What is Seamanship? Is it an essential skill or a dying art? | The Nautical Institute

Ships and sailors have changed over the decades and never more so than in recent years as tonnage has grown in size, and technology has become embedded in the control of our ships.
What does this mean for the ancient skill of seamanship?
Is seamanship now a dying art? A skill fondly remembered but of little significance in the workplace of a modern ship?
Or does seamanship continue to underpin true professionalism in the world’s most challenging environment?
The Nautical Institute is a non-governmental organisation (NGO) with consultative status at the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Our aim is to promote professionalism, best practice and safety throughout the maritime industry and to represent the interests of our members.
