I've only come across this one issue unfortunately.
According to the University of Washington, the publication ran from 1921-1936. So it is a bit perplexing that only 1 issue has been digitized. Maybe just the nature of what it was, an industry specific publication, made it less likely to sit around in a union hall or someone's home so less of them survived?
There are few other publications related to MTU out there.
There is another pamphlet I can't track down that has 'sea' in the title.
As far as secondary literature is concerned there is:
-Marine Transport Workers IU 510 (IWW): Direct Action Unionism from the Summer 1995 issue of Libertarian Labor Review
