Did you know? 🤔 Effective from 1st January 2025, all Capesize vessels (nominal deadweight > 120,000) entering Port Hedland must be fitted with at least one Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) rudder camera. Here is a picture of a compliant Capesize departing Newcastle with the bridge monitor. What are your thoughts on using CCTV on the bridge? 📸 Ricky Rouse

AMPI President Josephine Clark, Deputy President Ricky Rouse, Vice President Adam Roberts, Secretary Marvie Rouse BSc and Conference & Marketing Manager Emma Oxenbridge joined local pilot members in Newcastle yesterday for the official opening of the new Svitzer Australia maritime training facility in Newcastle. Svitzer anticipate that the new facility will become the home for maritime training excellence on the East Coast of Australia and will set the foundation for the introduction of the revolutionary new TRAnsverse tug, entering service in Newcastle from 2025. Congratulations to all involved on what was a fantastic opening. AMPI executives enjoyed a tour and were impressed with the simulators and training facilities. 👏

Are you really OK? For those in the maritime industry, mental health can often take a back seat to the demands of the job. Extended periods away from family, the stress of high-stakes responsibilities, and the isolation that comes with life at sea all contribute to increased mental health challenges. That’s why it’s crucial to check in with each other—not just today, but every day. At AMPI, we understand the importance of peer support and mental wellness within our industry. We encourage everyone to ask, listen, and support their colleagues who may be struggling in silence. Whether it’s through a simple conversation or offering a helping hand, your support can make a difference. We’d also like to recognise the ongoing work of The Mission to Seafarers, long-time champions of seafarers' welfare, providing critical support services, resources, and a listening ear to those who need it most. If you have a moment today, consider reaching out to your local Mission to Seafarers to offer some of your time or resources. Let’s keep the conversation going. #RUOK #SeafarersMentalHealth #MissionToSeafarers #MentalWellnessAtSea #PeerSupport
