Direct marine service · Recruitment options

Qualified captain support when your vessel or operation needs it.

Tell us what is needed. SeaOcay will review the vessel, assignment, qualifications, safety, insurance scope and availability before suggesting a route forward.

Three clear routes

Choose the relationship you actually need.

The contract, responsibilities and workflow change depending on whether SeaOcay provides the service or helps you recruit.

Provided directly by SeaOcay

Hire SeaOcay directly

For a suitable reviewed assignment, an approved SeaOcay captain acts as the direct marine-service provider under a separate service agreement.

Safety authority

The captain can pause, change or stop unsafe work.

Commercial pressure never overrides legal duties, weather judgment, rest, vessel condition or passenger safety.

  • Client authority and vessel details reviewed
  • Qualifications and fitness matched to the assignment
  • Written scope and command authority agreed
  • Known defects, route and contingency recorded
  • Incident and handover route established

Pre-launch limitation

Paid direct captain availability must not open until licensing scope, insurance, qualifications, service terms, vessel acceptance and incident procedures receive professional approval.
