There is a good site about marine related jobs called Crew4Crew (http://www.crew4crew.net/)

Search there by location, hope it will help you a bit.

Answer 2

1) You need to get a Merchant Mariner's Document from the Coast Guard.

2) You need to take Basic Safety Training from one of the regional schools. In NY, both the US Merchant Marine Academy and SUNY Maritime offer BST periodically.

3) You need to get an STCW sheet from the Coast Guard.

THEN you can look for a job. Try the SIU, too. (www. seafarers.org)
