* RESULTS COMING SOON
An industrial maritime skills challenge that tests the skills, physical and mental strength, and endurance of vessel crews. It is typically held in a obstacle course format, with competitors competing in a series of physical challenges that may include tasks such as coiling and lifting heavy lines, carrying rigging, throwing and securing lines, and donning safety equipment.
DIVISIONS - EXPLAINED
- JUNIOR DIVISION is for high school students (10th–12th grade). Introduces younger students to maritime fundamentals and safety culture.
- CADET DIVISION is or maritime academy and training program students. Prepares cadets for industry-level skill testing and allows upward mobility into the Pro Division.
- PROFESSIONAL DIVISION is Maritime Throwdown (Main Division – Active Deckhands) For active deckhands up to first-issue master’s license. Core competition with full-scale industrial skill requirements.
- LEGACY DIVISION is for captains, office staff, service providers, and veterans with prior deck experience. Honors skill and tradition, keeping experienced mariners engaged
Maritime Throwdown uses each athlete's course time to place them into the right Level within their Division. As competition grows, Levels will reflect both skill and consistency.
Each Level helps industrial maritime athletes see exactly where they stand and what to work on next.
After every course run, athletes get their targeted feedback - their Individual Development Plan - showing key areas to improve and track progress over time.
See Maritime Challenger Guide Chapter 2: Divisions & Types of Divisions for additional details.
