What are like with boats Ted? Loads of deckhand/engineering jobs out there, ok most you will need your STW95 Survival, First Aid, Fire Fighting etc. If your lucky and get on the right boat the pays excellent 2,500 + for deckhand and 6000+ for engineer Per month or more.
If you don't want to spend on courses get on to Sunsail/Sailing holidays etc. You could easily get a job as engineer on flotilla or shore based in the Med or Carribean. Ok not great as far as traveling goes but its a great life and good way to build sea miles and experience for the bigger boats.
I done a season sailing the Greek Islands and the next year around Turkey about 10 years ago, great fun.
Just an idea.
Cheers Jim
