Every job is not perfect for everyone. But there are not many industries that has more varied job options than the maritime industry. Likewise, the Maritime Jobs for spring 2023 include everything from fishing guides to tugboat crews. In short, every maritime company is in need of workers. Some of these jobs are day work, while most require that you live aboard. But one of the great things about the live-aboard jobs is that your home does not need to be where you work. You can fly to the job. Work for a few weeks, or months. And then fly home to enjoy a few weeks or months off.
