Working in inland navigation
Working in inland navigation offers not only opportunities but also opportunities. For anyone who wants to be free, adventurous and close to nature, work in inland waterways. You live and work on the water. It is one of the few professions where the view changes every second and for which you are paid to sail to other countries.
When you work ininland waterways you have to deal with ships of all shapes and sizes that can come anywhere in Europe to load or unload the cargo on time in the (international sea) ports. There are several ships you can work on. For example, you can visit a container ship, a ship with dry cargo, a tanker or a passenger ship.

Working on a ship
A service booklet
A service booklet is a registered document for crew members of a professional sailing barge. Outside the skipper, each member of the crew of a Dutch barge must be in possession of a registered service booklet. The service booklet, for persons wishing to obtain a patent or certificate, also serves for demonstrating sailing time and ship trips on the Rhine and on other waterways. The service book is valid only if it is provided with the official notes. A service booklet without these official notes is invalid.
