About ship knowledge

1. The shipowner owns the ship, and he is the owner of the ship.

Second, the owner may not know how to operate the ship, but he may have built it just because he has money to burn. In this case, a shipping company helps the shipowner manage the ship. Of course, it is also possible that the shipowner himself knows how to operate the ship, so he set up a shipping company, and then the shipowner and the shipping company merged into one.

Third, the captain is just an employee, of course, the head of the employee.

Four, the captain is generally employed by the shipping company. Of course, it is normal for shipping companies and shipowners to be equal.

5. When supplies are needed, general supplies such as meals can be directly decided by the captain. After all, the ship is outside, and the company's order can be ignored (the key is that the company may not know the details). But some bulk materials, such as refueling, are generally directly decided by the shipping company.

Note: This does not take into account the chartering situation, nor does it take into account the direct chartering situation of large cargo owners.
