I would love to test that. Now just getting enough votes to reach the cap.

Sometimes I wonder if ALL questions get a close vote.

I'd say that traveling by freighter between Europe and the USA is a travel question, whether you are a paying passenger or a worker on the boat.

eh, I didn't vote to close, but that question sort of got into "how can I get a job working on ships" territory, which is getting off-topic

but I still think better to answer it than close

There are a few possible reasons to close but 'off topic' as such is not it. Duplicate, maybe, but it is a travel Q.

He wants to make that travel and hopes that working will get him there cheap. Which has been asked about before.

But that guy did not have a seamans book, according to what I read in the question.
