Don't make me send you a letter!!!!!!!

Actually I am celebrating as the above is the sort of drama that gets people raises.

The biggest subsidiary of the parent company is looking at $25,000 in start up costs and $25,000 per ship per year airtime.

If I trump them* and show my way has a $5000 start up and $10,000 per ship per year airtime I'd have saved the owners $35,000 per ship in year one and $15,000 per ship per year on a go forward basis. When you multiply by 40+ ships it gets into savings of millions in a short time.

*the old skool ship managers. When I started as a shore manager I was the youngest in North America. Shore managers are usually retired Captains.
