Announcing the winner of our Marine Professionals at Work Photography Competition 2023

Over the course of our Marine Professionals at Work Photography Competition 2023, the Institute received a stunning assortment of entries depicting the working lives of marine professionals. We are pleased to announce the grand winner of the competition is James Jumalon. As a Fitter, James’ photo portrays the challenging task of repairing and constructing resilient container socket shoes.  His entry was accompanied by an inspiring piece of writing, titled Sunrise Sparks which recounts his working day onboard a container ship.
