To put it simply working on a yacht can offer you a very good lifestyle indeed!

A superyacht (also known as a megayacht or a luxury yacht or even a giga yacht for those over 300 feet) can be found on any ocean, on any sea in the world. Superyachts can be motor or sail and range from 24m up to mini cruiseships.

Guest sizes vary and essentially a crew member is taken on board to care for the guests and the boat. The work can be very demanding but that said there are times when you will have nothing to do but laze around on sunny decks, cruising turquoise seas... earning lots of money.
