Where do I start??
All the classic med ports in the 80’s, (translation-naples) I’ve been to Crete, Egypt, Russia, Croatia, France, Monaco, the UK., Cyprus, DG, Bahrain, UAE
When i was stationed in Guam, i got to hit scenic South Korea, Hong Kong (before the return), Pattaya, Phuket,Subic, plus Truk, Ponape, Saipan
Almost lived in Panama, Colombia, Chile, Brazil (which must NOT be missed), Curacao, Aruba, USVI, BVI, Caymans
Do Mexico and Canada count??
Pehaps we could move this to a new topic?? How about…Best place to visit???
easy career paths? I was told that if you want a safe well paying job, can’t go wrong being a plumber or an elevator mechanic.
Mortician doesn’t hurt much either, boring as hell though (did it for two years).
Work as an deckhand on an larger OSV for five months ($170). Then get your OSV-AB (275+). While working as an AB learn all you can about the oil patch and GOM ports. As soon as you can get your 100ton master, and secure a job on a mini-supply boat with DP ($250-450). In three years time you have yourself a $100,000 job. This is what I did.
