🚢 By Land and By Sea Podcast – an attorney breaking down the week in supply chain 🎙️ Captain’s Log – “Flags, Fees, and a Maritime Holiday” 🗓️ May 23, 2025Ahoy! This week, we’re covering three stories every maritime professional should know:⚓ Section 301 Tariffs — USTR shifts focus to port equipment with proposed tariffs up to 100% on Chinese-made ship-to-shore cranes, chassis, and cargo handling gear. This signals a strategic pivot in U.S. trade policy.🛳️ FMC Flags of Convenience Investigation — What was once a possible remedy under the chokepoints investigation is now the FMC’s main focus, probing how foreign-flag registries might undermine fair competition and security in U.S. trade lanes.🎉 National Maritime Day — May 22 honors the U.S. Merchant Marine and civilian mariners. This year, the President ordered U.S. government vessels to dress ship in commemoration—a proud salute to the maritime workforce.Ready to break it down?
