My Summer on Tugs

This summer I was out working on tugs in New York Harbor, including up the East River and Hudson River. Sea Wolf Marine is the name of the tug boat company I worked with, I have been working for this company all summer for 3 years to get me seatime. Seatime is how many hours I have spent aboard the tug; I currently have around 275 hours. I'm building up sea time and credentials so I can be eligible to be Coast Guard approved in the future. This was a great summer because I spent about 4 weeks on the boat non-stop working on the tugs and it was a great time. This summer I'm joining the Union to get more experience and I will be able to get new connections  that will help me in my future.
