Re: Work
My name is Daniela I have passed my captain (six pack )test in April and Have received my TWIC card. I am a team player and want to be a part of a crew. I have great references. Im new to being on a crew and easy to train. (have no bad habits) I've been boating on and off most of my life on the Hudson River. Within the last 5 season I have been sailing on the Long Island sound and the River. I just need a chance.

Your welcome...Guam should be a local call from stateside ,just dial 1 area code and exchange...have not googled it myself ,maybe it goes to PI,if that is so call guam dept.of labor..I would not go thru any company in PI as the dept of labor in Guam is the US dept of labor and they can provide protection if all doesnt go well with the company...good luck...DVC
