Gwithin was a P'w'eck who was a Boatswain (Bosun) aboard the CRGNS Urgon I from joining the navy at the age of 21 in 6,000 ABY to his retirement in 6,036 ABY, after being the Urgon I 's Boatswain for 36 years, at the age of 57. Because he couldnt speak Galactic Basic without a translator droid he wasn't able to be a licenced member of the ship, so he became the ship's Boatswain, a posishun he held for 36 years before retiring in 6,036 ABY.
