99% of the ratings in the Navy are or can be attached to ships. CT (cryptologic technician) has a lower rate than most, and many ratings have an OUTUS/CONUS (foreign/US) assignment rotation instead of ship-shore rotation, but this by no means excludes anyone from sea duty in the Navy. Basically, any job in the Navy can be assigned any place, any where, anytime.

Most jobs require so much time at sea. Which is usually more than at shore. There are some jobs where you might never be stationed on a ship by luck. Seabees, which are contruction dont really spend time at sea. You could be a corpsmen and be deployed to Iraq with the Marines.

The only job I can think of is SEABEE's the navies construction battalion they are not assigned to a ship. They do however get deployed regularly to do all sorts of construction projects. So if your trying to duck being sent abroad then don't join the navy everybody gets foreign deployed.

EVERY rating deploys. period. As stated CTx, SeaBee and some Aviation ratings don't get permanently assigned to ships as often.
CTI, for instance.. has no permanent party personnel aboard any vessel, although the linguists do deploy with the ships on a regualr basis (called Direct Support)

the HM rate has a fifty fifty chance of being ship or shore duty, if you go green side( go to the Fleet Marine force) it counts as a ship rotation< but you can be deployed with them so you see some ship time but not a whole lot

CT, some ratings that deal with certain planes, you have to look up the available jobs, but remember it all depends on your absvab score, the higher you get the better jobs, otherwise everyone goes to sea or they deploy while on shore.

there is a very slim chance of being in the navy and not having to be on a ship. usually its 6months on 6 months off, but their are some jobs that stay ashore i just don't know what they are.....sorry

A sailor belongs on a ship and a ship belongs at sea. If y ou do not think that seabees go to sea, how in the devil do you think they get to where they are going - their equipment goes on amphibs and they go with it.
CTs would go on larger ships, not the smaller ones. Something like teh Enterprise is a Hilton compared to what I rode on.
