Life in Shipping Industry "An Adventure in itself"

They say "Shipping Industry is an adventure and the one working in the industry are daredevils, rebel, or the way Indians like to call it as Khatron ke khiladi". 
who know may be they are true to some extend or may be not. But down here are 10 reasons how I would describe this adventure.


  1. Sleeping is the most important activity in our daily routine, but in shipping industry forget those 8 hours of heavenly feeling for most of the days in a year. Some days in a year  you are able to get those 8 magical hours, if  you are lucky enough.
  2. Since we have enjoyed our life to the fullest in our childhood, school, college,university etc we don't feel like enjoying our life anymore.
  3. life in this industry is full of tension so don't even expect to live carefree.
  4. We want to have disturbed family life.
  5. We strictly follow one line in the Holy Book of Hindus "Geeta" that is KARM KARO PHAL KI KAMNA NA KARO.which simply means work without expecting any fruits of your labor. 
  6. we don't want to spend quality time with our loved ones.
  7. we simply want to take revenge from ourselves.
  8. If you want to breakup with your Girlfriend, friends or willing to get disappear from a period then welcome the the industry ma men...
  9. Social life...!!! what the hell is that...  !!!. Exactly no time to fool around social networking sites.
  10. And last but not the least We love to work on Sundays, weekends and Public Holidays.

Seaworthy Vessel

As per the International Conventions (bunch of rules and regulations) Carrier has certain responsbilities to be fullfilled, which are as followes

2. To properly and carefully load, handel, stow, carry, keep care and discharge the cargo.

3.Too issue Bill of Lading showing marks, numbers. quantity, weight and the order and the condition of the goods as provided by shipper in writing.

SEAWORTHINESS & UNSEAWORTHINESS

A ship is seaworthy if she is fit in design, condition and all the necessary equipments are intact to commence and to encounter the ordinary perials of that particular voyage.

On the other hand a ship is unseaworthy if she has any kind of defects in it like

1. Material of which she is made of & her construction

2.Qualification of master and the crew including officers

3.Weight, Description, stowage of cargo Ballast and Condition of Hull, machinery and equipments
are not fit in every respect for that particular voyage.

For example :
If a ship if fit to carry all kinds of cargo except cargo which have moisture in it, though the ships machinery is capable of handaling other cargo but not cargo which have moisture Hence the ship is unseaworthy for carring that particular cargo ie cargo which has moisture in it.
