    Long hours, hard work, low pay. That is, until you get the sea time,
    experience and certifications for pumper, captain, etc. Then the pay
    goes up. Here's one site where you can look for positions on
    recreational yachts. http://www.7knots.com/index.html

    If you're interested in commercial, look up your local marine union
    hall, go join the union and they can probably get you a deckhand
    position.

    attached mail follows:


    I would like to ask the list for recommendations and actions in changing my
    career to one involving travel and the sea. At this point I have no notion
    of exactly what I would do, but if it involves travel and the sea I would
    consider myself fortunate. I would appreciate advice from only those with
    professional experience, I can speculate for myself. Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance!

    Craig
