Who is?

Hi. I am a shipping company director, transport academic, author, family man and all round nice guy. I have worked as shipbroker, shipowner, freight trader and bulk charterer, in senior positions, with some of the largest and most disrespected (joke) companies in the world. Ask my advice on all things shipping and you will receive my blunt and always honest answer. Hang around to learn more about chartering and ship broker salaries, chartering and ship broker jobs, chartering and shipbroker recruitment agencies, cheap freight, maritime education, chartering and ship broker qualifications, become a ship broker, tips on how to be a successful bulk shipping executive, philosophy, Zen and the art of shipbroking, and much more.

Creative Shipping Solutions - Tankers

This article is great. It outlines some of the creative ways that shipowners look to preserve market rates.

It also highlights the fragile state of the current markets. Over supply of ships and strange trading patterns emerging. See if you can understand the meanings of words such as 'contango' and 'arbitrage' in a shipping context.
