Your Ship-to-Shore
Starter Kit

If you've been finding yourself thinking about land life more often, but don't know where to begin, this is for you.

Before you start thinking about jobs, resumes, or applications, there are two questions you need to answer first:

Can you actually afford to leave ships?Because until you know what life on land will realistically cost, every decision feels risky. You'll keep telling yourself "Maybe after my next contract." Or ….

And what would you actually do on land?
Most crew know they want a change, but have no idea how to connect their ship experience to opportunities on land. 

That's exactly what this guide helps you do. 

Inside, you'll:

• Use the Land Life Budget Calculator to work out what life on land could realistically cost.
• Get clear on your timeline - are you're ready to leave now, after your next contract, or further down the track.
• Learn a simple way to use your existing skills to identify land-based jobs you may already be qualified for.

You don't need your entire future figured out today, you just need a starting point.

Your Current Skills 
Can Open New Doors

You know you want to leave ships, the problem is every time you search online, you hit the same wall:  "What job can I actually do?"

Maybe your shipboard job title doesn't exist on land, or you don't want to keep doing the same type of work, or perhaps you've spent hours searching job boards and still can't see where your experience fits.  That's exactly why this guide was created.

Inside, you'll learn a different way of looking at your ship experience.

Instead of focusing on your job title, you'll learn how to use your skills, experience, and strengths to uncover land-based opportunities you may never have considered before.

You'll discover:

• How to identify land jobs that could match your current income goals.
• A simple 3-step process to figure out what type of land job you could do next.
• 100+ real land-based job ideas linked to the skills you already use onboard.

Because you have valuable experience, the challenge is knowing where those skills fit outside of ship life into land based opportunities and that's exactly what this guide will help you do.

Know Before You Go
Get Your Exit Strategy

You know you're ready to leave ships, but how do you prepare for a transition when nobody really tells you what to expect?  Most crew focus on finding a land job, but the ship-to-shore transition is much bigger than that.

Without a plan, it's easy to underestimate the financial, emotional, lifestyle, and practical changes that come with leaving ship life behind. 

When you joined ships, there were people to guide you through every step of the process.

Someone met you at the hotel, at the gangway, someone showed you where to go onboard and someone explained how everything worked.

When you leave ships, nobody hands you the manual to settle into land life, and that's why so many crew find parts of the transition to land life harder than expected. That’s where this guide comes in.

Inside, you'll discover the 7 key areas every crew member should think about before they leave ships, including finances, identity, purpose, adapting to land life, relationships, and planning your next chapter.

Because leaving ships isn't just about changing jobs, it's about building a life that works once you get there. 

Get the knowledge you need before you go - not after.
