I am saddened to inform colleagues of the passing on 22 August 2023 of former Nautilus Council member James (Jim) Cameron.
Jim was a passionate advocate for Nautilus International amongst all maritime professionals and served his tenure with distinction and dedication, championing in particular the causes of ratings training and representation across the industry.
He will be missed by the Union and the wider maritime community.

Expertise needed for my student cybersecurity survey
I am a first-year cadet, with experience as a rating, who is conducting a survey on the shipside adaptation of cybersecurity practices, and I would be extremely grateful if fellow Nautilus members could complete a short survey for me.
