If your reason for asking this is to know what stream you choose then my friend through science you can go with almost every profession. And if its only about the career perspective then it depends on what interests you have aeronautical engineering is more on the conceptual, analytical skills, you need to be extremely good in your performance to land up in a rather good college for such course. And on the other hand, I have a friend who landed up in the merchant navy and comparatively the expected level of intelligence and knowledge is low.

Since you have already completed your B.Tech in ME you can now directly apply for a job in the merchant navy. Candidates who have finished the basic course in merchant navy can get jobs very easily through various consultants and placement agencies. Merchant navy fleet consist of cargo ships, container ships, barge carrying ships, tankers, bulk carriers, refrigerators ships, passenger ships, as well as roll off/roll on ships. The possibility of finding employment in cargo ships is more as compared to the others. Regards.

The opportunity to travel around the world and the lure of adventure on the high seas, besides the possibility of high remunerations attracts many youngsters to make a career in the Merchant Navy. Merchant Navy is different from the navy in the sense that it offers commercial services, as opposed to the navy, which is largely involved in the defense of a nation.
Merchant Navy is the backbone of international trade, carrying cargo all over the world. The merchant ships employ a huge number of workers to carry and deliver goods from one country to another. Without the merchant navy, much of the import-export business would come to a grin

You have a very bright chance of job opportunities after marine engineering. But I wonder why you want to do marine engineering after your mechanical engineering. If an offshore job is your priority then do merchant navy course. It is for a maximum 3-years duration only.
