huhu. let me tell u guys a little bit about the place i go. my ship is tanker(oil carrier) we go to US, columbia, mexico, venezuela, taiwan, australia, singapore, cape town. haha. plenty place man.

lyf onboard is gud if u're hardworking and smart. but i'll tell u one thing. before u guys go onboard, try to throw the habit of lying. onboard ship, it is ok if u're stupid. bcause when u work hard, people will teach u lot's of thing. but when u're lazy and always bullshitting, people will continuously f**k(this is normal onboard, so get use to it) u.

The Marine Insurance industry, is mainly made of people from Ex-Seafarers (Master/Chief Engineer), Maritime Lawyers, Adjusters, Paralegals, Past Insurance Background and Naval Architects/Engineers.

Before I explain further, here's a quick info about the industry -

Marine Insurance is pretty similar to your car insurance. There are international regulations for vessels to purchase insurance to cover damages to their hull & machinery and also third party liability (eg collisions with other vessels, collisions with fixed object, oil spill/pollutions).

--------

My day to day job is somewhat similar to the television series CSI but instead of investigating murders,deaths,robbery etc, I would be carrying out investigations on shipping collisions or damage to vessel's hull & machinery, negotiating settlement with third party when collisions occurs etc all on behalf of insurance companies.

So like the very recent case in Australia, where I believe most of you have read in the news, about the vessel SHEN NENG 1 spilling oil into the Great Barrier Reef due to the vessel grounding. My company would be instruct by the Insured's Insurance company, to investigate the circumstances of the incident, organizing salvage companies to control/clean the pollution etc.

As all the above cost of the casualties (from fixing the vessel, cleaning the oil pollution etc) are claimable under the Insurance policy, the Insurance company would then rely on our report to reject or approve the shipowner's claim.

------------

Salary wise, I'm working in a very specialized field where in the world there are not more then 3 - 4 companies doing this. Salary wise its the safe to say its definitely very much above average.

saikomatic, there are quite a number of depths you can work in a Marine Insurance industry. Someone with  seafaring experience would normally work as a marine surveyor. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_surveyor). Surveyors are basically our eyes and ears outside the office. As we don't physically investigate the casualty, we would instruct these surveyors to attend on board the vessel to investigate the casualty etc and based on their report, this will assist us into formulating our assessment on the claim.

Working as claim executive in Marine Insurance does not necessarily requires you to have any seafaring experience (although it certainly helps you to understand and visualise things much better). I have colleagues from legal backgrounds and also previous working experience in a claims department.

If you're in HSE now and you're familiar risk management, there is a possibility of you being a Marine Surveyor.

Do a quick wiki on Marine Insurance, you will note that it mostly revolves around shipping laws/regulations etc. Let me know if you need any further information.
