Resume
Danish Maritime Officers had in cooperation with the Danish Maritime Authorities planned a workshop on June 13th 2012 prior to the 38th AGA of IFSMA June 14th -15th 2012 in Copenhagen.
The workshop was titled “Lean ship of the future”. With focus on the ever increasing administrative burdens and workload on masters and crew in modern days shipping in order to prepare for and comply with IMO Regulations, Flag and Costal State Regulations, ISPS, Port State Control, Vetting and company safety and quality management systems etc., the aim of the workshop was to identify and discuss the amount of administrative burdens in international shipping:
What is the impact on board the vessels? And what’s to be done?
Is it possible to “lean” things by either reducing or coordinating rules, regulations and procedure issued? Or do things differently/smarter on board the ship?

CAPTAIN WOLF VON PRESSENTIN RE-ELECTED AS CESMA PRESIDENT
During the 17th Annual General Assembly in Rostock, Germany, on 11th May, Captain Wolf von Pressentin was re-elected CESMA President for another term of three years. Due to statutory stipulations and personal reasons, this period will be his last. Captain Von Pressentin was elected unanimously by those Council Members present at the 17th CESMA Councilmeeting at the historical site of the Hausbaumhaus in Rostock, seat of the Rostock Shipmasters Association VKS, a member of the national
German Shipmasters’ Association (VDKS) with its base in Hamburg. Important during the Council meeting, of which the presence is restricted to Council members only, was the decision for CESMA to look for (associated) membership of shipmasters’ associations which exists in other European nations outside the European Union under the condition that these nations belong to the geographical territory of Europe. In this CESMA follows the example of other similar European associations such as EMPA (European Maritime Pilot’s Association) and EMHC (European Harbourmasters’ Committee). Experience from these organisations learn that membership of non-EU European associations offer very interesting and productive co-operation adding experience and knowledge to European shipmasters in general. It must be stressed that eventual new membership from shipmasters’ associations from non-EU countries is limited to associate membership which follows the principles of the Statutes of CESMA.

RESOLUTIONS FROM THE CESMA GENERAL ASSEMBLY ON
12 MAY 2012 AT TECHNOLOGY CENTRE, ROSTOCK GERMANY
Resolution nr. 1: Criminalisation of seafarers.
The 17th Annual General Assembly in Rostock, Germany, again noted that the problem of criminalisation of seafarers and of shipmasters in particular, continues to be a matter of great concern. Motives are not only environmental offences but, among others, also the finding of drugs on board. Recent cases have again shown that co-operation between all parties concerned is the best solution to tackle the problem of criminalisation. CESMA urgently requests shipowners or operators to always provide legal protection to masters, serving on their ships, in case of an incident as a consequence of which they are detained by local authorities, until a verdict has been pronounced. Moreover masters are advised to take a risk insurance into consideration.

Italian CESMA Member Association, Collegio Nazionale Capitani, expresses its deepest condolences to the people who lost their lives as a consequence of the accident with the Costa Concordia. They feel very close to the families of passengers and crew and share their sorrow. Too much has been said in these dark days in the history of the Italian Merchant Marine. About the causes of the accident which lead to the capsizing and part sinking of one of the most modern cruise ships and to the loss of life or missing of over 30 people, we trustfully will wait for the official investigation and the final inquiries before drawing a conclusion. This sad page in the glorious book of our Merchant Marine, that anyhow does not threaten our believe in safety at sea, can not be prejudical and is not able to throw mud on a category of professional seafarers who continue to work at sea, day by day taking care of people and goods all over the oceans of the world.
