Get started

Complete your application

The more you fill in, the easier employers can match you to the right boat. Add what you can — you can always come back and finish later.

We never ask for your Social Security number. That only ever goes straight to an employer if you get hired. Privacy policy →
THE 75% BONUS

Reach 75% and we start sending this out for you.

Watch the Profile strength meter at the bottom of your screen. Once it hits 75% or better, you’re not just waiting to get noticed on the hiring deck — we start emailing your application to hiring companies on your behalf, aimed at the outfits crewing up for the work you do and the rivers you run. No charge, and you don’t have to ask. How the board works →

Deckhand skills

The basics are what get you hired and promoted. Check what you can do.

Tankerman experience

A few things only a real tankerman can answer — this is what gets you placed.

Cook & galley experience

A good cook keeps the whole crew running — tell us what you can put out and how you run a galley. This is what gets you placed.

Wheelman experience

Tell us the water you actually know — this is the match operators care about most.

Texas Gulf / W. GIWW
Louisiana / Central GIWW
E. GIWW / Gulf (MS·AL·FL)
Mississippi River
Illinois / Ohio & tributaries / Tenn-Tom

Engineer experience

The engine room gets hired on what you can actually fix — tell us what you’ve run.

Captain experience

Command is hired on your record and your crew. The wheel & route questions above apply too — fill those in, then this.

The first thing an employer looks at. List your most recent boat first. New to the river? Leave this blank.

Stays private. We only pass it to an employer once you’ve agreed to move forward.

No Social Security number. No documents uploaded here. If an employer wants to move forward, you send those straight to them.
