🇨🇦🇺🇸 US approves Canadian-designed icebreaker for Arctic cutters The United States has approved Seaspan’s Multi-Purpose Icebreaker design as the baseline for the US Coast Guard’s new Arctic Security Cutters, the Canadian company said on Jan 7. Under the ICE Pact, two hulls will be built in Finland and up to four in the US, alongside full transfer of design, engineering data, and supply chains. The Polar Class 4 vessels will displace up to 9,000 tonnes, have a 60-day endurance, a range of 12,000 nautical miles, and the capability to break ice up to 1.22 metres thick.

From slicing through towering waves in her prime to being dismantled piece by piece on the Newfoundland coast... The 207-meter MSC Baltic III met her fate after running aground back in February 2025. Today, watching her bow separated from the hull and pulled ashore reminds us of how fast the ocean can reclaim what we build. From majestic container ship to steel recycling yards—such is the relentless rhythm of the sea.

In this video, a vessel passes under a low bridge at high tide—and the windshield wiper becomes the first thing to test the clearance. Air draft isn’t a guess. It’s tide, water level, vessel height, and timing. Before committing to a span, what’s your must-check every single time?

The Royal Navy has successfully completed the first At-Sea Strike Drone launch from a moving ship. It was not launched from an aircraft carrier. It was launched from the experimental ship XV Patrick Blackett while doing trials off the Dorset coast using the Nyan One Way Effector, a low-cost long range strike drone designed by BAE Systems.

Installing a ship propeller involves precision alignment, hydraulic jacks, and expert divers or drydock operations. Each propeller—often weighing several tons—is custom-fitted to the shaft, ensuring optimal thrust and fuel efficiency. A true feat of marine engineering!

We had the opportunity to capture one of the world’s most advanced drill ships, Noble Globetrotter, during her highly specialized transit through the Bosphorus. Built for ultra-deepwater operations, extreme conditions, and accommodating up to 180 crew, she stands as a striking example of offshore engineering at its peak. Our cameras were in position as she made her passage, documenting a rare moment on one of the world’s most challenging waterways. Her agency operations were successfully managed by Transbosphor
