Summary

We are looking for a hands-on Captain to join this private/charter expedition vessel. Private, calm and respectful owners that enjoy spending time onboard and connecting with the crew. 

Currently docked in the United States, therefore a valid B1/B2 visa is mandatory.  The vessel operates with a skeleton crew during the low season, expanding for trips and charters. 

The vessel has successfully completed charters in 2025, and hopes to expand its operations and adventurous itineraries sometime in the future. As a developing program, this role would suit an engaged Captain who takes pride in helping plan and grow the vessel’s program in close collaboration with the owner. This is an opportunity to join from an early stage, with a view toward longevity

Ideal Candidate

  • Experienced Captain with engineering skills and/or interests. Has to be confident in managing and maintaining operations and projects onboard. 
  • Mature personality with truly good leadership and communication skills. 

Package: to be discussed in the interview stage, 90 days leave. 

Thank you and have a lovely day!
