Hello



Merchant navy has two departments. One is deck side which looks after navigation ( taking the ship from one point to another or in layman term 'Driver' of the ship) and cargo operations.
Another is engine side which looks after engine, other machineries and all other technical aspect of ship (in layman term u can say they are like 'mechanic' of the ship).
The minimum eligibility for both departments is to have 60% score in PCM more than 50 marks in English in 10th or 12th standard.Also You should be unmarried and Your age should be below 20 years.

Physical Requirements:-
1. Eye Sight = 6/6,
2. Height = 167 cms,
3. Weight = 50 Kg
4. Chest = 77 cm (Normal) / 82 cm (Expanding)

I hope this helps.

hey dear, your score is less in 12th merchant navy needs 60 % in 12th although your score in mechanical in good for merchant navy.You can try once if you get selected that's good and if some issue generates than you have to take a source help from the person who is serving merchant navy for more than 6 years.
