Item 5.     Other Events
- -------     ------------

            On June 6, 1996, SEACOR Holdings, Inc. ("SEACOR"), provided notice
to First Trust National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee") for the holders
of its 6.00% Convertible Subordinated Notes due July 1, 2003 (the "6% Notes"),
under that certain Indenture dated as of June 15, 1993 (the "Indenture"),
between SEACOR and the Trustee, that SEACOR elected, pursuant to terms of the
Indenture and the 6% Notes, to redeem all outstanding 6% Notes on July 12, 1996
(the "Redemption Date") at a redemption price equal to 104.2% of the principal
amount thereof, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon to (but
not including) the Redemption Date.

            The 6% Notes are convertible into shares of SEACOR's common stock at
a conversion price of $25.625 per share. If the entire $55,250,000 principal
amount outstanding of the 6% Notes were converted, 2,156,076 shares of SEACOR's
common stock would be issued. After taking into account the approximately 1.3
million shares to be issued by SEACOR in connection with its recently reported
acquisition of McCall Enterprises, Inc. and affiliated companies, the converted
shares would represent approximately 18.0% of SEACOR's outstanding common stock.
The closing price of the Company's common stock on June 6, 1996 was $47.75.

            The press release of SEACOR announcing the Redemption, the form of
notice of redemption being sent to the holders of 6% Notes and the Indenture are
set forth as Exhibits hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
