In this episode, we're talking about carrier trends, market updates on the far east westbound and trans-Pacific trade routes, including recommendations on navigating the current challenges of the crazy climate we’re in. 

I have the privilege to be joined by Lars Jensen founder of SeaIntelligence Consulting.
