Jobs on Tugboats
Working and living conditions on tugboats can
be as varied as the boats themselves. A tugboat
company can be mom and pop operation in
Upstate New York…or can be a Fortune 500
company operating large ATB (articulated tug
barge units) on the U.S. Eastern Seaboard.

company can be mom and pop operation in

company operating large ATB (articulated tug
barge units) on the U.S. Eastern Seaboard.
Working and living conditions will reflect the philosophy of the company, budget of
the company, its priorities for safety, career development and quality of life issues.
But this is the case with any industrial company. Working on tugboats and
pushboats is hard work. If you work for a good company, you can earn good
money. The work will involve challenges and adversities the average worker on
shore will not have to deal with. With some of the positions, such as able-bodied
seamen, deckhands and tankermen, the work will be physically demanding.
If you work on a tugboat, pushboat, towboat or other workboat engaged in long
hauls of two weeks or more, you’ll be assigned to a cabin you’ll share with one to
three roommates. Unless you’re the captain (or mate on a large tug) you’re not
going to get a private stateroom. Therefore, working on a tugboat or towboat will
require the ability to work as a team player and deal with adversities unique to the
maritime industry. A roommate may snore…or accidentally turn on a light when
you’re trying to sleep during an off-watch period. Crew members need to be
sensitive to the sleep needs of off-watch shipmates. Stray light and noise in the
passageways can be stressful to someone trying to get five or six hours of sleep to
be rested and alert for an upcoming watch. You’ll be expected to clean the shower
after you use it…or wash your coffee mug when you’re done. Living together at sea
requires a certain level of thoughtfulness among shipmates, both in conduct and
housekeeping habits. Good officers and crews recognize the importance of being
considerate towards their colleagues in the confined setting of a vessel at sea.
Although there are many factors to consider in accepting a job offer such as salary,
quality of workplace, geographically permissible, logistically permissible (as in the
scheduling of work days vs. off days) for family life, another important factor that
shouldn't be overlooked for more junior applicants is the opportunity for training
and advancement. If an employer is large enough to offer accredited training
programs and career paths such as deckhand to mate, QMED to engineer, etc.,
that's worth considering.
