Which Vessel Will You Work On

A floating hotel: hundreds, sometimes thousands of guests and a large crew serving them. For Turkish seafarers this is the most common way in.

Container, bulk and general cargo vessels. The backbone of world trade; small crews and high responsibility per person.

Vessels carrying crude oil, products and chemicals. Safety procedures are the most strictly applied in the sector, which is why extra certificates and regular drills weigh heavily here.

Vessels carrying wheeled cargo: trucks, cars, trailers. On short routes this is the most common area of domestic seafaring.

Vessels serving offshore oil and gas operations: supply, towing, accommodation and construction support. Work is project-based.

Passenger and cargo vessels operating on Europe's inland waterways. The Rhine, the Danube and their connected canals are the best-known routes.
