The shipowner crewing tankers with 50% women ... and the trailblazing Wista founders

EVER wanted to know what it’s like to operate ships where half the crew are women? Well, this week’s podcast is going to tell you. Lloyd’s List’s principal analyst, Michelle Wiese Bockmann, spoke to Hafnia, the New York and Oslo listed shipowner about a trailblazing initiative that has seen them crew five product tankers with 50% women. But I also want to highlight some of the positive steps being taken to integrate women to a seafaring career and international maritime industry generally. But there’s also an important piece of history to mark. Michelle catches up with the two women who founded the Women’s International Shipping and Trading Association at the very same pub in London where its first meeting was held 50 years ago. It’s important to highlight and recognise the treatment women receive at sea. But it’s also important to highlight some of the positive steps being taken to integrate women to a seafaring career and international maritime industry generally.
