Does anyone have any tips or advice for a upcoming marine tech to get into the yachting industry?

Hello,

 

I am Max Helms and I am currently enrolled in in tech school for marine technology and very interested in the yachting industry. I have had training in diesel for Yanmar, Volvo and Cummins. Ive been attending UTI/MMI for one year and will be graduating April 2012. I am also be starting my training for my captains lisence so that I will be able to come on as crew. I am very interested in traveling and being an on board mechanic or on call tech. I am also very driven to be a part of sales or sales rep. If anyone has any kind of information or tips that could help me jump start my career then please respond. Thank for your time and have a good day.

Hi Mr. Helms, I will be at MMI’s “Career Day” on 2/29 in Orlando.  If you are currently attending at the Orlando campus, you're more than welcome to come by the MarineMax trailer and I can give you some tips and info that may be of assistance.  We will be there from 9am - @ 3:30.  We look forward to meeting you, Travis
