To whom it may concern,
I, Christopher Walker, am applying for Marine Engineering Traineeship sea-time with
a shipping company.
As a Marine Engineering Trainee, it is required by AMSA that I must complete 36
weeks of sea service on a vessel of over 3000 kilowatts. I am enquiring for the
position of a Marine Engineer Trainee, to complete the said 36 weeks of sea service.
I am currently enrolled at AMC, Tasmania, in Marine Engineering Class 1/2, and am
able to put my current studies on hold for sea-time if need be.
All of my study so far has been self-funded.
I only require sea-time, as to date, I hold:
- Certificate III in Automotive Vehicle Body (Panel Beater)
- Certificate III in Mechanical Engineering
- Diploma of Marine Engineering Watchkeeper Part A and B
- STCW 95 Safety Training card
- AMSA Medical
- Passport
- Letter of recommendation from Farstad Chief Engineer Tony Horner
Thank-you for your time, hope to hear from you soon via email or by phone.
All the best, kind regards,
Christopher David Walker

Objectives
The panel beating industry has been slow and therefore I am ready for new challenges. After
considering many other career paths, the merchant maritime industry was a standout to me.
I am interested in finding a position as a Marine Engineer where I can use and expand my skills
set into new horizons and improve my knowledge.
I am currently enrolled and attending AMC, Tasmania, in Marine Engineering Class 1/2, and am
able to put my current studies on hold for sea-time if need be.
As a Marine Engineering Trainee, it is required by AMSA that I must complete 36 weeks of sea
service on a vessel of over 3000 kilowatts.
I believe that I will be of a great asset to the company, given my previous experiences in
workplace environments working as a team member, problem solving, and competency with
tools and equipment.
