Well I thought I should introduce myself again! My name is James, I'm 22 years old and I'm currently working as Skipper aboard PS Canberra, PS Emmylou and PV Pride of the Murray - all based in Echuca, Victoria! I was on Paddleducks a few years ago - then when I was working for long periods of time aboard PV Murray Princess & MV Proud Mary I lost the time to come online, so now I'm back 
It's good to be back again!
James

Hi James,
Welcome back.
Hope you'll keep us up to date with goings on on the Mighty Murray.
cheers

Hi,
Yeah, I'll definitely try and keep you all up to date with the goings on in Echuca!

Wow James,
Who would have predicted that teenage enthusiasm would turn into a professional career?
Welcome back from another earlier contact.
Now to nurture the next year 10 work-experience person who comes aboard.

Hi Roderick,
I know, I didn't think it would happen myself - but apparently if you want it badly enough you can get there!! I spent the last three years as Cruise Director on the MV Expedition (now the Proud Mary again) and as First Officer aboard PS Murray Princess, but now I am exactly where I wanted to be (albeit starting a university degree ((Bachelor of Business - Maritime and Logistics Management)) via correspondence).
That's right, we have had a school student from South Australia do some time with us - and it is good to finally be the one doing the encouraging!
Hope to catch up with you one day in Echuca!
James
