Guidelines for Shipowners to Avoid Age Discrimination On Board Ships by ICS

It was 2009 alongside the port of Nouakchott. The Chief Officer of the other vessel visited us to ask for medicines. Gangway escorted him to the ship's office. I was wearing a T-Shirt and told him that I am the Chief. He asked again. And, yes, I was the Chief Mate at an early age soon promoted to Master.

ICS publishes Guidelines for Shipowners to Avoid Age Discrimination On Board Ships. A great document!
