The U.S. Navy decides that risking actual danger isn't part of their job description anymore 🚢💨, leaving ships to play "hot potato" in the Hormuz Strait. Meanwhile, #Australia shows how it's done by banning ships like a bouncer at a nightclub 🚫🎉.

We spend all this time mapping every rock and reef so ships can sail safely, but you can’t map out human greed or negligence. When one of these 'ghost ships' goes down or blows up, it’s the local ecosystems and the honest mariners who pay the price. The ocean isn't a rug you can just sweep your problems under.

Is it time we treat 'maritime transparency' as a life-safety issue instead of just a political one?

Breakthrough Metal Tubes Promise Unsinkable Structures and Wave Energy Capture

Scientists made metal tubes that float even when broken. This could make ships safer and help capture energy from ocean waves.

Heroes of the Sea

The RNLI flag flies in Ballycotton Harbour.

The RNLI operates one of Ireland’s busiest lifeboat stations at Ballycotton, which launched 57 times in 2023 alone, rescuing 49 people and assisting 67 others. The station operates an all-weather lifeboat capable of handling the most challenging sea conditions off the Cork coast. Ballycotton RNLI has a proud history dating back to 1858, and the station’s crews have been awarded numerous medals for gallantry, including gold medals for particularly heroic rescues. The RNLI is a charity that relies entirely on voluntary donations and is crewed by unpaid volunteers who undergo extensive training to perform rescues in some of the most dangerous maritime conditions around the British and Irish coasts.

Dandy article for anybody with a general interest in modern #MaritimeNavigation. The backgrounding sections are a true treat.

For a #SalishSea fleet I work with we've inserted geofencing to avoid interfering with #orca pods. #GPS data collected from #NMEA bus fed into a flea-sized #MCU running with a small database and a simple alorithm driving audio/visual alert suffices for vessels without native #MFD capacity for this. Crude but effective. :-)
