Yacht Jobs This section is designed to help people find work aboard yachts,
megayachts, superyachts and other privately operated luxury vessels. The yacht industry
has seen tremendous growth, in size and number of vessels. The words megayacht,
superyacht are used so loosely, it’s difficult to distinguish the two, unless you're a naval
architect (naval architect jobs) or broker (link to a yacht broker - Fraser Yachts).

Jobs on large yachts are listed on yacht crew register . A yacht job may involve working
amidst luxury, but it’s a demanding job. See Yacht Jobs at Dockwalk, an online portal for
superyacht, megayacht and yacht captains and crews. Working on a yacht can require
competence in seamanship, management, supervision, budgeting, small ship
handling, navigation (jobs with Sperry) and more.

Working on a yacht can mean long hours in the hot sun, or long stretches in the yacht’s
galley preparing creative meals for owners, guests, and other crew. Working on a yacht
can mean an endless routine of washing, scrubbing, polishing, sanding and painting. A
yacht crew must work together as a team and sometimes take turns “wearing different
hats”.
For some people, it can be an appealing lifestyle. It can mean the pride of being
responsible for the lives and safety of all those aboard a multi-million dollar vessel, as well
as responsibility for the vessel itself. It can mean an unconventional lifestyle of working at
sea. For some, that can mean freedom, and for others, it can mean longing to be with their
families on shore. It can mean being in charge of some of the coolest water toys in the
world. It can mean getting a chance to see places one might not have the opportunity to
see with a land-based job. But it can mean long work days, standing watches at odd hours
and having to work harmoniously with a small group of comrades within the confines of a
vessel.
Finding work in the yacht industry can require contacts. It can require credentials. Since
yachts are privately owned in many instances, its not as if you can apply to a major cruise
line. Many yacht positions are filled through agencies with knowledge of the industry and
relationships with vessel owners.

While it may be one thing to
WORK on a yacht, the
business of SELLING yachts
as a Yacht Broker is a different
line of work altogether. Yacht
Broker can mean someone
who dresses nicely with a
blue wool blazer and
negotiates a deal for a classic
125' Feadship. It can also
mean someone who wears
blue jeans and tries to sell a
1987 sailboat that a boatyard
can't seem to push off a cliff.
There are plenty of the latter
type of brokers out there,
especially with the downturn
of the economy resulting in
many small boat owners who
simply walk away from their
"treasure".

Yacht Broker positions with

Prospects for
employment in the yacht
industry will depend on
your skills and
experience. There are
different positions in a
person can find work.
The required skills can
range from a US Coast
Guard master or mate
license, engineer
license, and STCW
(Standards for Training
Certification of
Watchkeeping). Yacht
jobs can include
experienced captains,
mates, engineers, chefs,
stewards,
stewardesses, and other
positions. Naturally, with
a smaller the vessel,
there may be more
overlapping in
responsibilities than on
a larger vessel.

Why Yacht Jobs Can
Sometimes Be Harder To
Find...
The same on-line
opportunities for finding a job
with a ferry company or
tugboat company might not
be there with yachting jobs
because vessels are privately
owned. And many people
don’t like to publicize the fact
that they own a particular
vessel. That’s why yacht jobs
are found through your
personal network, word of
mouth from other yacht crew,
a crew agency, or some of the
on-line resources and
databases out there for crews
and yachts.

Working on yachts can be appealing for a number of reasons. It can be intoxicating for some to
work for some of the world's most powerful and influential people. It can seem more exciting to
work on a luxurious megayacht out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida than a crude oil tanker making milk
runs to the Persian Gulf. There are the parties, the watertoys, the ports and nightlife, and the
chance to become an intimate member of a small crew. However, it's important to keep in mind
that serving on yachts can be very demanding. It can mean cleaning, vacuuming, and polishing in
the hot sun. It can mean long days that go beyond the four on - eight off watchstanding schedule
of a mate on a container ship. It's a lifestyle that has to suit your personal likes and dislikes. And
only you can be the judge of that. Good luck!
