Maersk Line boss Nils Smedegaard Andersen was in a confident mood after his carrier posted a decent US$204 million profit in the first quarter. Making a profit when Asia-Europe is a disaster and many other carriers are wallowing in red ink is impressive enough, but the Maersk CEO raised eyebrows when he addressed the rates issue. He told Reuters he had "no doubt" the carrier could increase rates from their current level of $730 to $1,481 per TEU on July 1.

Jack: Here is a Jarvis story: We were out in Guam on a West Pac. The Captain and about 15 to 20 of the crew had to go to Honolulu for a drug trial, for a drug bust we made on our previous patrol. (Another interesting story). The last thing the Captain told the XO get the ship underway tomorrow and take the Jarvis to Midway and we will meet you there. Simple enough order. Shortly after getting underway, the Exxon Valdez ran aground. The cutter (forgot which one) that was doing a North Pac fishing law enforcement patrol was diverted to be On-Seen-Commander. Meanwhile Jarvis was diverted to finish the fishery patrol leaving the Captain and others Stranded in Honolulu. Luckily they did not head to Midway before the diversion. The QM's scrambled to get our Alaskan charts up to date, as well as the rest of the ship getting ready for cold Alaska not the warm waters of the tropical Pacific. Ten days later, the Captain and crew met up with the ship in Adak, The Captain said to the XO "Can I have my ship back." An interesting highlight was the Jewish personnel prepared A Passover Seder.

    TRIBUNE n° 882 La nouvelle marine bangladaise Nicolas Picciotto Membre du pôle « Études » du Centre d’études stratégiques de la Marine (CESM). e 12 mars 2017, le Bangladesh a admis au service actif 2 sous- L marins conventionnels classe Ming, type 035G, achetés à la Chine, rallongeant ainsi la liste des pays disposant d’une force sous-marine. Image d’un sous-marin type 035G visible L’arrivée des deux bâtiments, le sur le site officiel de la Bangladesh Navy BNS Nobojatra (« Renouveau ») et le BNS Joyjatra (« Voyage »), marque une étape importante dans une modernisation plus globale de la marine bangla- daise, aux ambitions jusqu’à présent plutôt littorales. Protéger le littoral Enclavé entre l’Inde et la Birmanie, le Bangladesh dispose cependant d’une ouverture, restreinte (580 km), sur le golfe du Bengale qui lui assure à la fois un espace maritime et un accès à des ressources marines. Longtemps donc, la doctrine d’emploi des forces navales du Bangladesh a placé au premier plan la protection de cette ZEE modeste mais d’un grand apport pour ce pays pauvre et fortement peu- plé. Les limites de cette zone ont été l’objet de disputes entre Dacca et ses voisins. Seule subsiste une contestation avec la Birmanie pour une région où des gisements de gaz et de pétrole ont été découverts en 2006 : aucun des deux États ne veut céder et les accrochages en mer sont encore fréquents. Depuis plusieurs années, les pays riverains du golfe du Bengale se livrent à une course aux armements, attisée par la lutte d’influence entre l’Inde et la Chine dans la région.
