Tonight I had the pleasure of talking to members of the World Ship Society, Port of New York Branch. The World Ship Society is an organization for people that enjoy anything to do with shipping. The Port of New York Branch focuses primarily on passenger and cruise ships. They were a great group and had excellent questions. One of the most useful features of the Port of New York Branch's website is the directory of passenger ship arrival and departures.
The members of the Port of New York branch welcomed the Oceanic back to New York Harbor last week and toured it as well.
I enjoyed sharing the Amver story with them and hearing their stories. My sincere thanks for allowing me to address your group.
