Dear readers, we are working on a new and improved version <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Scandinavian<br />
Shipping Gazette. Next year, it will change its name to Shipgaz, get a new layout and<br />
become a magazine published eight times a year. The content will undergo some changes,<br />
we will focus more on subjects <strong>of</strong> interest for seafarers and maritime pr<strong>of</strong>essionals ashore.<br />
At <strong>the</strong> same time, we will launch a new and updated website, www.shipgaz.com, which<br />
will have new functions, new content, improved news coverage and increased interactivity<br />
where you as a reader can make your voice heard in a better way. The first issue will reach<br />
