Welcome to the 32nd International Maritime Hall of Fame Awards On behalf of the Maritime Association of the Port of New York & New Jersey, welcome to the 32nd Annual International Maritime Hall of Fame Awards. Tonight, we celebrate the leadership, achievement, and dedication of an industry that keeps the world connected. Maritime commerce remains essential to global trade, economic growth, and supply chain reliability.

Over the past year, the maritime sector again demonstrated resilience amid global uncertainty, trade disruptions, and changing market conditions. Ports, carriers, terminals, labor, and logistics partners worked together to keep commerce moving and supply chains strong.

At the same time, our industry continues to invest in the future through modern technology, and smarter port operations. Maritime is also receiving renewed national attention through the Maritime Action Plan, underscoring the importance of all facets of maritime to America’s economic and strategic future.

Created in 1993 by the Board of the Maritime Association, the International Maritime Hall of Fame honors individuals whose accomplishments and vision reflect the highest ideals of our profession.

Tonight, we proudly recognize four distinguished leaders: Robert P. Burke Chief Executive Officer, Ridgebury Tankers James McNamara Chief of Staff / Director of Public Relations, International Longshoremen’s Association Captain John W. Murray Chief Executive Officer, Canaveral Port Authority Ted Tregurtha President and CEO, Moran Holdings We congratulate our honorees and thank all those whose daily work makes maritime a force for prosperity, security, and progress.

Welcome, and enjoy this special evening of celebration.

WHAT IF DELIVERING FREIGHT COULD ALSO DELIVER YOUR SUSTAINABILITY GOALS?

Robert P. Burke Chief Executive Officer Ridgebury Tankers

Bob’s association with the Port of New York and New Jersey began on Long Island in the 1960s and ’70s, where he worked on the fishing and boating docks. His father owned Union Dry Dock, a tug and barge repair business in Hoboken, and both of his grandfathers were involved in NY Harbor —one sailed on Liberty ships out of Brooklyn, while the other owned the now-defunct NY based Shamrock Towing.

With little else to influence his career choice, Bob decided he wanted to own some ships—it sounded like a very cool idea. So he applied to Kings Point and Fort Schuyler. He got into Kings Point by the skin of his teeth, so he packed his sea bag and left hometraveling all the way from the south to the north shore of Long Island.

After graduating, he shipped out as a Third Officer aboard tankers. Not being enamored with endless months at sea, and realizing that sailing in circles was not the fast track to owning ships, Bob figured he had better acquire some business credentials. He had heard that an MBA would be helpful—and that business schools were the institutions that handed them out. Columbia University was apparently more impressed by his interview over a ship-to-shore radio in the middle of a storm than by his grades, so they decided to let him in.

In 1990, he joined GE Capital where he ran their Marine Finance Group. After GE, he co-founded Great Circle, a small private equity firm, which focused on port and infrastructure investments. In 2006 he became CEO of Chembulk Tankers, where he led the acquisition of 19 chemical tankers. In doing so, he became an “owner”—or, more precisely, a fraction of a fractional owner—of a number of ships.

Chembulk was sold in early 2008.

“In 2010 Bob founded Ridgebury Tankers. Ridgebury specialized in buying quality vessels in low markets and later selling them in stronger markets.”

In 2010 Bob founded Ridgebury Tankers. Initially funded by Riverstone Holdings, Ridgebury eventually owned 45 tankers involving numerous equity partners.

Known as an “asset player,” Ridgebury specialized in buying quality vessels in low markets and later selling them in stronger markets. Ridgebury sold its last tanker in 2024.

Bob and his wife, Lessley, live in Ridgefield, Connecticut. They have two adult children, Lindsley and John.

After graduating, he worked for a NY tanker owner, Marine Transport Lines, buying, selling, and chartering ships. Simultaneously, he became involved with his late father’s barge repair facility.

James A. McNamara Chief of Staff and Director of Public Relations International Longshoremen’s Association

James A. McNamara has spent more than four decades helping tell the story of the International Longshoremen’s Association and the men and women who keep America’s ports moving. A 44-year communications veteran with the 85,000-member union, Jim was appointed Director of Public Relations in August 1981 by then ILA President Teddy Gleason.

Since then, he has overseen public relations and communications for the union through major labor negotiations, industry change, and four international presidencies. In May 2021, ILA President Harold J. Daggett named him Chief of Staff.

Beyond his communications role, Jim has helped lead one of the union’s most successful charitable efforts.

In 1993, he was appointed coordinator of the ILA Children’s Fund Golf Outing, which has since helped raise more than $10 million for children’s charities.

His many honors reflect a lifetime of labor, civic, and community involvement. In 2016, the Irish Echo named him Outstanding Irish-American Labor Leader. He has also been recognized by the Boy Scouts of America, the A. Philip Randolph Institute, and numerous Irish-American organizations.

Jim’s career in journalism and communications began early. While still in high school, he covered sports for The Franklin Gazette on Long Island. At Iona College, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Communication Arts in 1977, he served as Sports Editor of the college newspaper and editor-in-chief of the annual yearbook. He later earned a master’s degree in Public Communications from Fordham University in 1981.

Before joining the ILA, Jim worked as a reporter and photographer for the Irish Echo newspaper and later served on the public relations staff of the worldwide Catholic Missionary Office in New York City.

Over the years, Jim has remained deeply involved in union service. A member of ILA Local 824 since 1981, he has represented the local as a delegate to the ILA New York-New Jersey District Council for many years. In 2025, when ILA Local 512 was established to represent staff employees at the International offices and Atlantic Coast District, Jim was elected its first president.

“James has spent more than four decades helping tell the story of the International Longshoremen’s Association and the men and women who keep America’s ports moving.”

Jim currently serves on the Executive Board of the International Maritime Hall of Fame Committee and is a member of several civic and professional organizations, including the National Press Club.

A native of Woodside, Queens, Jim lives in Westchester County, New York, with his wife of 49 years, Alice. They are the proud parents of Elizabeth and grandparents of Gabriella, Luke, and Lily.
