Sea time as Port Engineer

[dirwood]

Just wondering if it is possible to get sea time while working as a port engineer in order to maintain my Chiefs license or does taking a port engineer job mean not being able to renew your license?
Thanks for any info anyone may have

Generally, yes. See 46 CFR 10.209(c)(iv) and 10.211(b) for more information and limits on this.

Thank you for your reply, I will check out the CFR's.
