  • Twin propeller propulsion with ride-control systems
What We're Looking For
  • USCG Master's License (100 GRT or greater)
  • Current First Aid / CPR / AED certification
  • Radar Observer (Unlimited) and practical radar experience (preferred)
  • Experience operating or working aboard high-speed vessels (preferred)
  • Mechanical aptitude and ability to assist with vessel maintenance
  • Strong seamanship and situational awareness
  • Positive attitude and strong team mindset
  • Strong communication and leadership potential
Why Join Us
  • Work on modern, high-performance passenger vessels
  • Be part of a tight-knit, motivated crew that values teamwork and professionalism
  • Hands-on role with real responsibility and opportunity to grow
  • Fast-paced, engaging work environment on the water
