Comment on How do I become a sea boat worker

Shit, just go fishing. I knew multiple young guys who simply went to Alaska and asked around. You’re going to be the greenhorn but if you want to work yourself to death it’s a good path.

This is the way to do it.
I used to live in Alaska and I became friends with a few people from Seward. It is very much a thing for people, even those with zero experience, to simply go there and get jobs on fishing boats. Or processing fish or working at a tourist resort but mostly on boats. And of course that's mostly jobs for men because you need some physical fitness and strength. It might be a little harder if you're pushing forty, but I'm not sure.
There are tons of people who go up and work their asses off all summer fishing in Alaska and then don't work for the rest of the year, then do it again the next year.
