CV mailing to crewing agencies and shipowners
Simplify your job search if you don’t have time for manual email sending
The market is changing, and today simply sending a CV is no longer enough. We see that currently most important are:
- being first among applicants for a vacancy
- writing directly to shipowners, not just intermediaries
- having a professional cover letter in English
Usually, seafarers spend hours searching for contacts and sending emails manually. Our system does this for you: your CV goes to up-to-date companies immediately after moderation.
We take care of the technical part: monitoring server reputation and email settings so that your messages land in the managers’ primary inboxes, not spam.
For all maritime professions
The seafarer’s profession encompasses a very wide range of directions and specializations, but employment always happens through crewing or directly with the shipowner. Therefore, sending a seafarer’s CV is an excellent fit for representatives of the deck, engine, and catering crew on all types of ships.
Individual approach
Seafarers differ by their knowledge, experience, and visa set. We have developed several mailing types. Each client receives only the necessary amount of service. CVs of our clients’ seafarers are sent only to companies where a potential employer may be interested. No spam to unnecessary companies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Short and to the point: what you need to know before ordering
💬 How relevant is the crewing database in 2026?
We update our database daily. This year, we added many companies from the offshore sector and renewable energy. We use a large number of addresses from various regularly updated sources, ensuring maximum coverage of potential employers.
💬 Can I use the service from any country?
Yes. We work with seafarers worldwide. Your current location does not matter.
💬 What is the effectiveness of the mailing service?
Effectiveness depends on your position, experience, age, English level, and visas. We send emails to the companies you chose, but cannot promise employment or that every recipient will review your email. In your account you will see clear statistics: delivered, opened, clicks, responses. These metrics help objectively assess the effectiveness of the service and, if necessary, adjust your employment strategy.
💬 How to use the service?
Choose a package on the service page, upload the seafarer’s CV (CV or Application Form) and pay. Payment methods include Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay. For Ukraine, transfer to card or account is possible. After payment, a personal account with reports opens.
💬 How to exclude companies?
First fill in the fields in step 1: select a service, provide the email, upload the CV. Click “Next.” Step 2 will open. In Step 2: • Open the "Exclude companies" block. • Find crewing companies by name. • Check them with checkboxes. Click “Continue.” These companies will not receive an email and will be permanently added to the blacklist and tied to the email specified in Step 1.
💬 How to get 5 cover letters for free?
Letters are prepared in Step 3. In Step 1 choose a service, upload the CV and provide an email. In Step 2, exclude companies if needed. In Step 3 choose one of five options: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok or the branded template. Wait 30 to 90 seconds and select the letter that suits you. All five options are free.
💬 What are the turnaround times?
The initial mailing typically takes place within 15 minutes to 24 hours after payment and CV verification. A repeat mailing occurs after 7 days if included in the package. Creating or editing the CV takes up to 2 business days. We will contact you within 24 hours after consultation.
💬 What guarantees are provided?
We operate under a defined protocol and show actual statistics in the dashboard. If you have questions about quality, provide the order number, we will review and offer a solution.
💬 CV requirements for effective mailing
Provide contacts, desired salary, English level, readiness date, documents and visas, and five years of position-related experience. For machinery, specify the model and horsepower of the main engine. For decking, specify DWT or GT. Add a current business photo.
💬 What determines the price of services?
Pricing is formed from three parts: infrastructure and deliverability of emails, platform support and database updates, team expertise and targeting setup. Payment depends on workload and level of personalization, not on your desired salary.
💬 How many offers will I receive?
The most responses come for in-demand positions: Captain, Chief Engineer, Chief Officer, Second Engineer, ETO, Welder, Machinist, with suitable age and documents. With one or two contracts and good English, responses are stable. At entry-level positions responses are fewer. A US visa often increases the number of responses.
💬 What does the specialist consultation provide?
This is a paid add-on service. Price: $10. A lawyer with crewing experience will contact you. They will clarify your situation, review your CV, coordinate mailing details and advise how to increase responses. If needed, they will assist at every step and prepare a simple job-search strategy and your presentation. If you are confident you can set everything up yourself and know the recipients, you may skip the consultation.
💬 Where can I view responses from companies to the mailing?
We create a separate mailbox for each order and send from it. Replies come to this address and appear in your correspondence. You will receive the link and access to the mailbox together with the mailing report.
💬 What is the ExtraTime option?
ExtraTime is a special setting for those who need to find a job as quickly as possible. It adds 20% to the cost but allows you to choose the frequency of mailings much more often: instead of the standard 7-day wait, you can launch a new mailing every 24 hours. It is an ideal choice for "hot" vacancies or when you need to quickly cover a wide market.
💬 Which is better: sending CV as a file or a link?
Choose 'Attach file' for better inbox deliverability and responses — managers prefer seeing the CV immediately. Choose 'Download link' if you need detailed open and click analytics. For repeat mailings (x2, x4), the system automatically combines these methods for the best results.
