Welcome Wednesday!

Each week ships enroll in the Amver system. They enroll to help save lives at sea. For many, its a tradition to join the Amver network. Mariners may learn about Amver in a maritime academy, from another crew member, or because someone in the company said the vessel should participate.

Companies also participate because they want to ensure someone will be there to rescue them if the unthinkable happens at sea. They join because it is the "right thing to do". They join because they believe participating in a voluntary search and rescue system demonstrates they are better, safer, more conscientious than a company that won't participate in Amver.

Is there a right reason to join? No. And there isn't a "right" company. Any company can participate. Any flag can participate. The bottom line is nobody cares  about your nationality or political affiliation when the chips are down. As long as you are willing to lend a hand, we want you to assist in saving lives.
