Michael entered the dockyard in 1955 as a shipwright apprentice. During the last years of his apprenticeship, he was allocated to the yard development office at a time when the dockyard was transitioning from Admiralty to Bailey. On completion of his apprenticeship he was assigned to work at the boathouse as a shipwright working on yachts. He then moved to the drawing office and started training for a management post eventually, moving up as project manager with the Newbuilding section, involved in most of the new buildings done at the Malta Drydocks. In 1985 he was moved to Malta Shipbuilding, and worked there up to his retirement in 1993. Interviewshttps://emuseum.heritagemalta.mt/objects/795/rdf
