Embark on a career where the hum of an engine and the thrill of the open water come together. Dive deep into the world of marine engines and systems, gaining the skills to keep boats running smoothly and safely. It’s not just about fixing engines—it’s about becoming part of the heartbeat of the marine industry.
What I love most about my current job is that I get to be on the water every day and since I am on commission, I can be as busy as I want to be. In Austin the boating industry is huge, and the demand is very high for people like me. This allows me to work as much as I’d like. Seeing different calibers of boats from a 17ft fishing boat to 60 ft yachts to 115 ft houseboats gives me a wide variety of vessels to work on and learn from. This is why I chose this location.
