CREW TRAINING
It is vital that your yacht is staffed by experienced and qualified crew to guarantee it is run safely and efficiently. Our dedicated team will make sure that crew members with the correct qualifications are hired and that they attend regular training throughout their career to keep their certifications up to date, ensuring your yacht is safely manned at all times. As yachts continue to grow in size, sometimes reaching the scale of boutique-style cruise liners, international maritime law now requires professionals across the industry to obtain more certifications, making ongoing investment in training essential.
QUALIFICATIONS
All crew working on board yachts must comply with the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watch keeping for Seafarers (STCW) and as a minimum hold a current Basic Safety Training certificate to ensure that they are aware of the dangers of working on board a yacht and how to respond in an emergency.
Depending on the crew member’s position on board there are numerous other qualifications that may be needed or desired, from Master licences for Captains to drive the yachts to diving qualifications for deck crew or interior service and wine course certifications for interior crew. Our team is always on hand to advise on the numerous options available.
