I am helping my friend who got into UAF move up there in this next month and I’m looking for a fishing job (crab fishing preferred, but I’ll take whatever).

Wow what I’ve just read. Inexperienced wanting to commit suicide. Where’s the years of seamanship? The income is high because the stupid die young.
If you work in this area you must know what you are doing. Start on a factory ship first then go for this later.
