grandes navios tanques, mas as mudanças verificadas na economia mundial com os choques petrolíferos na década de 1970 comprometeram o sucesso do estaleiro, que em 1975 foi nacionalizado e passou a dedicar uma maior atenção à reparação naval.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NXPc2Ja9H-g/Twz5ZHFjf5I/AAAAAAAAWSw/bLwrkxZJb6A/s1600/DSC_1042.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NXPc2Ja9H-g/Twz5ZHFjf5I/AAAAAAAAWSw/bLwrkxZJb6A/s400/DSC_1042.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MhusfOzll2o/Twz5h6k6k_I/AAAAAAAAWS8/3ZKOBoZ0iJo/s1600/DSC_1064.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MhusfOzll2o/Twz5h6k6k_I/AAAAAAAAWS8/3ZKOBoZ0iJo/s400/DSC_1064.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Fotografias efectuadas a 1 de Janeiro de 2012, com apenas três navios no estaleiro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Lx5IbOOHKng/Twz5oTCI_PI/AAAAAAAAWTE/j3sZrswA_v4/s1600/DSC_1067.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Lx5IbOOHKng/Twz5oTCI_PI/AAAAAAAAWTE/j3sZrswA_v4/s400/DSC_1067.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

He has been able to share his fantastic knowledge on ships and his books are popular and internationally accepted by all kinds of ship enthusiasts. Bill sends regularly his day by day memories while on board his ships, the great ships he sails and lectures on, the great ships he writes...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Here it is the lates Bill Miller writings registered on the QM2... (LMC). Front cover of one of his newest books now on the final stage of production.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Tue Jan 3rd  Red Hook/Brooklyn&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;:  Sparkling lights!   Evening departure on the Queen Mary 2, always a favorite ship.   Otherwise, a rather unusual wintertime eastbound crossing to Southampton, England, but which is actually part of the ship’s 3-month cruise around-the-world.  I disembark in England, after 7 days, and then the recently refitted, upgraded, 2,600-bed Queen heads for warmer waters, to South Africa, the Indian Ocean &amp;amp; beyond.   She’s just about full-up on this crossing,  by the way, and that includes 280 full world cruisers (another 100 are joining at Sydney after crossing over from the Queen Elizabeth).  There are 700 passengers in transit from the prior Holiday Caribbean cruise &amp;amp; 1,800 boarding today.   Lots of friendly &amp;amp; familiar faces onboard as always (including Tom Cassidy, Mitchell Mart, .Tom Michel from Lincoln Center, Ernie Raab, singer  Dale Christian &amp;amp; others too numerous to mention).    Otherwise, good to settle-in onboard &amp;amp; enjoy the pleasures and sheer comfort of this wonderful ship.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wed Jan 4th Atlantic Ocean&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;:  At the podium!   There are 5 speakers onboard including an Arabist (that’s a specialist on all things Arab), an adventurer (tales of dangerous trekking around the Arctic, Antarctic, etc) and General the Lord Dannatt, (the former head of Britain’s Royal Army &amp;amp; Constable of the Tower of London these days and yes, the Crown Jewels are kept there &amp;amp; so he is appointed personally by the Queen!).  Otherwise, at dinner, Des &amp;amp; I have a cozy table for two, but in the center of the otherwise soaring Britannia Restaurant &amp;amp; so great fun  (including the good advantage of watching all the other passengers come &amp;amp; go).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Thu Jan 5th Atlantic Ocean&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;:  Bet you didn’t know?  Bell bottom trousers were a huge hit in the 1960s &amp;amp; ‘70s, but actually date from the early 1800s.  Sailors wore them &amp;amp; so they could be more easily rolled-up (mostly to the knees) when washing the decks.  They had, it was said, an added purpose:   when washed overboard or abandoning ship, they could be used as a life preserver by knotting the legs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Memory lane!  Now retired, Gerald grew up &amp;amp; lived for many years in that most charming of charming cities:  San Francisco.   “I always loved ocean liners, collected things from them &amp;amp; of course always dreamed of sailing in them,” he told me.  “But in the 1960s, I was still at school &amp;amp; money was tight.  So I did short trips, sometimes very short trips.  Once, I sailed on the famous Lurline, going just overnight from San Francisco to Los Angeles.  The airfare was then $13, but the ship cost $45.  But it was well worth of it.  I also took some of the big P&amp;amp;O liners that called at San Francisco, ships such as the Canberra, Oriana, Oronsay &amp;amp; Arcadia.  I would sail for 2 days up to Vancouver or the reverse, and the fare, well down in bottom-deck tourist class quad, was about $25.  I savored every minute on these ships &amp;amp; stood up on the open decks, counting the stars, feeling the sea breezes &amp;amp; staying until midnight.  It really didn’t matter about the food &amp;amp; service, but it was about the total experience --- being on the ship, moving, that feel of the vibrating engines.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;News desk!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;   I used to buy lots &amp;amp; lots of film, yellow colored rolls with names like Kodachrome &amp;amp; Ektachrome.   It was such fun taking 35mm slides with my Honeywell-Pentex camera &amp;amp; to this day I have a collection of, well, maybe 25,000.  But changing times --- today, I read that Kodak, the General Motors of American film, is filing for bankruptcy.  Who would have thought!  Later, by coincidence, I run into Mary Ann from Rochester, home of Kodak.  She said:  I did 37 years with Kodak &amp;amp; so I had tears in my eyes when I read of the bankruptcy.  It should never have happened.   I’m just heartbroken.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eastern brocade!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  Dinner with Charlotte &amp;amp; friends tonight (she’s a NY-based artist &amp;amp; longtime plotter &amp;amp; planner at the UN) at her big, round table.   She is pure charm, very open &amp;amp; of course very friendly.  But she’s a study too: a grand dress in multi-colored brocade (mostly reds &amp;amp; greens &amp;amp; then some gold) and all very of Queen of Afghanistan.  There’s the matching jewelry --- big &amp;amp; lavish &amp;amp; very Indian maharaja . And the total effect capped with by a silvery fastener, a twisted mix that resembles, say, more simplistic Tibetan or at least something from that East Asian neighborhood.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Musical high notes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;:   Great new show tonight dubbed Hit Me With A Hot Note --- a very spirited, high energy review from the Cotton Club &amp;amp; Duke Ellington to Motown &amp;amp; Earth, Wind and Fire.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Fri Jan 6th the North Atlantic:  Moody day:  drizzly rain, wet outer decks, old dears huddled in the lounges but a few sturdy souls (they must be Germans!) do laps around the massive promenade.   It is “floating university” today with 4 speakers.   I kick-off at 9:45 this morning (a very good crowd considering we advanced the clock &amp;amp; lost an hour last night) while the other topics are US/UK relations, Sun, Sea, Sand &amp;amp; Spies that includes the likes of Lawrence of Arabia &amp;amp; then adventurous tales of sledding in the frozen Arctic.  Lots of very nice, often very interesting comments (and as always) from the guests.  But a sturdy old Englishman tells me:  For an American, for someone from “across the Pond,”  you seem to know an awful lot about British ships &amp;amp; even British history. Quite strange really. Another chap, also British, but more firmly notes:  Cunard, Cunard, Cunard.  Why is everything about Cunard.  Their reputation is inflated, over-stated &amp;amp; they really weren’t all that important.  And after all, the North Atlantic is really quite a miserable run.   (Later, I uncover that he sailed, for 25 years, for another British passenger line, Union-Castle, and which sailed on the sun-filled African trades, and so his loyalties.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Mail under the door&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;!  A guest from New Canaan, Connecticut thoughtfully writes a note: I hope that your voyage is going well and, for me, your lectures are a highlight ... Your clear, crisp, Kennedy-ish voice certainly resonates throughout that theatre when you speak!!! I really do LOVE the sound of you when you talk!!! It's very "musical" !!! Your poise at the podium is a sight to behold ... the dark blue blazer, the red socks, sometimes even red shoes ... and, might I add, flashing, light-catching rings of what seems to be, from my seat high above, at least “a few thousand diamonds”.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Chinese stir-fry!  Lunch with a well-spoken, but retired former airline pilot (from British Airways &amp;amp; later, with more pride on his part, with Cathay Pacific) who wants to  become a shipboard speaker, “break into the business” as he puts it.  Cunard, he says, has “kept me waiting” for 2 years.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;Curtain up&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;!  Showtime tonight with the superb Dale Kristien, a longtime friend from Crystal, but now on one of her first stints with Cunard.  Dale has a record or two under her vast red gown:  she played Christine in Phantom of the Opera for 4 ½ years (or 1,700 performances &amp;amp; including ones with Michael Crawford).  She also did 2 years (as the not-to-be-trusted maid) on the TV soap Days of Our Lives and I still chuckle when recalling her summation:   Sometimes I was the good maid &amp;amp; sometimes I wasn’t.  Sometimes I answered the door &amp;amp; sometimes I didn’t.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sat Jan 7th the North Atlantic&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;: French colonial:  A nice breakfast chat with Nancy, an American  on her first Atlantic crossing in almost 50 years.  She informs me:  I did those summers in Europe, as lots of us did in those days, and crossed (in the early ‘60s) on the Flandre, United States &amp;amp; Constitution.  But I also did 2 years in Peace Corps &amp;amp; was based mostly in Morocco.   Once, we also did a trip along the hump of Africa, to Senegal &amp;amp; Liberia, and we sailed in fourth class on an old French ship (we later play the “memory game” and she remembers it was named the Foch).  We sailed down in fourth class, slept on deck &amp;amp; under canvas tarps and were given portable mats (for sleeping) that were filled with straw.   It was pretty grim but all we could afford.  The food was mostly evil --- vile coffee, hard bread &amp;amp; animals cooked in entirety including heads &amp;amp; legs.  My friend &amp;amp; I were the only Americans and we ‘felt’ what seemed to be a thousand Moroccan eyes staring at us &amp;amp; all at the same time.  Everyone was crammed together, hundreds in all &amp;amp; of course the ship was quite small [only 9,000 tons for 700 passengers plus freight and above, there were first, second &amp;amp; third class quarters and each with descending comfort &amp;amp; amenities as passage fares lessened]. The Moroccan men sat cross-legged in their long white robes &amp;amp; mostly smoked very pungent cigarettes.  By night, the deck lights were dim. It was all like some scene in a back alley in Marrakesh. Fortunately, the seas were calm.  But a French man, a ship’s junior officer in an open-shirt (it was very, very warm onboard) and white pants, appeared &amp;amp; suggested that my friend &amp;amp; I sleep in a rope locker, which was an open-air area but large enough for the pair of us.   It was separated from the deck &amp;amp; of course all those Moroccans.   He hinted that it might be best, especially during the night.  Daytime, he inferred, was far less worrisome.   I think I was on that ship for 2 or 3 days, but it seemed longer.  Looking back, and in the golden glow of youth, it all seems like a part of an exciting time.   Of course, working for the Peace Corps in Northwest Africa wasn’t life at the Ritz.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;The good silver at lunch&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:  Tom Cassidy has thoughtfully invited us for drinks (at noon) in the Queens Grill Lounge &amp;amp; then arranged a six-star lunch in the ultra-fancy Todd English Grill.  Very nice guest list that includes Bob Crimmins (who collects vintage Cadillac’s back in New Jersey), the vivacious Shirley (who lives &amp;amp; was a dancer in London, on the Isle of Wight &amp;amp; also cruises the world) &amp;amp; 87-yr old Shaw Taylor (an actor who studied with Joan Collins &amp;amp; later starred in the British TV series Police Five &amp;amp; others).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Pass the peanuts!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  Later in the day, with just hours in between, Tom kindly hosts a drinks party (as the British guests would call it) &amp;amp; so a nice mix, chatter, etc.  Very kindly, he does it at 5:30, just before the early round of dinner.   He notes:  Bill is obsessed with first sitting!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

Em Setembro de 1837 esse serviço passou a ser subsidiado pelo governo britânico, permitindo estabilizar uma operação comercial difícil até então. Hoje a P&amp;amp;O Cruises integra o Grupo Carnival, mantendo a imagem tradicional associada a Inglaterra, e continua ser presença assídua em Lisboa e em outros portos de cruzeiros portugueses, como o Funchal, Ponta Delgada ou Leixões.

Countless members of Royal families, aristocracy, politicians, stars, musicians and celebrities from around the globe have featured on her passenger list.

Two other large new passenger liners with maiden voyages scheduled for that ill fated summer of 1939, the Royal Mail Line's ANDES and &amp;nbsp;Cie Sud-Atlantique's PASTEUR did not make it: ANDES would have sailed on her maiden voyage on 26 September and the French PASTEUR on 16 September, but war changer it all.&lt;br /&gt;My dear friend Eugénio Cavalheiro considered a crossing to New York to attend the EXPO and so contacted Cunard in May but in the end did not go. The reply from Cunard is now a piece of memorabilia in my collection.&lt;br /&gt;RMS MAURETANIA served as a troop transport during WW2 and returned to Cunard Atlantic service and cruising.

(Carregar sobre a imagem para a ampliar e ter melhor leitura).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Por entre cruzadas múltiplas de regeneração dos mares lusos prossegue alegremente a desmaritimização efectiva de Portugal e da Europa com mais um estaleiro português fechado: o último da Figueira da Foz, pois o mesmo aconteceu anteriormente à Foznave.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;A Indústria Naval, nomeadamente no que se refere à construção metálica, demorou décadas a desenvolver e a afirmar-se em Portugal, em especial a partir da década de 1930, quando os estaleiros do Porto de Lisboa foram integrados no Grupo CUF (1937), se passou o Arsenal de Marinha para o Alfeite (1939) e se formaram estaleiros navais em Aveiro (São Jacinto), Figueira da Foz e Viana do Castelo.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Dos Estaleiros Navais do Mondego saíram muitas dezenas de navios para as marinhas de pesca, guerra e comércio, principalmente para Portugal. Esta empresa chegou a ser considerada um estaleiro de vanguarda em termos de desenvolvimento de projectos e construção, não só no que se refere a navios de pesca, mas também rebocadores, dragas, etc. Na década de 1990 especializou-se na construção de navios em alumínio, graças à encomenda de quatro catamarãs por parte da Transtejo em colaboração com estaleiros ingleses.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Porque é que a Indústria Naval está a fechar as portas em Portugal e na Europa? As respostas devem ser várias mas em síntese o fenómeno resulta da falta de competitividade local face à Globalização e à incapacidade de continuarmos a inovar como alternativa à construção naval barata nos países emergentes. A crise do momento já fez compreender que o desmantelamento da capacidade industrial foi um erro grave em Portugal. Com o desaparecimento dos Estaleiros Navais do Mondego perde-se mais um desses meios e perde-se (já estava perdido há tempos, com a redução de actividade do estaleiro nos tempos mais recentes) conhecimento prático. E assim prossegue alegremente a desmaritimização efectiva de Portugal.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

Na ocasião o palestrante fará uma pequena homenagem a três personalidades fundamentais associadas à existência continuada do FUNCHAL: os Armadores Srs. Vasco Bensaude e George P. Potamianos, e o Sr. Almirante ECN Rogério de Oliveira, responsável pelo projecto do paquete e um dos mais ilustres arquitectos navais europeus do século XX. Será ainda feita uma referência à antiga Empresa Insulana de Navegação que em Dezembro completaria 140 anos se ainda existisse, pois foi constituída nos Açores em Dezembro de 1871. Este evento terá lugar no auditório do Hotel Porto Santa Maria, no Funchal.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Na próxima Segunda-feira, 28 de Novembro, pelas 17H00, será inaugurada uma exposição alusiva ao paquete FUNCHAL no átrio principal da Câmara Municipal da cidade do Funchal.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

O ambiente era de algum desalento face à realidade marítima nacional em contraponto com as carreiras que a maior parte dos presentes, oficiais de Marinha Mercante reformados, viveram, quer na marinha de pesca quer no comércio.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;De entre os intervenientes falou o ainda Presidente do IPTM, com anúncio oficial de extinção por parte do actual Governo. O Dr. João de Carvalho, antigo oficial de Marinha Mercante e gestor experimentado com muitos anos de actividade ligada ao "shipping" nacional referiu que nos últimos 30 anos a frota da marinha de pesca se reduziu em 30 por cento e a da marinha de comércio em 80 por cento, acentuando que hoje Portugal gasta anualmente 500 milhões de euros em pagamentos de fretes a navios estrangeiros. No processo de desmaritimização associado à nossa decadência marítima perderam-se 50.000 postos de trabalho. João de Carvalho chamou poesia à politica oficial para a Marinha Mercante, que em meu entender é nula. Nula porque a actual política oficial do Mar não contempla a Marinha Mercante, que está em vias de desaparecer de vez. O desmembramento do IPTM é no nosso entender, um disparate e parece que resulta de uma decisão precipitada, como aliás parece ter acontecido há meses com o anúncio oficial de extinção da PARQUEXPO, de que não se ouviu mais falar.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;A actual política do Mar esquece-se sempre da Marinha Mercante desde há décadas. Por ignorância inocente ou resultado de interesses inconfessáveis? Como é possível descurar sistematicamente assuntos tão importantes e estratégicos como os Transportes Marítimos? Volta Américo Thomaz, fazes muita falta na Junta Nacional da Marinha Mercante.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

Os Estados Unidos da América lideraram este processo com a construção em série de 2500 cargueiros de 10.000 TDW da classe LIBERTY e diversas centenas de petroleiros classe T2, para além de muitas outras classes, como a classe VICTORY, já mais no final do conflito. O Canadá também participou deste esforço e uma das classes de navios de origem canadiana foi a classe FORT dos quais o FORT FIDLER, de 1943 foi comprado em 1946 pela Sociedade Geral e reconstruído no Tejo com o nome ALCOUTIM, integrando a frota da SG até Outubro de 1971, quando foi vendido para sucata em Espanha.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Durante alguns anos o maior navio da Sociedade Geral, o ALCOUTIM foi construído em Vancouver e entregue a Inglaterra em Maio de 1943 com o nome FORT FIDLER. Durante a guerra o navio foi torpedeado no Mediterrâneo evitando-se o seu afundamento. O navio acabou por arribar a Lisboa com avaria grossa no casco e terminada a guerra foi comprado pela SG. A recuperação do ALCOUTIM no estaleiro da CUF foi na altura um feito da engenharia naval portuguesa e obrigou à reconstrução parcial do casco e instalação de uma proa nova.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

Os navios da CTM tinham as suas tripulações rendidas diariamente utilizando uma lancha ou rebocador qu largava pelas 8H15 das Escadinhas da Sanidade, à Ponta da Rocha e muitas vezes lá ia eu comas minhas Nikons à caça de imagens e navios.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;O CEDROS fazia parte de um grupo de três unidades gémeas compradas em 1972 à DFDS pela Empresa Insulana de Navegação que receberam os nomes LIMA, CEDROS e GORGULHO. Os três navios fizeram essencialmente a carreira das Ilhas mas operaram também para o Norte da Europa. Vinham a Lisboa antes de serem portugueses com a bandeira dinamarquesa ao serviço da DFDS pois faziam a carreira do Mediterrâneo, sendo então seis gémeos. Os outros três foram vendidos a armadores italianos na mesma época. Em 1985 o CEDROS e o LIMA foram adquiridos pela COMPONAVE enquanto o GORGULHO foi comprado pela Transinsular.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

The luxury cruise ship arrived on 16 November 2011 in Hamburg and has been dry-docked. The overhaul and refurbishment work at Dock 11 will take four weeks to complete, with redelivery to P&amp;amp;O scheduled for 17 December 2011. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The work planned on the ship is quite extensive and includes many different areas. This gives the "MS Oriana," a so-called "duck tail"; for the ship which means a more stable position in the water, thus increasing the comfort of passengers. In addition, this modification allows for an increase in cabin number. Some public spaces are transformed in the course of work on indoor and outdoor booths. In addition, the pool area will be modernized and upgraded by a new bar and lounge areas are built.  &lt;br /&gt;The maintenance work includes the expansion and overhaul of the drive shaft at the rear. In addition, an overhaul and replacement of engines, machinery and piping, and electrical and control systems is also on the program. Finally, the ballast tanks of the ship will be inspected, emptied and cleaned with steel plates replaced, while various steel works complete the job. &lt;br /&gt;Photo of ORIANA in Hamburg on 17 November 2011. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

O navio está a ser reparado na doca flutuante nº 11 onde entrou a 16 de Novembro, devendo a intervenção ficar concluída a 17 de Dezembro próximo.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Actualmente com 16 anos, o ORIANA foi construído em Papenburg no estaleiro Meyer, Vai agora sofrer alterações significativas no aspecto exterior e a nível de interiores, com a modificação de toda a zona da popa e a construção de mais camarotes. Para compensar a estabilidade, vão ser acrescentados à popa novos blocos de aço conhecidos como "caudas de pato" - duck tail - e vão ser efectuadas intervenções técnicas ao nível dos motores, renovação de tanques de lastro com substituição de chapas de aço, construção de novos camarotes, etc. Diversos espaços públicos interiores e exteriores serão igualmente alterados. Se tudo indica que com esta modernização o ORIANA vai perder a sua elegância e harmonia estética original, por outro lado este investimento permitirá ao navio continuar mais alguns anos a operar para o mercado britânico integrado na frota da P&amp;amp;O. Recentemente circularam rumores de uma eventual transferência deste paquete para o mercado australiano.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tanUVRi8ty4/TsYU5Y514OI/AAAAAAAAVrc/5zDstnQgoHs/s1600/Oriana-BVR-2011-003.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="267" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tanUVRi8ty4/TsYU5Y514OI/AAAAAAAAVrc/5zDstnQgoHs/s400/Oriana-BVR-2011-003.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Na fotografia, enviada pelo estaleiro, pode ver-se o ORIANA em Hamburgo e, em primeiro plano os blocos de aço para acrescentar à popa.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.

Parabéns ao Luís Filipe pela persistência que sempre faz dos sonhos realidade, para partilhar o gosto dos navios e das viagens turísticas pelos mares do nosso contentamento e imaginação. Parabéns pelos primeiros quatro números já publicados e toda a força avante rumo ao segundo anos de publicação, por entre um arquipélago de grandes navios em fundo de divulgação permanente.

Pela luminosidade, parece tratar-se de uma largada em Setembro ou Outubro. O navio largava habitualmente às 18H00 da Gare Marítima da Rocha. Nesta fotografia apresenta carangueja com a bandeira nacional içada, pelo que se trata de uma imagem dos últimos anos da carreira breve deste belíssimo paquete português, pois a carangueja só foi adicionada ao mastro por volta de 1969-70.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;O SANTA MARIA vai com pintura fresca, como sempre acontecia à partida de Lisboa, incluindo na derradeira partida, para a sucata, em Junho de 1973.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Fotografia publicada no site SHIPSPOTTING por Chris Howell. A segunda imagem, de autor desconhecido, mostra o SANTA MARIA a entrar no Tejo no final de mais uma viagem à América Central.

Sempre fomos, dizem muitos, ligados ao mar. Por essa via distinguimo-nos e demos mundos ao mundo. Somos um Pais de marinheiros. Podemos ser tudo isto, mas a realidade é que quase não temos navios, os tripulantes já são uma raridade, os armadores são cada vez menos. Enfim, o negócio está-se a perder. Isto significa que o “saber fazer” que demora séculos a adquirir está a esvair-se sob os nossos olhos.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sabemos, queremos e podemos alterar esta situação?

Foi o que aconteceu &amp;nbsp;7 de Novembro em Portimão. Escondido em seco num estaleiro local, lá estava o antigo TRAFARIA PRAIA de 1927 construído em Hamburgo e que veio para Portugal em 1964 fazer a carreira da Trafaria. Hoje o velho ferry chama-se TURIMAR e faz cruzeiros no Algarve desde 1986, o nome sem imaginação a acompanhar &amp;nbsp;a descaracterização física deste antigo perseguido de Adolfo Hitler, que mandou mudar-lhe o nome original por supostas ligações culturais semitas...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Texto e imagens /Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.
