His career began in the early 80s at the National River Academy in Arkansas, landed a job on deck with Dravo Mechling in the northeast, followed his parents to Mobile, AL, found himself working for Compass Marine, and has been working in the Gulf ever since. A few changes over the years landed him at Ingram where we first met.

Between the Levees - S2:E114 | David Shirah Jr. | Ship Pilot
play

02/17/24 • 102 min

Captain David Shirah Jr., a NOBRA Ship Pilot whose family has been working on the water for centuries, followed his father into the towboat and barge world after a short stint in college. He's followed a fair amount of career opportunities over the years, but it all started in Cairo, IL with ACBL. David landed in the Pilots Association in the mid-90s and never looked back. He discusses a rich family history rooted in the American maritime world, the trials and tribulations of boat life in the early 80s and 90s as he cut his teeth in the industry on vessels his father was running for ACBL, his transition into the Pilots Association, and some lesser known details of that side of our industry.
