Liberty got off to a 37-second lead when (the Australian challenger) Australia II jumped the gun and had to recross the starting line. The Australian skipper tried to catch up by sailing way over to the left of the course in the hopes of catching a wind shift. Liberty’s skipper chose to keep to the right- hand side of the course. Summary excerpt taken from Thinking Strategically: The Competitive Edge in Business, Politics, and Everyday Life by Avinash K. Dixit and Barry J. Nalebuff (1991) Australia II’s gamble paid off as the wind shifted 5° in her favor and she won the race by one minute and 47 seconds. She went on to win the next two races and won the cup.

  • The S.S. North Voyageur, Which Made Many Labrador Cruises, Docked at Havre St Pierre
    CHAPTER 6 The s.s. North Voyageur, which made many Labrador cruises, docked at Havre St Pierre LABRADOR CRUISES, TRADE MISSIONS AND THE DEPRESSION Less than a decade after its founding, Clarke now had a fleet of five ships in main line service. The flagship, New Northland, cruised the Gulf of St Lawrence by summer and ran from Miami in the wintertime. The North Voyageur, Gaspesia and North Shore each offered their own distinctive summer cruise programs. And the Bras d'Or Bay Navigation Co's Sable I operated a scheduled passenger and cargo service to and from the North Shore. Meanwhile, the Depression that followed the stock market crash of October 1929 meant that industry in the Gulf of St Lawrence was stagnating. The bottom had already fallen out of the fisheries in 1926, but now business was languishing in general and showing no signs of an early recovery. Harder times were ahead. Changes in the Passenger Department In 1930, Clarke moved its Montreal passenger office from the Drummond Building to the newly opened Dominion Square Building, on the opposite corner of Peel and St Catherine Streets. The building was a $10 million project of Low, Leon & Burns, who owned Carling Breweries, and were also now using the coastal freighter Vedas to bootleg beer and whisky from Montreal to the United States. This ship was the ex-Shearwater that Clarke had once considered for its Gaspé service. That August, the Vedas was arrested by the Customs Preventive Service on Lake Erie with 15,000 cases of beer on board, allegedly bound for Winnipeg.

Menachof University of Plymouth Anthony Damian Norasia Services SA This article chronicles the history of mergers and alliances in the liner shipping industry during the past century before focusing on the latest wave of mergers to hit the industry Each merger wave in the liner shipping industry generally coincided with merger waves from the general industrial world. The incentive for each wave of mergers seemed to be different, with the most recent wave focusing on synergy between the merging companies. The reduction of competing firms through mergers has implications for the shipper and these are also examined.
