Nautical science is essential for maritime safety and it is important for me personally, in a view of my present professional position, to support all the measures and activities that may increase the safety of seafarers and all shipping on the world’s oceans.

As I am responsible for maritime affairs in Poland, the question of maritime safety is among the issues especially close to my heart, the more so that I am not only an Undersecretary of State but also a seafarer.

The Maritime Administration in Poland is deeply involved in the process of improving safety conditions at sea. This process is carried out at three levels.

On the national, nonconventional, level the Administration is working continuously towards improving the safety of fishing boats, domestic passenger ships and pleasure craft. This is being done with due attention to the needs and safety of those who work hard or enjoy spending their leisure time at sea.

On the European level, we are fully involved in executing robust European maritime safety legal provisions, and we follow closely the development of new European maritime safety law, being deeply engaged in the process of its implementation.

On the global level, we fully participate in all IMO meetings, being engaged in its Committees and Subcommittees, and we contribute to many initiatives dedicated to maritime safety. We also support the initiatives of our colleagues from fellow Member States.

I believe that this Conference will help in further developing new maritime safety initiatives.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I wish you much fruitful discussion and many new bright ideas, which will help to improve the level of safety and save more lives and vessels at sea.

Thank You very much for your attention.

Capt. Anna Wypych-Namiotko Undersecretary of State in the Ministry of Transport, Building and Maritime Economy, Poland

Effective Navigation - The Challenge and the Roadmap Ladies and Gentlemen,

It’s an honour to join you all at this very important event. I thank the organizers for asking me to share my thoughts with this august gathering.

My congratulations to the TransNav team on it’s 10th anniversary. The Maritime world has started to look to this annual event as an important date its calendar. The scope of this conference is as wide as it is magnificent. It’s everything a navigator would wish to learn from. However, I do hope that with the passion and engrossing technical detail that these papers promise, we will also take care not to lose sight of the noble objective that we are all gathered here for. That is to enhance safe navigation and efficient sea-transport. The debates and discussions over the next three days can therefore be seen as a means to meeting this simple objective.

As my team and I travel around the world to represent the Nautical Institute’s views, we are greeted with a great deal of interest and high regard. This is because the Institute is possibly the most respected independent, international body for and of nautical professionals. The rich sea-going experience and expertise of our members is deemed very valuable. We are collectively humbled that the world wishes to listen to us.

There are only a few good professional men and women who know their way around oceans and boats. It is no exaggeration that just over a million seafarers keep the 6 billion people of the world warm and free from hunger. They do so at considerable personal risk as they sail across increasingly turbulent oceans to call on increasingly hostile ports. These are the people on whom the world depends for their food, shelter, energy and their very survival. Any maritime discussion around the world is ultimately all about bringing home those goods and people safely and efficiently. And doing this in a consistent and sustainable manner year after year. As a tribute to the indomitable spirit of the seafarer, I would be very grateful if the papers and outcomes of this Conference can be made available to our Institute members electronically.

What the world demands of maritime transport is simple. - 100% safe and reliabile sea-transport with the least possible consumption of the planet’s resources. To the skeptics even within shipping industry, this may look like an impossible and unrealistic challenge, given the size and diversity of the maritime transport sector. Let me put you at ease and place this challenge in perspective. Shipping service is already at around 99.96% reliability level in terms of goods and people safely delivered. For a trillion dollar industry, high value, high profile navigational incident claims account for half a billion USD each year. I have taken care not to say “only” half a billion dollars since it is my fond wish that the deliberations and ideas that will follow at TransNav will eventually lead to the reduction of such losses.

Sea-transport boasts of the least greenhouse gas emission per ton-mile of cargo hauled compared with any other mode of transport, rail, road or heaven help us, air. Shipping can only benchmark against itself as far as energy efficiency is concerned and work to improving on it.

What we are faced with is what I call the last mile syndrome. As the saying goes about Perfection, achieving the last 1% consumes 99% of our intellectual energy. I believe that is what Conferences like this are all about – covering the most arduous last lap of this race to be the most socially responsible sector of the global economy. Interestingly, we are talking about a sector that is indispensable to global economy.

With the world focused on environmental sustainability, ship operations, ship design and ship recycling industry will increasingly revolve around the imperatives of energy efficiency.

As economies battles ever so intensely for resources on dry ground, resources from the sea and beneath the waves will continue to draw humanity increasingly offshore. This presents both an opportunity and a challenge for the shipping community to ensure that we exploit the resources of the sea safely and responsibly. It might interest you to know that the Nautical Institute is developing a guidance document for Marine Spatial Planning.

Moving closer to the soul of the TransNav theme, most of you would be aware that the Nautical Institute continues to actively contribute to the development of IMO’s e-Navigation strategy from its infancy till date. The Norwegian flag is leading and collating the inputs of the correspondence group prior submitting the implementation plan to successive Nav sub-committees. The current focus of the Institute is to ensure verifiable reliability and resilience of critical navigational systems. I’d like to eventually see these features extend to the ship’s propulsion and steering system as well. We are also very keen to ensure an ergonomic, human centered design of the bridge layout that supports decision-making, eliminate low priority distractions and positively engage the navigator.

Within this framework, standardized display of MSI, software integrity and a robust means of alerting the watch-keeper of insidious error chains are high on our priority list. The seamless and automated integration of ship and shore users of MSI is expected to create an additional layer of safety and efficiency of ship operations.

With all the buzz that goes into position, heading, timing and collision avoidance systems, there is always a danger of somewhat neglecting the closest hazard, namely the shallow seabed beneath the keel of the ship. It will be interesting to see if an elegant technology solution will emerge at this forum.

Finally, if we are to meaningfully exploit the value of the technology that we intend to apply to the navigation of sea-going craft, we all need to reflect on the profile of the next generation of navigators and how we will educate, train and prepare them for a navigational matrix significantly different from those worked by his predecessors.

It is very exciting to see all these elements covered in minute technical detail at TransNav. I hope to leave enriched after the interactions with such a galaxy of experts and specialists.

Thank you

Capt. Sivaraman Krishnamurthi, President of the Nautical Institute

Message from the Rector of Gdynia Maritime University

Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen,

I have a great pleasure and honour to welcome Distinguished Guests and all Conference Participants at Gdynia Maritime University. This year event, organized jointly by Faculty of Navigation from our University and the Nautical Institute under the title 10th International Conference on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation, have gathered leading researchers from all over the world, active in the field of the Conference. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all participants for their support, contributions and for coming to Gdynia.

It is not by chance, that our University is hosting this Conference as well as was hosting all 9 of its previous editions. Safety of sea transportation and marine navigation are among our internationally recognized research specializations and both constitute the main focus in education of future navigation officers, studying at our University.

Program of this Conference offers a variety of excellent contributions. Their topics have been evolving and growing during last 20 years since the first TransNav Symposium was held. Under the heading of the main conference topics there are now listed more than 120 specific thematic areas. Their range goes from Nautical Science and Marine Navigation to Maritime Economics and from Safety and Security of Maritime Shipping to Coastal Zone Management and Offshore Energy, Gas and Oil, to name just a few examples.

I hope that this jubilee meeting will be fruitful in terms of both, gaining new knowledge and, what is equally important, extending and tightening the contacts within maritime research community.

I wish the participants and organizers of the Conference intellectual satisfaction, new contacts, and beneficial exchange of ideas. I wish you also a nice and pleasant stay in Gdynia. Last but not least I would like to congratulate Faculty of Navigation for a successful transition from a local-scale symposium into one of the most important scientific events involving the world-wide community working on safety of shipping and related areas.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Let me declare that the 10th International Conference TransNav 2013 on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation is now open.

Prof. Dr. Piotr Jędrzejowicz Rector of Gdynia Maritime University

Gdynia (Kashubian: Gdiniô, German: Gdingen; 1939-1945 Gotenhafen) is a city in the Pomeranian Voivodeship of Poland and an important seaport of Gdańsk Bay on the south coast of the Baltic Sea. Located in Kashubia in Eastern Pomerania, Gdynia is part of a conurbation with the spa town of Sopot, the city of Gdańsk and suburban communities, which together form a metropolitan area called the Tricity (Trójmiasto), with a population of over a million people. Gdynia is a relatively modern city. Its architecture includes the 13th century St. Michael the Archangel's Church in Oksywie, the oldest building in Gdynia, and the 17th century neo-Gothic manor house located on Folwarczna Street in Orłowo. The city also holds many examples of early 20th century architecture, especially monumentalism and early functionalism, and modernism. A good example of modernism is PLO (Polish Ocean Lines) building situated at 10 Lutego Street. The surrounding hills and the coastline attract many nature lovers. A leisure pier and a cliff-like coastline in Kępa Redłowska, as well as the surrounding Reservation Park, are also popular locations. In the harbour, there are two anchored museum ships, the ORP Blyskawica destroyer and the Dar Pomorza Tall ship frigate. A 1.5 kilometre long promenade leads from the marina in the city centre, to the beach in Redłowo. Most of Gdynia can be seen from Kamienna Góra (54 metres above sea level). The decision to build a major seaport at the Gdynia village was made by the Polish government in 1920. Construction of Gdynia seaport was started in 1921. Till the end of 1930 docks, piers, breakwaters and many auxiliary and industrial installations were constructed or started. In 1938 Gdynia was the largest and most modern seaport on the Baltic Sea, as well as the tenth biggest in Europe. The city was constructed later than the seaport. In 1925 a special committee was inaugurated to build the city; city expansion plans were designed and city rights were granted in 1926. The city started to grow significantly after 1928. Gdynia today is poised at an interesting stage in its development, riding on the crest of Poland's economic reforms. With a population of over 250,000 and one of the most buoyant economies in the whole of Poland, Gdynia is certainly going places, and it can no longer be dismissed as the grey counterpart of neighbouring Gdansk and Sopot. Certainly, it has none of the flamboyant sweep of its neighbours. Gdynia has plenty of tricks up its sleeve. And belying its reputation as a business hub, Gdynia is certainly no pauper when it comes to cultural attractions. The city can boast one of the country's top film festivals (often dubbed the 'Polish Cannes'). Located a 3-minute walk of the beach in Gdynia the Hotel Orbis Gdynia is situated in a quiet area, just 200 metres from the central Kościuszki Square, 300 metres from the Batory shopping centre, and 800 metres from The Faculty of Navigation, Gdynia Maritime University. The hotel restaurant, Pod Dębem, serves international dishes and local specialities in a bright dining hall. The same awaits us in the Banquet Room.

Sopot (Kashubian: Sopòt; German: Zoppot) is a seaside town in Eastern Pomerania on the southern coast of the Baltic Sea in northern Poland, with a population of approximately 40,000. It lies between the larger cities of Gdańsk (Danzig) (to the south-east) and Gdynia (to the north), the three towns together making up the metropolitan agglomeration called Trójmiasto (Tri-City).

Sopot is a major health-spa and tourist resort destination. It has the longest wooden pier in Europe (Molo), at 515.5 metres, stretching out into the Bay of Gdańsk. The city is also famous for its Sopot International Song Festival, the largest such event in Europe after the Eurovision Song Contest. Among its other attractions is a fountain of bromide spring water, known as the "inhalation mushroom".

The Sopot Pier (Molo w Sopocie) built as a pleasure pier and as a mooring point for cruise boats, first opened in 1827. It stretches into the sea from the middle of Sopot beach which is a popular venue for recreation and health walks (the concentration of iodine at the tip of the pier is twice as high as on land) or public entertainment events, and it also serves as a mooring point for cruise boats and water taxis. It is also an excellent point for observing the World Sailing Championship, the Baltic Windsurfing Cup and the Sopot Triathlon taking place on the bay. Sopot pier consists of 2 parts: the famous wooden walking jetty and the Spa Square on land, where concerts and festivities are organised.

Warm, friendly faces and cool Baltic Sea breezes will greet you at the Sheraton Sopot Hotel, Conference Center & Spa. Sheraton Sopot is located next to the beach of the Baltic Sea and just beside famous wooden pier Molo.

Wave Restaurant - marine style hotel restaurant, offering international and Polish cuisine. All of dishes are prepared with unseen passion and involvement of the chefs. Open kitchen lets the guests watch them working whereas the intimacy of Wine Cube allows meetings in calm atmosphere. Wave is an ideal place to meet with family or friends.

0830 - 1800 Technical and Sightseeing Tour by bus to Gdańsk and Kashubian Switzerland 0830 - 0900 Departure by coach from hotels 1000 - 1100 Guided tour to Oliwa Cathedral - The Post-Cistercian Complex Oliwa Cathedral (including

organ concert) 1100 - 1200 Guided walk through the Old Town in Gdańsk (Golden Gate, Dluga Street, Długi Targ, Green

Gate, quayside) The thousand-year-old Gdańsk is considered to be the most monument-packed city of "Baltic

Europe". Gdańsk is a Hanseatic (a town belonging to the Hanseatic League - a medieval league of towns in Northern Germany and adjacent countries for the promotion and protection of commerce). Most of the monuments in Gdańsk are located near the heart of its Old Town District, around Długa Street, streets parallel to it, and the quayside (Długie Pobrzeże). The best place to start our trip would be the Upland Gate (Brama Wyżynna) and the King's Road stretching beyond it. Having crossed The Upland Gate, we will find the Torture Chamber (Katownia), which is planned to house a museum of amber soon. Next in line is the Golden Gate (Złota Brama) and, next to it, The Court of the Society of St. George (Dwór Bractwa Świętego Jerzego). Długa Street is the main track of the town, where you'll be enchanted by the beautiful renovated XVI - XVII century houses, one of them being Uphagen's House (Dom Uphagena) - which houses the Museum of the History of Gdańsk. All these magnificent buildings are overshadowed by the beautiful and monumental Main Town Hall (Ratusz Głównego Miasta). Walk inside, and you are in for a treat - the splendid interior was renovated not so long ago. Nearby, on the Market Square (Długi Targ) you'll find the symbol of Gdańsk - Neptune fountain. Behind it is the beautiful Court of Artus (Dwór Artusa) and the New House of the Court with The Lady from the Window and the amazing Golden House (Złota Kamieniczka). Tip: There is a place on the Market Square from which you can see three Neptune statues - try to find it! If you would like to feel like you are here now - take a look at the Panoramic View Długi Targ. At the end of Długi Targ, you'll find the Green Gate (Zielona Brama), with the picturesque quayside (Długie Pobrzeże) stretching beyond it and Granary Island (Wyspa Spichrzów - unfortunately still in ruins) opposite the quayside. The Central Maritime Museum (Centralne Muzeum Morskie) is located on the quay with Ołowianka island facing it (during summertime the Baltic Philharmonic gives concerts there).

Kashubian strawberries The first Polish fruit to enjoy protection under European Union law is the Kashubian

strawberry (truskawka kaszubska in Polish, kaszebskô malena in Kashubian). Its name was registered in November 2009 as a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) in the EU.

The Kashubian strawberry comes in different shapes: round-conical or round-kidney shaped. Its longitudinal cross section is heart-shaped, when cut across it is round. The early-harvest fruit is large or medium-sized. The skin color is dark red, consistent across the whole surface, slightly glossy, and the flesh is bright red when cut. The fruit is firm, slightly hard but also juicy. It is covered in a silky, very thin skin on which pips are visible. Kashubian strawberries are sweet and aromatic. Because of the conditions in which they ripen, Kashubian strawberries stand out from varieties grown in other regions due to their higher sugar content. This is the result of the special microclimate of the Kashubian Lake District, and particularly the daily temperature fluctuations - cool nights and scorching days.
