Alaska Boat Captain-Prince William Sound

• USCG Master 25 GRT or higher required

• Inland endorsement acceptable (Near Coastal preferred)

• Available mid-May to mid-September

• As part of our safety culture and USCG compliance, captains must participate in a Drug Free Vessel Program, including pre-employment and random testing.

We’re hiring a USCG Master Captain to join us at Pangaea Adventures (pangaeaadventures.com) for the summer season in Prince William Sound, Alaska (home port: Valdez).

This is a seasonal role (with some flexibility on start and end dates, roughly mid-May through mid-September) operating USCG-inspected 15 GRT vessels in support of our sea kayaking, glacier, backcountry and wildlife programs. If you believe humility sharpens judgment, courage means speaking up, and that safety and accountability guide how we look out for one another, we’ll probably get along just fine.
