Name at least one of the options being considered by Slocum while he was in Boston.

In 1892, Slocum stayed in Boston, all the while trying to decide what to do with his life and career. Slocum could easily go to work in a shipyard but was deterred by the $50 union fee that would be required to start. Keeping the job in the shipyard as a backup plan, Slocum continued to look for new opportunities.
