When the massive passenger liner, Costa Concordia, ran aground on the island of Giglio off the Italian coast in 2012, Captain Nicholas Sloane took on the challenge of leading a team to parbuckle and refloat her off the rocks before delivering her to the yard in Genoa for scapping. It was the most complex and expensive refloating job ever undertaken.  The successful operation earned him the Cavaliere del Lavoro della Repubblica Italiana, an Italian order of knighthood; and the Deutscher Meerespreis 2015 (German Ocean Award).Having reached the milestone of 60 years old and soon to be President of the International Salvage Union, we speak to Nick about his life in salvage and get his thoughts on the Ever Given grounding in the Suez Canal, the state of the salvage market and his ambition to catch an iceberg!

Plain Talk by Pragmatic Leaders ~ Chapter 3 ~ Nick Sloane

When Nick Sloane got the call to refloat the Costa Concordia in 2012, he was in New Zealand wrapping up another job and dreaming about playing golf back home in South Africa.  When he said "yes" to the job he couldn't know that it would take 30 months, 500 team members, 26 nationalities and 130 divers a day in the water to get the big cruise ship off the ground and towed to Genoa, where she would ultimately be dismantled for scrap. On many salvage jobs, the divers present the biggest challenge, and Nick's story on how he deals with these rock stars of the salvage world is both funny and indicative of real depth in understanding human motivation. If you've ever wondered about building a team, working under stress, or what it takes to want to go out in heavy weather and stormy seas to perform a job not many people can even imagine, let alone do, then you'll really dig listening to this master of creating calm in chaos. Cheers! Nik@PT
