About the Speaker
Captain Steve Pelecanos Managing Director, Hermes Maritime Shipping & Logistics

Captain Steve Pelecanos started his sea career in 1970 as a deck cadet with the Blue Star Line of London. He remained at sea for 15 years and after gaining command, joined the Queensland pilot service where he served as a pilot and a Harbor Master in a number of Queensland ports. In 1990 he joined Brisbane Marine Pilots and spent 10 years as Chairman of that company. He also spent 6 years as President of the Australian Marine Pilots Association and 12 years as Vice President of the International Maritime Pilots Association.

Steve holds tertiary qualifications in Nautical Science, Business (Shipping) and Journalism. He is a Director and/or Executive member of a number of maritime organisations, both in this country and overseas.

When Steve retired from piloting, he did what a lot of people do when they retire - he became a consultant! Steve has always been a strong advocate for an Australian coastal shipping industry and has, in recent times, put his money where his mouth is and is in the process of trying to establish a shipping service along the Queensland Coast.

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
