After having my ENG1 medical restricted due to colour blindness, I thought my career on the water as a Jetboat Master was over. BoatWork helped me find a position that didn’t require a night-watch keeping role, allowing me to stay in the industry I love. Their support has made all the difference

As I neared retirement, BoatWork helped me make the most of my final years on the water as a seasonal commercial RIB master. They placed me in a fantastic role, operating all around the UK, allowing me to keep doing what I love while enjoying the flexibility I need. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to end my career.
