Radm. James C. Card, the USCG's chief of marine safety, security and environmental pro- tection, has commissioned the task force in re- sponse to four recent passenger vessel mishaps that required the offloading of passengers. Al- though the USCG said there is no indication of a link between the incidents, Radm. Card felt that the occurrence of four mishaps in a span of six weeks necessitated a review. At press time, the task force has begun inspec- tion of about 125 cruise ships currently operating in U.S. waters and embarking from U.S. ports. The task force agenda includes: a review of trends within the cruise ship industry to identify possible causal factors leading to the four inci- dents; identification of possible safety system inconsistencies within the industry and issues of concern to the USCG; making recommendations for improvements as required, and working with industry, through partnering, in implementing adopted recommendations. FastShip Market Demand Confirmed By MIT A Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) study of the potential market for FastShip ser- vice found that demand for the ship would open new markets for products between North America and Europe, with no new competition in sight. "In the areas we investigated, the market for FastShip should be everything its supporters predict," said Robert Simpson, principal inves- tigator for the project and director of MIT's Flight Transportation Laboratory, which pre- pared the analysis. According to the report, FastShip will provide transportation value supe- rior to anything existing or realistically available in the foreseeable future. The report featured three primary findings: there is definitely a market for FastShip service; FastShip will stimulate demand for shipping new commodities across the North Atlantic; and neither air nor ocean service can directly com- pete with FastShip.
