Two years after the loss of El Faro, the U.S. Coast Guard's final report on the accident details errors by the captain, violations by operator TOTE Maritime and a lack of crew training that led to the tragedy. In its December/January issue, Professional Mariner examines the findings and new information revealed in the report. In towing, the arrival of Subchapter M made a huge splash last year across the industry. Many questions remain about compliance, however, and a key deadline in 2018 has some inland operators scrambling. We also look at the marine use of methanol, which is gaining traction overseas as a cost-effective, emissions-friendly alternative fuel, and examine the changes the U.S. Navy is making in crew training — and the use of AIS — following the fatal collisions of two destroyers with merchant vessels. Turn to Professional Mariner for these stories and more, including full maritime casualty coverage.
