Throughout my <\/em>ten years as a superyacht stewardess, people have been intrigued by the job and what they imagine it entails. Admittedly, I have <\/em>worked for celebrities and <\/em>visited places I doubt I would\u2019ve seen if it weren\u2019t for the job. However, being repeatedly woken by the steward\u2019s buzzer and requests to “make the engines less noisy” is infuriating, even when it\u2019s at the behest of one of the world\u2019s most famous drummers. And guess what? A visit to Mustique is a lot less paradisiacal when you have to spend your one hour ashore frantically trying to find a blind masseuse and a case of vintage ros\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a seasoned yachtie, I can tell you all about the pros and cons of this much-lusted over job. Read on and find out if a life below decks could be the life for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll earn the kind of cash that can buy you a house<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Become a yachtie and you\u2019ll see a fat paycheck and your bank balance balloon as you start to earn the big bucks. We\u2019re talking average monthly salaries starting around 3,000 Euro. If that doesn\u2019t sound like a lot, keep in mind that you\u2019ll have all of your expenses (everything from toothpaste to health insurance) conveniently paid for by the yacht\u2019s owner. Smart sailors know that savings can quickly add up, especially when they are supplemented by generous charter tips. Hello down payment on a little white house by the sea! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pro tip:<\/strong>Many yachties get a bit carried away with being able to drop 150\u20ac on a ros\u00e9 lunch without flinching. I did, and the fact that I now own a ridiculous amount of unwearable shoes doesn\u2019t make up for it. While it\u2019s ok to occasionally revel in having an abundance of cash to spend on whatever you like, you\u2019ll regret it if you don\u2019t see your salary as an opportunity to invest in your future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll see some of the most stunning and remote corners of the world
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

While the well-trodden Mediterranean-in-summer-and-Caribbean-in-winter <\/em>circuit is nothing to be sniffed at, you could also hit the jackpot with a more adventurous owner. Imagine setting sail for a round-the-world trip, experiencing the lagoon-like waters and balmy trade-winds of the Pacific and\/or exploring the Antarctic\u2019s remote, white wilderness? Become a yachtie and these dreamlands can become your next port of call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personal faves: <\/strong>If you’re lucky like me, you\u2019ll get to sail to the awe-inspiring Gal\u00e1pagos islands<\/a> where you’ll experience close encounters with sea turtles, sea lions, and rays. Or, you’ll visit the incredible Marlborough Sounds and soak up cinematic colours, not to mention the chance to taste green-lipped mussels, washed down with that celebrated Kiwi wine: the Sauvignon Blanc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll laugh your butt off with newfound friends<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s usually a tremendous sense of camaraderie on board a superyacht. The shared \u2018pains\u2019 of living the yachtie life acts as a kind of social glue and will no doubt result in friendships that you\u2019ll cherish forever, not to mention places to crash in all corners of the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personal faves:<\/strong>I\u2019m still regularly in touch with many of the funny, interesting, and lovely people that I worked with eons ago. In fact, it\u2019s a whopping twelve years since I crossed paths with the Italian deckhand with a mop of blonde curls and wicked sense of humour that I still hang with. We\u2019ll be celebrating our 11th anniversary later this year.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll entertain your mates back home with stories that will blow their minds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A season on the sea will give you enough stories to entertain your mates back home for the next two years. My first season\u2019s stories range from the sensational (a famous rapper handing me 500 USD for packing his suitcase in under a minute) to the distressing (days of rough seas and being violently ill in the Bay of Biscay). And from the hilarious (getting my butt stuck in a porthole while sneaking back onboard after curfew) to the totally brag-worthy ones (chats with Jamiroquay on a private Jamaican beach).
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll soak up epic sunsets and spot amazing wildlife all the time<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The most dramatic seascapes, the illustrious green flash, pods of dolphins, and seas alight with phosphorescence are just a few of the wondrous sights that\u2019ll become part of your everyday life. When sailing conditions are sweet and you\u2019re bantering away with fellow crew while helming one of the world\u2019s most beautiful sailing boats, it\u2019s easy to think that this is the <\/em>best job in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pro tip: <\/strong>While it’s tempting to drag your feet and whine as you get hauled out of bed in the dead of night, try your best to stay stay present. Looking back, it\u2019s during those 4-8am watch shifts that I witnessed the most vivid sunrises, saw the most incredible marine life, and had the best conversations with fellow crew.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll feel as though you\u2019re stuck in a BBC drama<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Those weeks (or months) when you have charter guests (or the boss) offer plenty of moments that are less than ideal. To be honest, waking up early to serve breakfast and working a 16-18 hour day is nothing out of the ordinary. While some guests show genuine appreciation, others might call you \u2018the girl\u2019 and talk to you like a duchess might to a servant in a BBC costume drama. And you? That\u2019s right, you have your hands behind your back and you smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pro tip:<\/strong> Whether you\u2019re dealing with an owner with more money than manners, a toffee-nosed guest, or an inconsiderate lump whose offensiveness is unintentional, don\u2019t take it personally\u2014 it\u2019s their problem, not yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll find ironing someone else\u2019s undies to be positively unglamorous<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The work mostly consists of detailing and, believe you me, there\u2019s nothing glamorous about that. Mopping up blood juice from the broken meat freezer is something no one aspires doing. Nor is folding little fans from the ends of toilet paper, dusting behind never opened books, or ironing the captain\u2019s Calvin Kleins. In fact, many tasks you\u2019ll be asked to do will make no sense at all. <\/em>Guess what? You\u2019ll be doing them anyway.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pro tip:<\/strong> Questioning whether certain tasks are necessary or suggesting a different way of doing things hardly ever goes down well. Almost comparable to being in the merchant navy, you\u2019ll need to respect the chain of command. Simply keep your cool and do as you\u2019re asked and you\u2019ll have very little to worry about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You won\u2019t make it to your best friend\u2019s wedding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A random rich person (the yacht\u2019s owner, aka, your boss) is now in control of your time, how much you sleep, your general whereabouts, and pretty much everything else that\u2019s going on in your life. Your best friend\u2019s wedding? Christmas with your family? Chances are you won\u2019t be able to make it to either one. Even if there\u2019s nothing scheduled to happen at the time you want to be away, you can be guaranteed that a last minute charter or broker\u2019s viewing will arise and ruin your plans spectacularly.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Say goodbye to privacy and alone time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll be sharing everything <\/em>and \u2018alone\u2019 time will be a thing of the past. What\u2019s more, you\u2019re stuck on a boat with the same people all <\/em>the time. Most of them are probably people you wouldn\u2019t choose to hang out with and some will have habits that are downright disturbing. When you\u2019re tired, grumpy, and fed-up with having to step over your roomie\u2019s dirty knickers, you\u2019ll start to sweat the small stuff and, occasionally, will feel the urge to strangle somebody. However, you won\u2019t be able to \u2018walk it off\u2019 or talk to your mates about it over a beer in the pub.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pro tip:<\/strong> Although onboard politics are a fact of yachtie-life, don\u2019t join the drama club. Listen and offer advice when appropriate, but avoid getting sucked into someone else\u2019s saga and\/or spreading gossip. Oh, and a note on the latter: wherever you are on a yacht, there will always be someone that can overhear your conversation, no matter how far away from the others you think you may be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s no escaping the industry\u2019s \u2018golden handcuffs\u2019<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Those fat stacks I mentioned as one of the pros? Well, the downside is that it\u2019s easy to become dependent on the income the industry can offer. In fact, many yachties end up feeling trapped within a lifestyle that they themselves have subconsciously created. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pro tip:<\/strong> Think about the future before you make investments that could \u2018imprison\u2019 you. If you don’t, you may one day find that you can\u2019t afford to leave a job that you stopped enjoying a while ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still up for this? Here\u2019s how to go about it:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: <\/strong>Complete an STCW<\/a> Basic Training Course. This is required if you dream of being able to work on a commercially registered yacht. Aside from classroom days, this five-day course includes a lot of fun stuff, such as clambering into life rafts and putting out fires the size of a house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: <\/strong>Get ready to yachtifie your CV<\/a> (make sure to mention hospitality work or other relevant experience such as massage or beautician skills) and head to a super yacht hub such as Palma de Mallorca, Antibes, or Ft. Lauderdale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3:<\/strong> Finally, you\u2019ll need to sign up with one of the yacht crew agencies<\/a> and keep checking social media pages such as Palma Yacht Crew<\/a>; the latter posts jobs and day work positions regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A last word of advice:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Yacht sailing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Before you start booking flights and selling your furniture, I have one more piece of advice to share. One of the reasons I kept returning to work on boats is that I couldn’t seem to adjust to a \u2018normal\u2019 life ashore. Whenever I\u2019d leave a job, I\u2019d get itchy feet and crave adventure and the only way I knew how to get that (with a good salary) was in yachting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, if you still find yourself down yachting\u2019s rabbit hole five or ten years from now, don\u2019t say I didn\u2019t warn y\u2019all! But hey, if that rabbit hole includes ticking off a huge chunk of your travel bucket list and making lifelong friends, you’ll have zero regrets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
