How To Get a Job as a Deckhand | Superyacht Crew

So what is being a deckhand all about.

We have broken down the steps to help you find your first deck job in the super yacht industry.

Being comfortable on the water will definitely be an advantage, but it is not a prerequisite. Experience driving tenders or small watercrafts would be a transferable skill that will definitely stand you in good stead and should be listed clearly on your yachting CV.

It would be advisable to look for a junior deckhand position as your first yacht job. Form there you can process to Lead Deckhand or Bosun and eventually onto Mate or Chief Officer.

Check out our list of skills that will help you stand out when applying for your first job as a deckhand

Experience driving tenders or small water crafts

Some common rope knots

Able to swim

Water sports experience like kiteboarding, wake boarding, jets- it’s a bonus if you are an instructor

Scuba diving – a rescue diver or dive master is a huge bonus

Basic hospitality- being comfortable engaging with guests and crew onboard

Additional skills include: any trade like plumbing, carpentry, electrician, woodwork, IT etc. Living on the water means there is always maintenance to be done

Creating a Deckhand Yacht CV

It is important in the yachting industry that you tailor your CV for the specific position you are looking for. Be sure to include any additional water sports or trade skills as this will help you star out from the crowd. Any relevant yachting experience should be included in a section clearly defined, and separate from any land based experience.

Visit our Agency detailed explanation on how to prepare your cv. You can also check out our FREE CV template.

Finding Daywork as a Deckhand

What is daywork you ask? Think of it as one-day yachting internships to gain real world experience on yachts while getting paid a great day rate.

Be open to any kind of yacht daywork, as long as it gets your foot in the door with what you want to do. Learn how to do basic deck chores like exterior detailing, stainless polishing, bilge painting, and teak maintenance like a pro.

If you want to take a look at our Deckhand courses , that page should tell you all you need to know.

If you have more questions or comments be sure to get in touch .

We look forward to getting you onboard.
