Development of world's first autonomous, zeroemission feeder postponed amid COVID-19 crisis
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the
changed global outlook, the development of the
world's first autonomous and electric container
vessel Yara Birkeland is put on hold, Norwegian
company Yara announced.
Yara has decided to pause further
development of the vessel and will assess next
steps together with its partners, the company
stated. The hull of the Yara Birkeland vessel was
launched to sea in Romania in February 2020. The
ship is expected to arrive at the Norwegian
shipyard in May where it will be fitted with various
control and navigation systems and undergo testing
before delivery to Yara.
Yara and technology company Kongsberg
teamed up in 2017 with the ambition to build the
world's first autonomous and zero-emission
container vessel.
Replacing 40,000 truck journeys a year, Yara
Birkeland seeks to reduce NOx and CO2 emissions
and improve road safety in a densely populated
urban area in Norway.

Passenger ship hits rock
A passenger ship was inbound in daylight and fair visibility. The Master gave the Pilot a briefing regarding the ship's manoeuvring characteristics; the ship was highly manoeuvrable and would 'turn on a dirne,' he said. The Master told the Pilot that a three-degree helm order would create a rate of turn of 10-15 degrees per minute.
The bridge team would consist of the Pilot at the con while the Master would bave overall navigational conunand. The staff captain would be in charge of communications while the first officer would be in charge of electronic navigation and collision avoidance. Finally, the second officer would be in charge of plotting the ship's position on the navigational chart,
The Pilot and the . Master discussed and agreed the intended passage plan, noting a strong flood tide that would be running astern. However, the subsequent investigation found that, due to miscommunication during the exchange, the passage inwards began with the Master and Pilot having different understandings of how the first turn would be conducted.
The ship was lined up with the leading navigation lights and entered the channel without incident. As the Pilot took the con, the Master brief ed the staff captain on the Master/ Pilot exchange and explained his understanding of how they were going to negotiate the tum to port. The rest of the bridge team were not included in this conversation and essentially relied on what they overheard.
Under the Pilot's con, the first alteration of course to port was initiated using three degrees of port helm. At this time the vessel had a speed over ground (SOG) of nearly 18 knots. The initial helm order was followed by successive increases to five and then 10 degrees of rudder.
About one minute after the initial three degree port helm order an offtrack: alarm flashed 011 the ECDIS, but this information was not brought to the attention of the Master or the Pilot. The alarm appeared only as a visual indicator on the radar screen because its audio had been muted prior to the ship entering the channel.
Even so, the Master and Pilot soon realised that the ship was proceeding dangerously close to a known rock shoal, so 20 degrees of port rudder was ordered, immediately foll owed by maximum port rudder.
About three minutes after the initial helm order of three degrees, and despite the emergency helm order, the ship's bilge keel and the starboard propeller made contact with the rock as the ship passed.
The ship was then navigated back to the centre of the channel and continued on its passage to port without further incident.
The official report on this accident discusses the concept of allowing a ship to depart from an intended track in the belief that other influences, such as tide in this case, would return the ship to the intended track. The report notes that this carries a high risk when manoeuvring large ships in narrow waterways, where margins for error are small. The report posits that there is less risk when a ship is kept strictly to the intended track by increasing or decreasing its rate of tum inresponse to the external influences such as tide and wind. This method has the advantage of being unambiguous for other members of the bridge team tasked with monitoring the progress of the ship against the planned track.

Charter, Sail, Repeat: new ventures and old favorites in the Greek Isles
By Zuzana Prochazka
On our first day, we sailed southwest nearly 50 miles 011 a nice beam reach, winding through Kolpos Idras, or the Hydra Gulf. By the end, we were running out ______ daylight, so we pulled ___ the miniscule harbor on Spetses Island. I read the guides twice, but the most I got was a warning about tl1e inner harbor being only 4ft deep, which made me suck in my stomach as we crept in. The harbor turned ______ to be a mix of private yachts, commercial boats and fishing craft, and as we were looking round I happened to notice black clouds _____ the horizon. The wind was also now picking _______, so out we went again, making a U-turn back to the bay to drop anchor with the other cruisers who'd opted to skip the draft headaches. We made it just before the gale overtook us.

SEA-FEVER
I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by, And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking, And a grey mist on the sea's face and a grey dawn breaking. I must down to the seas again, forthe call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the seagulls crying. I must down to the seas again to the vagrant gypsy life, To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife; And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover, And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.
By John Masefield (1878-1967)

career gets to meet and mingle with people of
different cultures and nationalities. This helps the
individual to understand and function better as a

automatically increases adaptability and brings

MARITIME ACCIDENTS
Accidents on Tugboats
Tugboats are those which help move huge
ships to enter docks. They are small in nature but
are powerful to ensure that the large vessels are
handled safely. But sometimes because of the
blockage of the visibility of tugboats by the larger
vessels, maritime accidents occur. Also, human
error on the part of the pilot of the tugboat can also
lead to unwanted and unexpected tugboat mishaps.
Accidents on Oil Tankers
The major cause of accidents on tankers is
explosions. Since the very nature of the materials . these tankers transport is dangerous and highly
flammable, even the most minor of explosions can
cause enormous losses. According to statistics, one
of the main reasons for oil tanker accidents
occurring is because of workers' negligence -
nearly 84-88%.
