Summary

The vessel is a quiet, family-style, privately owned yacht that operates a dual-season schedule, typically spending summers cruising the Mediterranean and winters in the Caribbean. However, this winter, the yacht has been in the yard undergoing a refit. The yacht runs with a crew of four: Captain, Chef, Stewardess, and Deck/Mate. On trips, the owners are active and enjoy watersports, spending much of their time in and around the water. To be considered for this role, you must have prior experience on a similar sized vessell and a strong sailing background. Yachtmaster Offshore essential. Dive tickets a bonus.

Key Responsibilities:

• Assist in the daily maintenance and operation of the yacht’s deck and systems.

• Perform routine mechanical and electrical maintenance of onboard systems, ensuring the yacht runs smoothly.

• Handle mooring, docking, and sailing operations alongside the crew.

• Maintain the cleanliness and condition of the yacht’s exterior and interior spaces.

• Troubleshoot and repair technical issues as they arise.

Perks:

• Competitive salary based on experience and qualifications.

• Opportunity to work on a world-class sailing yacht.

• Join a close-knit, professional crew.
