I worked on the Tietjen in 1972. The experience was something I hope I never forget. Dale S.

I was Passenger Porter aboard the Tietjen the summer of 1973 following my freshman year of college. Also filled some vacancies as porter, deck hand and second cook covering vacations and sick leaves of the regulars and to extend my time employed before returning to school. A very memorable experience.
