Description

The shipyard is equipped with many cranes, machinery and vehicles that require maintenance. Millwright apprentices install, maintain, repair, and overhaul shipyard machinery.

They also inspect and maintain cranes throughout the entire shipyard and repair machinery in the various waterfront shops. Apprentices will work in an automotive shop to repair company vehicles and other transportation equipment.
