The URL is a very long one so this is how to access the data you want.....

Open the Findmypast site.
Click on Search Records in the blue bar at the top>>>>
Select Education & Work from drop-down menu.
Enter Dominic's name and YoB.
Go down page and click on Browse Record Collection>>> click on Merchant Navy & Maritime>>> click on Apply filters.
Click on Search Education and Work>>>

Dominic Vincent should be at the top of the hits.
Click on the camera icon to get the image of the Record Card.

Meant to mention...
The number alongside the photograph is the unique ID of a vessel Dominic signed onto as 3rd mate. This site http://www.crewlist.org.uk/data/vesselsnum.php has an index of ID numbers and gave the vessel ID of 140557 to be the SS ANDALUSIAN out of Liverpool, a steam ship built in 1918. Dominic signed on her in Jan 1919 and again in August 1921.

The Andalusian was torpedoed and sunk in March 1941. http://www.wrecksite.eu/wreck.aspx?31201
