Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe some/most of the Captains on the affected ships are young/newly promoted? If the choice is go with the ship and stay a Captain or stay with OSG and bump back down to C/M, I bet they’ll go (I would).
In fact, if I were a newly promoted CM or a senior CM, I’d be contacting Keystone now to drop my resume for CM/Captain respectively.
From what I’ve heard, it’s not just these 3 ships but the New York and Houston could also be hitting free agency after their one year extensions are up. Gonna be mighty interesting in the next 6-18 months.
