What is a MERCHANT MARINER?

A career as a Merchant Mariner involves working on commercial vessels, such as cargo ships, tankers, or passenger ships. Merchant Mariners are responsible for operating and maintaining the vessel, ensuring safe navigation, and transporting cargo or passengers to their destination.

There are different positions and roles within the Merchant Mariner career. Some of the common positions include:

1. Deck Officer: Deck officers are responsible for navigation, watchkeeping, and deck operations. They oversee cargo loading and unloading, maintain safety equipment, and manage the ship's overall operations.

2. Engineering Officer: Engineering officers are responsible for operating and maintaining the ship's engines and machinery systems. They monitor fuel consumption, carry out repairs, and ensure that the vessel is running efficiently.

3. Able Seaman: Able Seamen are the general, skilled laborers who perform duties such as standing watch, steering the ship, and assisting in deck operations. They also maintain and repair equipment and assist with cargo handling.

4. Steward: Stewards are responsible for managing the ship's catering and accommodations. They oversee the provisioning of food and supplies, prepare and serve meals, and maintain cleanliness in the living areas.

To pursue a career as a Merchant Mariner, you typically need to complete specialized training and obtain the necessary certifications and licenses. This includes completing maritime education programs, such as attending a maritime academy or undergoing training at a maritime training center.

One of the key requirements for a Merchant Mariner career is obtaining the necessary certifications from regulatory bodies such as the United States Coast Guard (USCG) or the International Maritime Organization (IMO). These certifications ensure that individuals have the necessary knowledge and skills to operate safely and effectively on commercial vessels.

Merchant Mariners often work at sea for extended periods, with contracts typically ranging from a few weeks to several months. They may be required to travel to different ports and countries, experiencing a unique and diverse work environment.

Though working as a Merchant Mariner can involve long hours and physical labor, it offers opportunities for career advancement, competitive salaries, and the chance to travel and explore different parts of the world.

CafePress has been around longer than RedBubble and has many more products. However, while they do sell stickers and magnets, they do not have the die-cut stickers and magnets that RedBubble makes. Instead the stickers are shapes such as rectangles and ovals.

Some other unique products that CafePress sells are underwear, ornaments, flasks, shot glasses, jewelery, keychains, pop sockets, golf balls, and more.

About Me/This Site

Hi, My name is Amy. I've been designing images for POD (Print-On-Demand) Sites for 14 years as a "side job". I started with CafePress in 2008, and RedBubble in 2022. I've been trying to bring as much as possible over to RedBubble. Shortly after starting with RedBubble, I discovered they were not allowing my designs/products to be index by Google and other search engines. I decided to create this site to try to get my RedBubble products seen by others. Especially those cute stickers!
