My name is Joseph, I’m 17 and on the Deck Modern Apprentice programme. It’s brilliant but hardwork, I was a bit nervous being at sea at 17 but the crew have made sure Im okay and I’m learning loads everyday - would definitely recommend it. #scotappweek2020 calm.ac/38fVJzE

My name's Beth & this is my mentor Eddie. As one of the youngest employees being on the vessel for 2 weeks can be scary to start with, he's always there to support me & answer any of my questions. I'm really enjoying it all the crew are great #scotappweek2020

Third officer Marino Giorgetti's light bulb moment has landed him the top prize in an international photography competition. The picture of him changing a lightbulb on the main mast of the MV Isle of Arran was the one that most impressed judges at seafarers' union Nautilus.
