As far back as 592 BCE, humans have been transporting people and cargo by water. And for centuries, captains have relied on locals familiar with the ports currents and hazards to guide them safely to shore. While pilotage is one of the oldest naval professions, it remains one of the least known. Did you know that ships carry roughly 70% of the world's trade? #shippilots #maritimepilots #ships #houstonshipchannel #porthouston #maritime #sealife #globaleconomy #texastrade #houstonpilots

China’s Future Naval Bases: New Empirical Data Points to Likely Places The Heritage Foundation 16 Aug 2023 Is China building new naval bases? Join us for a conversation on Harboring Global Ambitions: China’s Ports Footprint and Implications for Future Overseas Naval Bases, a recent report on where China is likely to establish its next overseas naval base. Harboring Global Ambitions draws on primary data collection of project-level financial flows dating back to 2000. A comprehensive review of 123 seaport projects totaling $29.9 billion at 78 different ports in 46 countries points to eight potentially viable short-term Chinese naval basing options. This analysis marks an important and unique contribution to better understand China's global port financing portfolio and contend with China’s efforts to rule the seas.

https://lnkd.in/dqRSHQtr Volume 77, Number 1 () Winter 2024 Chasseur American Privateer with British Brig Drake, 1815, a 1960 oil painting by Arthur N. Disney Sr., depicts the U.S. privateer Chasseur in action against a British warship during the War of 1812. Chasseur was built as a merchant vessel and began the War of 1812 as a blockade-runner between Baltimore and the West Indies before its owners concluded privateering would be a more lucrative use of the vessel. It went on to be one of the most successful and profitable privateers of the war before returning to merchant service at the conclusion of the conflict. In “Outsourcing Security at Sea: The Return of Private Maritime- Security Companies and Their Role in Twenty-First-Century Maritime Security,” Pieter W. G. Zhao explores the political and economic factors behind the early emergence of private and mercenary naval forces and behind privateering’s eventual extinction and uses this history to illuminate the return of privatized maritime security to address modern-day piracy in Southeast Asia and off Africa.
