Your tug experience will be a good shiphandling background. I know Weeks Marine is hiring, Dutra has an older dredge and they are hiring. Great Lakes Dredge and Dock has a large fleet and just built a new dredge. We actually are hiring, but we can’t stack any more people until the new boat comes out. Shoot me a resume, dredgeglennedwards@mansonconstruction.com
I tell everyone to follow up your resume with a call or e-mail every couple of weeks to keep your name top of mind.
Apply to all of the companies, because once you HAVE dredge experience you will find it much easier to move to a “better” company. None of these companies are bad, some just pay better and have nicer equipment. Good luck! and send me a resume
