Happy Birthday, Dad

Feb 11, 2022

Today on the Ship Report, it’s my dad’s birthday. A little about him (Stu Rideout): sailor, boatbuilder, overall maritime enthusiast, and all around pretty amazing guy.  My childhood growing up on boats (and constantly working on them) and how being “the captain’s daughter” shaped my love of All Things Maritime, and set the stage for the wonderful life adventure that is The Ship Report.

Mega containership aground off Germany

Feb 04, 2022

A mega containership, the Mumbai Maersk, is aground off the coast of Germany. She’s about the same size as the Ever Given, which ran aground in the Suez Canal last year.

The ship is close to a popular tourist island destination. The accident brings into focus the difficulties of operating such large vessels.
