About the authorNicco Schaal’s relationship with the sea began far from the sunny decks of cruise ships — at 17 years old, working as a deckhand on North Sea trawlers with NORDSEE.Four grueling 24-day fishing runs off Greenland and Iceland taught him about storms, rolling decks, and the unforgiving rhythm of ocean life — long before he ever stepped on a cruise ship.No luxury cabins, no formal nights — just salt spray, heavy nets, hard work, and the pure, raw force of the sea.That early experience shaped his lifelong fascination with ships and maritime stories. Cruise Ship Trivia reflects that passion: written with authenticity, respect for the ocean, and a sense of wonder for the vessels that most people admire only from the dock.
