FAQ

How can I work on a yacht with no experience?

To get hired on a yacht with no experience you need to: Be in the right place at the right time. Have a professional resume. As a minimum you'll need to obtain your STCW 95/2010 course and ENG 1 medical. The yachting season typically runs in the mediterranean from April - September with the Caribbean season November - March. If you currently have no experience in yachting and would like to work on yachts then being local to the vessels will be a benefit. In the yachting regions you will typically find 'Crew Houses' to stay (hostels) and many people obtain their first jobs by Dockwalking which is effectively handing out CVs directly to vessels. This can often lead to Day Work opportunities which in some cases can lead towards full time employment. It is also a good way to obtain References to build your work experience.
