Words of a Seafarer

The Ship’s Log | 18 Nov. 2024

“A good captain must always know one thing: to respect the sea and never defy her.”

These are the words of the gifted captain and poet, Manolis G. Nikolakis from Kasos, writing to us from the open waters near the Azores, amidst the stormy Atlantic. The M/V BUBBA BOOSH, loaded with cement, is bound for Houston, USA.

Captain Manolis, we thank you and wish you and your crew fair seas and all the best!
