Assist with the operation, inspection and maintenance of boatyard equipment
Assist with maintenance and repairs of company trucks, trailers, Travelift, boom truck/crane and other equipment
Transport boats, trailers, equipment and supplies between company locations
Maintain clean, organized and safe shops, storage buildings and boatyard areas

Compensation

$26–$40 per hour, depending on experience, qualifications and certifications.

Developing candidates with strong mechanical aptitude may start toward the lower end of the range, while experienced marine technicians with strong diagnostic, mechanical, electrical and/or systems experience may qualify toward the upper end.
