age

Hong Kong and Singapore Flags have come out at 17 for minimum age...which begs the question.....why bother with International Rules at all?

I actually quite like the idea and thinking behind MLC....

but people join from 16-45 for a cadetship.

Now that MLC is coming they won't be starting at 16 for much longer as quite a number of Flags are saying 18 is the minimum age to work on board!

18-24 seems to be the normal age to join, but people join from 16-45 for a cadetship.

Won't be an issue. Plenty cadets in my intake (including myself) who started about that age.

Evening sailors and sailorettes!
Hope everybodys weekend has kicked off nicely. I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me if my age would work against me with regards to an application? I've just recently turned 22 and I know that with some apprenticeships age can sometimes be a bit of a problem.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
