By Peter Pospiech tained air support.

For more than 32 years I have been happily married with my wife Anke, who leads as a deacon the inter- national well-known seamansclub “Duckdalben” in

Hamburg. We are proud parents of two daughters, age 18 and 29. Since May 2018 I work now as managing director of A&R Special Vessels GmbH

What induced you to accept this new position?

Being a passionate graduated engineer for ship op- eration technology, innovative special vessels inspire me. And if one gets such an offer one can’t say ”No.”

I enjoy the maritime industry very much – the experi- ences I gained during seafaring I would like to bear on in new ship projects to deliver ships crews the most suitable vessels for good, safe and effective work on board. In addition to this I would like to forward in- novations which makes the maritime industry safer, more reliable and more environmentally friendly.

Particularly I would like to be part in the develop- ment of innovative and sustainable solutions.

Here, A&R is very active – from the development of new ship types to better production technologies and processes and further on up to new fuels as well as new propulsion systems.
