This includes painting, cleaning floors, carpentry,  varnishing, securing ship at dock, and anything else that is needed.<\/p>\n<p>Engineers  are in the Engine Department and it is their job to make sure the engines are  working efficiently &#8211; and just about any other machinery or mechanical systems  on the ship. They also work on the power generation systems, the heating and  cooling systems, refrigeration systems, electrical systems, elevators, and  more. Besides this, they may also help with meal preparation.<\/p>\n<p>Deckhand positions  are often entry level with few requirements, but special talents, such as  carpentry, may be required &#8211; depending on the expertise needed. Engineers,  however, need to have a qualifying education and experience. Assistant  Engineers are an entry-level position.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"block upgrade-block accent-2\">\r\n\r\nTo view the rest of this page, you will need to be a Premium Member.You are visiting the Members Section as a <em>Free BASIC Member<\/em>.
