Titanic Inc writes sea-safety manual
It was revealed at its launch yesterday that Kevin Rudd, CEO of Titanic Inc, is the author of the company’s new Safety Manual for Seafarers.
“It is the most up-to-date and comprehensive manual ever published. It covers all eventualities for coping with maritime perils. This is the beginning of a new era of safety and security at sea. This is a great day for Titanic Inc and for me personally,” said Mr Rudd.
The glittering launch of Safety Manual for Seafarers was held in the swank offices of publisher and tycoon property developer Morrie Schwartz.
Asked if the book had a chapter on icebergs Mr Rudd responded, “Icebergs? What icebergs?”
