We’re an island nation but how much do we really know about the industry that keeps us connected?

Maritime supports more than half a million jobs across the UK, yet much of what happens at sea and behind the scenes goes unnoticed.

Former senior shipping executive, Alistair Eagles brings industry insight, while journalist Nigel Thompson brings curiosity and storytelling shaped by a lifetime spent close to the coast. 

The result is an entertaining, behind-the-scenes look at a fast-changing sector full of surprising stories, challenges and characters.
