Captain's Dilemma - Paper Cargoes
The carriage of paper rolls at sea requires careful consideration to prevent cargo damage and ensure vessel stability. Paper rolls are highly sensitive to moisture, physical damage, and shifting during transit. Putting to sea in heavy weather can bring about hidden problems with such sensitive cargoes.
As he goes about his pilot duties Barry is lucky enough o be able to discuss the challenges of the carriage of various cargoes with the masters of the vessels that he pilots. One such discussion had prompted this incredibly interesting podcast.
Barry discusses the challenges of carrying paper, the masters decision to delay sailing due to the weather and other hazards that may exist in the carriage of drawing paper rolls.
