Ship's Plumber

A Ship’s Plumber job consists of maintenance and repair to make sure that plumbing throughout the ship is in good working order. This includes the toilet, sewer and drainage systems. They will handle the hoses when potable water is being loaded onto the vessel and maintain potable water systems. The ship’s blackwater and greywater plant systems must be looked after too. On a cruise ship the Ship’s Plumber will also maintain and repair swimming pool and environmental systems where needed and respond to passenger complaints regarding the water supply / plumbing.
