What is chartership?

Chartership is a marque of excellence, indicating that the holder has reached the highest level of their profession. The Chartered Master Mariner scheme introduces the concept to the seafaring profession for the first time.

Mariners worldwide deliver 80% of trade and are crucial to the supply chain.  This has been enhanced and more important since COVID.

The Nautical Institute’s South West England Branch will be hosting the AGM for 2020.

In my work, I travel to many parts of the globe. It is an honour and a privilege when I can also meet with members of the Nautical Institute during my travels.

To recognise the 15th Anniversary of the formation of the Branch, the Nautical Institute of Ukraine held an International Seminar and Celebratory event in Odessa in October.

The World Maritime Day theme for the year is “Empowering Women in the Maritime Community”.
This provides an opportunity to raise awareness of the importance of gender equality, in line with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, and to highlight the important – yet under-utilized – contribution of women within the maritime sector.

On the middle of February 2019, the Second National Forum of Crewing Companies of Ukraine took place. The Forum was organized under close cooperation with the Nautical Institute of Ukraine and Chamber of Shipping of Ukraine.

The newly elected President of The Nautical Institute, Captain Nick Nash FNI FRIN FRGS has pledged to help in its efforts to improve standards of shiphandling and bridge resource management (BRM).

This year AGM and Technical Seminar was hosted by Malta Branch. It is quite difficult
to find more beautiful place for such event. The only disadvantage – during every coffee
break delegates and participants had to fight strong wish to go down and jump into the
sea.
