Summary

Looking for a lead deckhand / bosun for a 65m+ vessel currently for sale.

Only looking for candidates with UK / EU passports who LIVE in the UK / EU - DO NOT apply if you do not LIVE in this area. No couples.

This is a yacht position and we require people with yacht experience, candidates with just commercial backgrounds will not be considered.

Solid experience with paint & varnish systems is required, good tender driving skills and strong deck product knowledge. This role is not likely to build much sea time in the next couple of months though this could change when the vessel sells. We are looking for candidates who could be an asset to any new owners so additional qualifications / skills (diving, sailing, PWC instructor etc), while not essential, will be looked on favourably.
