Jobs: Maritime Support, OCONUS

Filed under: Jobs,Maritime Security — Tags: , , — Matt @ 12:14 PM

   Wow, talk about cool?  Back to back maritime security work!  I guess you can say that we are definitely starting to see a trend here.  The thing to remember with this stuff, is that as soon as it becomes acceptable practice to have security contractors on boats, then everyone is going to want them.  Simply because no one wants to have the boat that doesn’t have ‘security’.  The pirates will always go after the weakest boat, and doom on you if you don’t have security.

   Probably the next wave we will see, is that as soon as all the boats do get security on them, then you will see more kinetic attacks by the pirates.  They will get desperate, and they will try to take on one of these boats with armed security.  My fears are that the pirates will have weaponry that will outmatch that of a basic security detail on a boat, and overpower the vessel.

    Remember, you need an excellent defensive plan that accounts for all the what-ifs, and you need the right tools for the job in order to defeat the pirate and protect your vessel.  In essence, you need to be a hard target while floating out there on that lonely sea, and you have to plan on no one coming to your rescue in a timely manner.

   Also, I am not the POC or recruiter for this gig.  Follow the directions below, and apply on NEK’s website.  This is a good company folks, and I wish you all the luck if you apply. –Matt
