Welcome to the CavasShips Podcast with Christopher P. Cavas and Chris Servello…a weekly podcast looking at naval and maritime events and issues of the day – in the US, across the seas and around the world. This week…It’s been more than 70 years since the United States dropped from being the world’s largest producer of merchant shipping and the country’s maritime industry fell into a precipitous decline. Today the U.S. owns only about 3 percent of the 55,000 ships in the global commercial fleet, dominated by foreign owned-and-managed companies. China alone produces more than half the commercial ships delivered each year. What should be done about it? What can be done? Veteran maritime industry executive Michael Roberts joins us for a deep dive into some of the issues surrounding this deeply complex issue.
