For Yacht Management Offices and Agencies

Qualified Yacht Captains & Crew
— Vetted for 55’ to 80’ Luxury Yachts —

Upstream Compliant

​If you’re a yacht management office or agency and
You need a qualified Captain, Chef, or Crew Member NOW,
We can Help.

We specialise in the 55’– 80’ “Luxury Yacht” segment—where owners expect superyacht-level service, but crews operate short-handed and must be technically capable, compliant, and discreet.
We mostly select candidates on over-qualifications

Vetted Profiles — References & Certifications Checked

Every profile we propose is carefully screened for:

  • Professional qualifications (license level, endorsements)

  • STCW compliance and relevant certificates

  • Medical validity (as applicable)

  • Reference checks and track record verification

  • Role fit for private and/or charter operations
     

We don’t send CVs in bulk. We send candidates you can confidently present to your client.

Crew Selected for the 55’– 80’ Market
— and Suitable Upstream —

Captains and crew in this segment are often selected based on over-qualification because the operational reality demands it:

  • Small teams (typically 2–4 crew) with high service expectations

  • High owner standards and privacy requirements

  • Increasing technical complexity (hybrid/electric systems, advanced onboard systems)

Because of this, many of our candidates are also suitable for:

  • Yachts over 80'

  • Superyacht entry / step-up roles (for proven candidates ready for the next stage)

Quality Over Quantity
Our listings are not about Quantity — they are about Quality.

Our network is built through years of training and operational involvement in yachting.
We talk the language of the candidates

Many candidates have completed full professional training - often with us during our past RYA Training Programs - and progressed into larger yacht environments.

Our network also includes high-calibre culinary talent, including chefs with strong superyacht track records.

Typical Roles We Support

  • Captains / Masters (private & charter)

  • Relief / Seasonal Captains

  • Chefs (yacht & charter-ready)

  • Deck / Stew / Dual-role crew for short-handed operations

Send Your Requirement — We’ll Respond Quickly

Share the role, dates, location, yacht type, and operational profile (private/charter). We’ll come back with:

  • A short clarification call (if needed)

  • A curated shortlist of suitable candidates

  • Supporting notes on compliance and fit

Submit your enquiry and we’ll get back to you ASAP.
