Captains Briefing & Reception St. Maarten January 2009
The annual Captains Briefing & Reception, held in St. Maarten in January, gathered nearly 100 industry captains (who were berthed there) to discuss such issues as visas & immigration, foreign-flagged vessel entry into U.S. waters, doing business with U.S. refit yards and piracy.
A delegation of over 20 member companies traveled for a mini-trade show and two days of networking with the
attending senior officers and the many vessels in port.
