Summary

150ft M/Y is looking for a Chief Engineer, minimum Y3 but flexible on license.

Vessel is fully private and is based between West Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale. Cruising area is US East coast and Bahamas. Runs with 7-8 crew - the C/E will be the only one in charge of the engine room but an engineer day worker can be hired for long periods of time depending on necessity and the size of the open projects.

The ideal candidate will be a solid engineer with previous experience (CAT engines, 2 Northern Lights generators), someone who's hands on and good at troubleshooting. We're looking for longevity as there is a good environment on board - we tend to have crew that stays for at least a year, more than that for HODs.

Good salary and package for the right candidate.

Start date is flexible but no later than August 10th.
