ABOUT THE JOB

You'll operate and manage a 64' sailing catamaran, taking care of all related functions including maintenance and keeping the vessel in pristine condition.
Leading and supervising the sailing crew during daily excursions will be part of your day-to-day responsibilities.

Creating excellent guest experiences through a customer-focused mindset is at the heart of what you'll do.
Daily, monthly, and yearly vessel checks will be your responsibility, along with completing all associated paperwork including maintenance logs, accident reports, and daily reports.
Ensuring the safety, readiness, and proper maintenance of the vessel whilst maintaining compliance with our Safety Management System (SMS) and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) is essential
