Summary

Captain (500 GT) – 34m Private / Light Charter | Mediterranean

We are seeking an exceptional 500 GT Captain to lead a truly special 38m private / light-charter yacht operating seasonally in the Mediterranean.

This is a single-season Mediterranean program with very light charter use and warm, family-oriented ownership who value professionalism, discretion, and genuine human connection. The owner is active, adventurous, and hands-on — someone who enjoys hiking, swimming, and exploring ashore as much as time onboard — and is looking for a Captain who naturally fits into that lifestyle.

This is not a “drive-the-boat-and-disappear” role. The ideal candidate is engaged, proactive, communicative, and passionate about yachting, with strong local Mediterranean knowledge and a calm, confident leadership style.

The Right Candidate

  • 500 GT license (minimum)
  • Proven experience as Captain or a strong step-up background on similar-size vessels
  • Excellent Mediterranean cruising knowledge
  • Highly active, fit, and energetic
  • Outstanding communicator with owners, guests, and crew
  • Proactive problem-solver with strong organizational skills
  • Genuine love for the lifestyle — on and off the water
  • Absolutely no smoking, vaping, or drugs (non-negotiable)

Program Highlights

  • Private with very light charter
  • Single-season Mediterranean operation
  • Family-focused, respectful ownership
  • Active, outdoors-oriented program
  • Stable, well-run operation with long-term vision

Package

  • Above-industry salary
  • Supportive ownership who value loyalty and excellence

This is a rare opportunity to step into a dream program — one where quality of life, trust, and shared values matter just as much as professionalism.

Discretion assured. Exceptional candidates only.
