His intention was to “speak out, loud and bold … for the shipowner, as an advocate, not a judge”.[3] In the first issue he wrote: "There is so little Fairplay in the world. If our own efforts succeed, we shall have taken the first steps towards promoting the habit of calling things by their right name and looking at them through uncoloured spectacles."[2] The enterprise was successful and could soon increase size and revenue. In 1912, the publisher's son Gordon Hope Robinson took over and Fairplay stayed a family business until 1973.[3] Data managementThe company began publishing directories in the 1960s and data management became a sector of growing importance, resulting in the 1964 cooperation with International Shipping Information Services, which became FIRS, Fairplay International Research and Statistics.[3] In 1973, the Fairplay company was taken over by the Financial Times group, before a management buy-out in 1979, one of the first in the UK, transferred ownership to Prime Publications.[2] Prime improved the data management sector by storing information in databases and started to sell directories on CD-Rom in the 1990s.[3] Internet ageFairplay was the first maritime publication to start an internet and email daily news service, in 1996. Its data management activities led to a joint venture with Lloyd's Register in 2001, known as Lloyd's Register–Fairplay Ltd (LRFairplay). This new enterprise was then the sole provider of IMO numbers. The next years saw several acquisitions of other companies and in 2004, a partnership with HITT NV of the Netherlands, which created AISLive, a broadcast system for tracking vessel movements. Fairplay was acquired by IHS in 2008, including 50% of LRFairplay, and the corporation also bought Lloyd's Register's 50% share of that maritime data business in 2009.[3] PresentIn 2011, the Fairplay publication company was renamed IHS Fairplay.[3] It produces the weekly magazine in print, a digital edition, a daily email newsletter, and the monthly magazine Solutions.[1] Additionally, Fairplay's website provides up-to-date news and information for registered users (“up to five free articles every thirty days“) and subscribers.[4] The organisation is based in Coulsdon, UK, has offices in America, Singapore, Sweden and a network of correspondents worldwide. In September 2018 it was announced that Fairplay would cease publication by the end of 2018, with the last issue due to print the first week of December.[5][6] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://shop.janes.com/About-Us/ |title=About Us About Fairplay |publisher=Janes.com |accessdate=19 August 2018}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite book |last1=Hogben |first1=Rick |title=A Sharp Lookout |date=1983 |publisher=Fairplay Publications Ltd |location=London |isbn=0905045483 |pages=165, 174 }} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite web |url=https://fairplay.ihs.com/history-fairplay |last1=Miller |first1=Greg |title=History of Fairplay |publisher=Fairplay.IHS.com |accessdate=17 August 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=https://fairplay.ihs.com |title=Fairplay |accessdate=17 August 2018}} 5. ^{{cite news |last1=Chambers |first1=Sam |title=Maritime media stalwart Fairplay bows out at 135/ |url=https://splash247.com/maritime-media-stalwart-fairplay-bows-out-at-135/ |accessdate=27 September 2018 |work=Splash247 |publisher=Asia Shipping Media |date=27 September 2018}} 6. ^{{cite news |title=Fairplay to cease publication |url=https://fairplay.ihs.com/commerce/article/4306901/fairplay-to-cease-publication |accessdate=29 September 2018 |work=Fairplay |publisher=IHS Fairplay |date=27 September 2018}} External links{{Portal|Nautical}}
