We are seeking a temporary Bosun to join our team for the remainder of the season. The role starts in Nantucket on August 12th, finishing on or around October 7th.

Requirements:
- Proven experience leading a deck team
- Strong leadership, communication, and organisational skills

- Deck team will include: Bosun, 1 Deckhand, and 1 Deck/Engineer
Ideal candidate is proactive, hands-on, and able to take initiative in both guest-facing and maintenance periods.
