    .. completed my cadetship in the original college, the "Crawford", in 1973! Am looking at retirement now, but was just monitoring where the new place stood. If you need any advice, give me a shout. Are you heading deckside or engineering?

    Take it one step at a time, get a degree, and while doing so, keep your wits about you. Look also beyond the horizon.

    Mods- apologies for digging up old threads - this is a specialised course so there is only a few threads here when people go searching for info so I want to point them in a helpful direction.

    Folks, for anyne looking for information on life at sea a Maritime forum has been set up recently. Some of the people posting there are actively working at sea.

    Its new so it will take a while but there will be info posted about ships & living ob board
