This is the best summary I could come up with:
Every year, in the waters off the California coast, hundreds of tankers, car carriers and container vessels from dozens of shipping companies take part in an unusual race.
About 90 percent of all consumer goods are shipped by sea, and the volume of maritime cargo has exploded in recent years, causing vessels to increase in size and numbers.
As part of an effort to protect the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale, there are speed limits along the East Coast, and in recent years NOAA has hit violators with stiff fines.
“We prefer more recognition, and I think people like the ceremonies,” said Jack Duesler, West Coast regional operations manager for NYK Line, a major shipping company based in Japan.
Last season, 13 of the 33 participating shipping companies won Sapphire prizes, among them Yang Ming Marine Transport Corporation, based in Taiwan.
This spring, it unveiled a real-time tool showing which shipping companies operating in North American waters are abiding by speed limits.
