Summary

42m, Private, Cayman Island flagged, Motor Yacht is seeking a Chef to join an adventurous crew with a passion for exploring remote areas of the world. The yacht is currently in Costa Rica. And will continue north to Baja Mexico, West Coast USA, Canada and Alaska for the summer, with the reciprocal program after summer. This is not your regular run of the mill ‘white boat’, with an off the beaten path program that involves fishing. Which in turn means a plethora of fresh seafood to work with.

Although the yacht differs from the normal milk run programs and comes across more relaxed, the chef is still required to bring a first class dining experience. Previous chefs have found they tend to have more free time with this program which has allowed them to spend time honing in their skills, ie, making fresh bread and pasta etc. Guest and crew food should for the most part be made from scratch and be healthy and flavorful. The yacht has had some great chefs over the years, and we are looking to continue a high level of quality.  

The package includes annual flights, medical and dental insurance, with salary dependent on experience, at industry standard or above. The candidate must have no large visible tattoos or excessive jewelry / piercings with a clean and presentable appearance. A B1/B2 visa or working capability in the USA is a must. All crew have heavy water sports interest (fishing, surfing, spearfishing, kiteboarding) and enjoy nature activities, a like minded candidate would be a preferred fit.
