    Glad I went to sea 1957 to 1965, no passports needed for shore, in port up to a week, no containers..yet! THE good old days!

      I have to agree with you. Was a radio officer in the 70s, mainly on general cargo ships, which meant loads of time exploring ashore, sometimes a whole week in B. Aires, Santos, Lagos, Durban...

    Al final, solo se va a necesitar a los ingenieros (para reparar las máquinas). Que los buques se van a conducir ellos solos. :-)

    tax free meaning the company doesn't deduct tax but the employee if a uk resident still has to pay tax on the income..

    Ok White Master Mariner...I can appreciate your attitude, but for me, I am already a mature man who has tried to get on board a ship to sail for several years. But, the closed nature of the business has kept that from happening. In fact, if I have any years left, I would like to spend them at sea. So I am not the typical person you are talking about. So, again, if you have any contacts or information to give...let's hear it.

      Because they get paid a poor wage for time served and more importantly are typically outside the UK for more than half the year.
