Well as of last paycheck Harvey gave $50 a day across the board to their supply boat officers, and a big F YOU to their tug crews. Gotta love it ---

There may be a point when it is enough. Regardless, it is long overdue. I remember a time when the rig hands would come down to offload and brag about raises and bonuses. Whether you are on a tug, osv, crewboat, or drillship. The office folks would not have a job to complain about if we were not here running the boats. I say keep giving raises, and keep begging for people. You certainly will not get the courtesy of a 2 week notice when they cut your pay, layoff or furlough or whatever they want to call it. ---

[QUOTE=ForkandBlade;86301]What are they paying C/E’s on OSV’s?[/QUOTE] My AB talked to an engineer that was making crew change on one of the Beemar boats and said they were making $850, so with this bump puts them at $900. Of course this is all 2nd hand word of mouth. ---

Actually, you are a 100 bucks to generous. Beemar masters/CE’s took a cut in they buy out. ---

[QUOTE=anchorman;86399]The reason I left the boats…[/QUOTE] Thats less than what you can get as a SrDPO for spot work for CMAR. No wonder all you OSV guys want to go drilling. ---

You could have sold out to a drilling contractor and doubled it again. ---

[QUOTE=Capt. Lee;86480]You could have sold out to a drilling contractor and doubled it again.[/QUOTE] But he wouldn’t be a real captain cause drilling captains don’t know how to handle a boat. [Next page](https://forum.gcaptain.com/t/harvey-gulf-gives-latest-raise/8761.md?page=2)
