Summary

Ever fancy nipping around the Med on a yacht that can go 30 knots?

 

We currently have an exciting opportunity for a Temporary Lead Deckhand to join on board this 50m Private M/Y to help finish up their season ending around November.

 

The vessel is currently cruising the Mediterranean, seeking out the best beaches for the owners to enjoy as they wrap up their summer.

 

In just a few weeks, a brand-new 52ft chase boat will join the program, so the ideal candidate will already hold a Yachtmaster certification and have solid experience driving tenders of a similar size.

 

The crew is an international mix and a close-knit team. A four-week trip is planned for September, with the season expected to conclude around early October.

 

The yacht is looking for an outstanding Deckhand with a positive attitude and a willingness to pitch in across all departments.
