Hi Kathy,

I have found www.theshipslist.com very useful for finding ships and shipping lines.

Hi again,

I think you are going to have to pay to find crew members, but you might find www.crewlist.org.uk useful. It will give you links to a paysite with crew lists and also information on finding crew.

If you do a search for the words "merchant ships" and choose the websites board, you will find a few links which our forum members have posted to try to help others.

Hope some of them might prove successful to you.
