Honk for Seafarers

On 1 May 2020, at local time 12 noon, our fleet participated a very special Labour Day event where all ships in port sound their horn in unison. This was initiated by International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) to mark the important contribution of 1.2 million seafarers that were working during this pandemic to ensure that food, fuel and supplies continue to flow for all.

Our fleet participated in this concerted event and have sent us videos and images taken when the sounds of horns echoed through the seas and at ports. We have posted this on all our social media channels to spread the awareness that seafarers is an important contributor in fighting this pandemic.

Seafarers should be recognized as key personnel globally, so they can be granted exemptions from travel restrictions. They are as important as any frontliners!
