Crew Training - Investment in yourself

Gone are the days when you could simply jump on a yacht and sail around the world learning as you go along. Particularly when that yacht is worth tens of millions and the people it carries are multi billionaires, pop stars, businessmen, politician, formula one teams, sports stars and the like.

With an investment like that to care for, these luxury yacht management companies look for people who are prepared to invest a little in themselves, people who want to go one step further and be a cut above the rest.

However with the phenomenal shortage of qualified crew within the superyacht industry it is still a 'candidates market'. You will find, with a little of the right investment in yourself, your stake will be massively repaid. It will take, on average, around two weeks to earn the cost of your STCW course.
