The Fourth Induction is the sequel to crewshiplife, Cruise Ship Life. Join our host on his quest for true love whilst working and playing in the unique surroundings of cruise ship life. The adventure continues on land and sea. After surviving the emotional rollercoaster of a first contract at sea on a cruise ship, what next? The search for true love continues, with a few bumps in the road ahead. Our host may appear to take the form of a slightly inebriated, socially confused philanderer but like us all, he is just searching for 'the one.' Finding true love takes time, especially floating around the planet on a cruise ship. Shippies exist in a bubble and are quite often oblivious to what was going on in the outside real world. This existence is just fine, we have our work, friendships, relationships, and routines, all while earning tax-free dollars sailing around the planet. Whenever a crew member joins a ship, no matter the level of experience or rank, they are always required to sit through three safety inductions within the first few days. Many shippies believe that the fourth induction was spending the night in the company of a member of the salon beauty team. The fourth induction means different things to everyone - in this case it was learning to cope with the transient lifestyle of cruise ship life, heartache, loss and falling in and out of love. Will this be the cruise ship contract where true love is found?

These amusing and mostly almost true memoirs have now finally come to life sharing some small legacy of those memorable years at sea.
crewshiplife is a love story about change; from living and working on land, to transitioning to the biggest cruise ship on the planet. This series covers the emotional journey of discovery and adventure recalling the excitement and challenges of living and working on a cruise ship for a new joining crewmember; from travelling to training, front desk work, crewmembers, passengers, responsibility, lost luggage, complaints and fun parties. Life at sea is fun, funny, fast, busy, enjoyable pressure and promotes comradeship amongst both passengers and crew. Cruise ship life is a very social lifestyle with a variety of engagements contrasting from the regal elegant atmosphere of the Commodores cocktail parties to the beer-soaked dance floor of the crew disco parties.
