support until your first contract

We help you get on crab fishing vessels, fishing boats, processing plants, yachts, and merchant ships through real mentors with experience at sea. You'll receive support, up-to-date job openings, and verified contacts to get you started quickly.

AMORE supports you every step of the way: help with paperwork, guidance on company requirements, and access to an exclusive community with opportunities to join a flight. You get direct access to current job openings and valuable contacts without unnecessary intermediaries. Mentors help you avoid common mistakes and figure out where you should really go to work.
