Hire yacht crew
Qualified yacht crews are in great demand. Yacht’s crew members live on board, receive good remuneration and have the opportunity to discover the world that is usually only accessible to the privileged. A good team must also have appropriate training. All members of the yacht's crew – from ordinary positions to the captain – must have a medical certificate ENG1 or its equivalent – certificate STCW-95, take safety on board a ship course (Basic Safety Training, BST), etc.
As a rule, at least six job categories can be found on a mega yacht including a yacht captain, mechanic, chief stewardess, cook, second stewardess, and deckhand.
The captain is the most important person on a yacht.
The work requires experience and considerable knowledge including legal knowledge. Captain's Log Book is several dozen books instructing how and what should be on the ship.
The captain of a yacht is solely responsible for proper vessel management, navigation safety, maintaining order on a vessel and preventing harm to a vessel and people on it. Operating a yacht is a significantly complex matter, the professional captain is more aware of the intricacies than an owner as the captain has the skills and knowledge only special educational institutions can provide. Captains are first of all educated on how to react to emergency and non-standard situations and most importantly on how to avoid them. And who do you believe is responsible for the life and health of everyone on a yacht?
Finally captain’s knowledge of the location of inland waterways, water stations and refueling points, anchorages and shelters where you can safely spend the night while at the pier or at anchor, allowing you to enjoy a beautiful sunset and not worry about what has not yet been done for a safe holiday of a yacht owner and guests.
