A fisheries assistant engineer already meets 34% of what the fisheries boatmaster role asks for. The move turns on 28 required skills not yet in the profile.
34%
77/ 100
1 Share of the fisheries boatmaster role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the fisheries assistant engineer profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.
Why this move works
A fisheries boatmaster role treats 18 of its required skills as things a fisheries assistant engineer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- Global Maritime Distress and Safety System
- International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships
- assessment of risks and threats
- communicate using the global maritime distress and safety system
- coordinate fire fighting
- extinguish fires
What stands in the way is 28 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 19 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A fisheries boatmaster role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a fisheries assistant engineer background worth leading with.
- already held manage ship emergency plans management skills
- already held coordinate fire fighting management skills
- already held operate ship propulsion system working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held operate ship rescue machinery working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held communicate using the global maritime distress and safety system working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held prevent sea pollution assisting and caring
All 19 carried skills, including the 18 the fisheries boatmaster role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a fisheries boatmaster role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 apply fishing maneuvres skill · sector specific
- 02 assess stability of vessels skill · sector specific
- 03 assess trim of vessels skill · sector specific
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

How this record was compiled
Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
