Hello everyone,
I’m 34 and looking to get a deck cadetship going. I’m currently on a private motor yacht and have been for the last 2 years as a deckhand. I’m getting plenty of sea days, but I’d prefer the cadet route.
Does age hinder me in anyway? I was at school a long time ago and my GCSE’s weren’t great, but I’m full of life experience and have fantastic references from my current Captain and Bosun.
Can anyone recommend certain companies? And will the poor GCSE results hold me/make the cadetship impossible?
Thanks for taking the time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you savvy seafarers!
