Today we take a look at a a business story about the fallout in a port on the East Coast that recently lost container service in a disaster. In Baltimore, we saw a container ship destroy a bridge, and huge and awful consequences for that city and its people.
As that city recovers and efforts continue to clean up the debris, the loss of container service has hit small businesses there hard that used to receive inventory via container ships.
Something similar in terms of shipping, but thankfully minus the disaster, could happen in our region if the Port of Portland ends container service. We’ll take a look at the impacts on small businesses when container service abruptly ends.

Today we’ll take a look at the ongoing story of a cabin cruiser that washed ashore on the beach on the Long Beach Peninsula. It’s a story of a very lucky man and his dog, for sure – but what’s next for them, as the boat sits aground on the sand?
We’ll talk about what his options are, and how marine salvage law, and state law, handle cases like this.

Today I’ll revisit a concept I talked about on Monday’s show.. General Average – an ancient maritime principle that governs how losses in a ship disaster are shared between stakeholders. I was talking about the containership Dali and what sort of liability cargo owners on that ship could face. Turns out quite a bit. Disasters are a reason why most companies shipping cargo have insurance against this sort of event. If they don’t, it could be devastating.
