    In de nacht van maandag op dinsdag is Jan de Groot overleden. Hij werd veertig jaar. Sinds november vorig jaar leed hij aan een ernstige ziekte, waarvan geen genezing mogelijk was.
    Op de redactie van de vervoerskrant, waaraan hij sinds januari 1980 zijn krachten wijdde, laat zijn verscheiden een grote leemte achter. Zijn kennis van scheepvaart en aanverwante activiteiten maakte Jan tot een expert, zoals er op dit vakgebied in de Nederlandse journastiek slecht weinig te vinden zijn. Dat dat ook in scheepvaartkringen zo werd ervaren, bleek wel uit de talloze contacten die Jan, ook buiten werktijd, met velen uit die wereld onderhield.
    Jan heeft zijn sporen in de scheepvaartjournalistiek verdiend in een reeks van jaren. Hij kwam 1 oktober 1973 bij het Economisch Dagblad in dienst als scheepvaartredacteur. Al sinds begin 1964 was hij toen journallistiek met de scheepvaart bezig. Tot april 1970 maakte hij namelijk deel uit van de redactie van het Dagblad Scheepvaart en in de periode tot zijn indiensttreding bij Sijthof Pers was hij op freelance basis in zijn specialisme actief.
    Nadat de redactie van het ED verhuisde naar Den Haag bleef Jan in Rotterdam, waar hij ook regelmatig zijn expertise in dienst stelde van het Rotterdams Nieuwsblad, eveneens een uitgave van Sijthoff Pers.
    Op het moment dat Jan deel ging uitmaken van de Vervoerskrant-redactie kon hij zich helemaal op de scheepvaart concentreren, hetgeen hij met toenemend enthousiasme deed. Met name de creatie van het Sea Cargo Magazine, januari vorig jaar, maakte hem bijzonder geestdriftig. Hij zag daarin een mogelijkheid zijn lezers diepgaander te informeren. De door Jan gemaakte Sea Cargo Magazines zijn dan ook voorbeelden van met liefde en kennis gemaakte vakbladen.
  • He is cremated on March 23, 1984 in Hofwijk.
  • A child of Casper de Groot and Jobje Pieternella Hokke
