A personality quiz built for shipping people
What Ship Are You? is a maritime personality quiz created by ZeaClub for people who live and breathe shipping. Answer nine questions about how you think, work, communicate and handle pressure, then discover the vessel personality that best matches you.
It was written with seafarers in mind - deck officers, marine engineers and crew on every trade - and it reads just as well ashore, for shipbrokers, charterers, vessel operators, commercial shipping teams and port and marine professionals. Maritime students and anyone who simply likes ships are welcome on board too.
From tankers to container ships - find your vessel personality
Behind the quiz sits a database of hundreds of vessel and craft personalities. You might come out as a patient crude oil tanker or a quick-turnaround product or chemical tanker, a precise LNG or LPG carrier, a steady bulk carrier, a schedule-driven container ship, or a RoRo vessel or ferry that lives by the ramp and the clock.
Others find themselves offshore - support vessels, tugs that punch far above their size, icebreakers built for the worst of it, research vessels chasing data, superyachts with an eye for detail, or one of the specialist marine craft that quietly make the industry work.
