GENERAL OPERATIONS
While this position’s primary responsibility is in vessel operations, the Admiral Jack Summer Deckhand will work as part of the NWM team to ensure smooth operations for the organization as a whole. This could include providing information to visitors to Northwest Maritime and helping out in projects and events that require all-hands-on-deck, to helping tie up a vessel coming into our dock because you happen to be standing there. We all pitch in for the heavy lifting now and then—sometimes this is metaphoric; occasionally we all have to actually help lift something heavy.
