Thanks for the reply. I've seen a couple of postings saying "must travel with vessel"; what does this mean?

Re: Engineers for CCG

What rotations do they have? What are the conditions onboard? Do the engineers share cabins?

Thanks.

Re: Taxes

Thanks for the replies. I only have a Canadian passport so can't really go to the UK or anywhere else. I am exploring the non-resident route so if anyone has any experiences to share it would be appreciated. Would someone living abroad need to come back to Canada every two years for a TC medical? Or...

Re: Chief Engineer, Intermediate, BC Ferries, Horseshoe Bay

What's a Chief Engineer Intermediate? Is there another C/E on-board that he/she reports to? Some of these terms are very confusing.

CoC as per STCW 2010 Manila Convention

I got my First Class CoC renewed last year and was issued a CoC as per STCW 1978 "as amended" (a laminated sheet with a stamp/seal); this is even though I completed the MED refreshers and MAFA. Is this CoC as per the STCW 2010 Manila Convention? Transport Canada is not able to give me a sa...

Re: NFLanders only - TC 3rd Class for Offshore

I quite agree with you; its a disgrace that as a Canadian I cannot even apply for jobs on the east coast. Is there anything we can do to change it?
