Immediate openings for engineers on Great Lakes vessels

Additional AMO-contracted vessels have been activated for service on the Great Lakes this season and there is an immediate demand for engineering officers.

Members of American Maritime Officers who typically sail deep sea are encouraged to contact the AMO Great Lakes Dispatching Department if they are interested. AMO deep-sea engineers with unlimited licenses will be eligible for available positions and would primarily be sailing as third assistant engineers.

Engineers will be required to have a current U.S. Coast Guard physical completed on the Merchant Mariner Physical Exam Form (CG-719K), as well as a current drug-free certification, to be eligible to sail on the Great Lakes. Please note: standard physicals administered by Anderson-Kelly will not be accepted.

Interested AMO members should contact Great Lakes Dispatching by phone at (800) 221-9395 or .
