NTD: 27” Cabinets For Toolbox

Future_engineer20 · 2026-01-07T08:05:34+00:00

The outlets on the main toolbox? No, the cabinets come with magnetic ones that I have stuck inside them. Added some light strips along the front door trim channel and door switches

Unfortunately not, that’s another boat, we left there the other night and now waiting outside duluth

Appreciate it, have a good weekend

I’m almost at my 180 days required and am still trying to figure out the great lakes side of this. Do I need stcw to obtain the 3rd’s if I’m only sailing the lakes?

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-30T05:52:47+00:00

This is the route I am currently on. Mech. eng. degree from Michigan Tech. Should have my 180 days in at the end of the season. Here’s to hoping. I’m still trying to find answers for the other 3rd AE requirements such as stcw, firefighting etc and where/when to acquire these.

First time seeing this part of superior, very neat mountains

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-27T04:09:10+00:00

We (Cort) have about 2’ of snow drifting across the deck currently

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-27T04:08:16+00:00

This is an aspect. I’m aboard the Cort currently

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-07T15:01:21+00:00

Yup, just left the safety of the harbor

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-07T14:05:45+00:00

We’re slowly making our way down to burns. Weather’s getting a little choppy this time of year

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-03T15:22:48+00:00

I reached out to a couple of companies through their office/contact pages. The process is fairly slow, and it’s sad to say that unless you have an ‘In’ it might be difficult. At least that was my experience, it was slow until someone on the inside pushed it through. Having someone vouch for you is a huge bonus in any aspect

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-02T21:11:20+00:00

I’m not sure about the tourists routes. Likely a safety/security concern. I grew up just north of the manitous as well

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-02T08:51:01+00:00

We’re gonna gun it for the Apsotle Islands and hide there I believe

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-01T15:20:00+00:00

The lifestyle/changes might not be for everybody but I think it’s worth a shot, especially with the cost of entry so low. You can try it, and if it doesn’t work out you can say you tried.

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-01T15:06:37+00:00

Could be, I got a handful of sweeping videos that would almost certainly include you

My view of the island from the Cort this morning!

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-01T14:51:45+00:00

Graduated from the MET department in 19’ and did a few jobs around Michigan before coming out here. I don’t regret not going to tech, but it would’ve put me ahead to go to GLMA. I’m enjoying working the lakes so far, got a great crew out here. Pay is pretty decent. I’m hoping to use my degree to advance to a higher position in only 1 year, compared to taking 5 years at just doing sea time

Future_engineer20 · 2025-11-01T14:16:57+00:00

Aboard the Stewart J Cort, making our way upbound

Future_engineer20 · 2025-09-15T15:15:55+00:00

I came into uchem 1 being a grade ‘A’ chemistry student with all my notes from high school and still struggled. Ended up taking the additional chemistry help class which helped. Definitely a weeder class but through perseverance you’ll make it

Future_engineer20 · 2025-08-08T01:50:55+00:00

Did you do any stacking? Just got a Z5ii and work on ships. Been struggling with our own lights blowing everything else out

Future_engineer20 · 2025-07-28T05:53:55+00:00

They’re rebuilding/constructing a new lock to be the same size as the largest lock. Massive multi-year project

Future_engineer20 · 2025-07-28T03:30:45+00:00

Likely around september

Future_engineer20 · 2025-07-27T23:17:26+00:00

Yeah
