UNDERWATER WELDER ESPECIALLY
Anytime you can learn a useful skill with an extra adjective in front of it, do so. Specialization only comes after general knowledge, and anything you can do to make your skills applicable in as many situations as possible will be of great benefit to you.
Also, if you can learn how to fix your own tools, that's one less person to rely upon and one more way to make yourself in-demand. But also don't sleep on being able to teach these skills - you won't be young forever.
