Well, yes. Marine Engineering jobs will require you to travel for long durations, often a few months depending on the type of ship, voyage length and the agreement between the marine engineer and the employer. Sometimes you can get your family on the ship, but extended periods at sea and on-board duties often make it challenging to lead a consistent home life.
No matter how promising and bright the future of Marine Engineering looks, it has its own downsides that you must be aware of. You must be very passionate about the sea and mechanics to move ahead in this field.
