I'm new to the site and new to this game. I'm a PADI OWD, I currently live in Philadelphia and have a good paying job. But I'm sick of the daily grind of the north east and want to move down south and live life. I was wondering what options I have. I would really love to work as crew on a sailboat or live aboard. I'm sure these jobs are hard to come by. I also realize without an Instructor cert finding a job will be even more difficult. Has anyone made this big step and found a job aboard a boat. I'm 25 and not getting any younger. I found that I'm totally in love with the ocean and SCUBA and need to find some way to do this and make a living, even if its a very very meager living. I need to do this before I get married or have kids. If anyone has an experience or opinion I would love to hear it! Thanks
