re: Tankerman Career Questions

Depends if you want to work for a towing company or as a shore tankerman. With the towing companies, you are going to work either 28/14, 20/10, or 20/20. Pay scale for these will have you starting out very low as a deckhand. You will work your way up to a tankerman trainee and then to tankerman. From there, you will have the potential to move into the wheelhouse. That is when you start making the big bucks.
