^ONE CAN A HAVE A WHALE OF A GOOD TIME IN THE GREAT NORTHLAND UNLESS OF COURSE ITS INVOLVING A CRUISE SHIP : https://www.pressherald.com/2016/04/...ale-sculpture/
Quote:
A life-sized whale statue has Juneau in hot water after a cruise ship association alleged it’s a symbol of the Alaskan city’s misuse of millions in fees paid by visitors.
The Cruise Lines International Association and its Alaska affiliate sued the city and the borough of Juneau on Tuesday in federal court in Anchorage. They’re challenging the legality of so-called head tax fees paid by cruise passengers who visit the state’s picturesque capital.
Cruise ships collect the fees and pass them on to the city. Juneau gets a $5 entry fee per cruise ship passenger in addition to a per-passenger port development fee of $3.
The association estimates it has paid Juneau more than $35 million in entry fees in the past four years.
The group represents 12 cruise lines, including Carnival, Holland America??!! and Disney. They contend the city has used portions of those fees on projects that do not directly benefit cruise ship passengers and therefore violate federal restrictions on entry fee taxes.

Having passed his Masters back in November he is about to join his next vessel in Hawaii next Monday (as far as I'm aware) where he will be shadowing the Captain of that ship.

As an added bonus, the Captain is John Scott from Portsmouth and is a very popualar choice for James as he has served under him as his First Officer on numerous cruises in the past.

James is more than welcome. It's always great when good things happen with our members and their families. Further, It's fantastic when people work hard toward their goals and take the initiative to make those goals a reality. It's not easy to do but if it was, everyone would do that.





Again, Congratulations James.
