Costa crew honoured for courage
The crew of the Costa Concordia have been awarded the Seafarer Of The Year award at the Lloyds List Global Awards ceremony for “the courage and professionalism” demonstrated when the ship hit rocks and capsized last January.
Thirty-two crew and passengers died in the January 13 wreck off Tuscany, Italy, which has been blamed on the captain for sailing too close to shore in an apparent stunt.
