As proud supporters of the Chicago Propeller Club we were delighted to be able to attend their Maritime Day luncheon cruise with City Cruises
On what was a terrific day in part organised by Polaris founder and CPC vice chair Ben Pinnington, a very special welcome was given to a Port of Antwerp-Bruges delegation and Wim Dillen who presented a proclamation marking 40 years of trading with Illinois International Port District.
There were also great presentations from Ryan McCoy from Ports of Indiana about exciting containerization expansion plans and from Tricia Reddy Lucas from Armada Risk Partners and our president Chris Carr from Schouest, Bamdas, Soshea, BenMaier & Eastham PLLC.
We also heard important words from Father Mike Enright from Stella Maris Org who spoke about his work supporting seafarers visiting the region.
Details of future events will be posted on the CPC site and also via their LinkedIn page.
