I love the attention to detail as it is important to get it right. Just a question as I have seen a 3 stage process where you apply oil at the end to maintain the clean teak. Why didn’t you use oil at the end? Or when would you use it?

im a deckhand on large cargo ship bulk container and car carrier im planning to switch to a yatch. what do you think?

The company he’s going on about is called flying fish which is worrying a bit for me

I’m going on a course in may with a company I’m not sure if it’s worth it I will get my stcw power boat level 1 and 2 and some other bits The company is called flying fish out of the Isle of Wight is it worth it

Can I climb the ranks to become a skipper even as a second or third engineer? Or do I need to start over as a deck hand?

Man My father, Hassan Lammouki, is a 56-year-old Moroccan who has devoted 34 years of his life to the sea as a ship captain and premier officier. He started his career at 22 and has worked across various types of ship technologies and operating systems, including dredging ships and fishing vessels for sardines, shrimp, and white meat fish. His expertise spans a wide range of vessel types and maritime systems, showcasing his adaptability and knowledge in this field. He has worked with two Spanish companies and eight Moroccan ones, including a notable shrimp fishing company owned by Aziz Akhannouch. My father has also worked in Spain on more than three occasions, spending 4-6 months there each time, gaining international experience and refining his skills. He holds a "Livret de Pilotage de Navire", a detailed record that includes all the companies he’s worked with and the duration of his contracts. It reflects his extensive career and professionalism. Now, he’s looking for new international opportunities in Europe, the USA, England, or Australia. Roles like yacht piloting, mini-boat driving, or other maritime positions would be ideal for him. I’m incredibly proud of his dedication, and I just want to help him continue doing what he loves on a global level. If anyone knows of opportunities or has advice, please reach out. Your help would mean so much to us and man a legend like him with all that experience and cruising in the Atlantic ocean and Mediterranean and he talk Spanish and french and also English

Heyy matthew I have been watching your videos from last one and half year I was wondering if an Indian work on Yacht or not??? I am looking forward to take basic stcw courses, so your answer would be very helpful to me.

I have to disagree. In the lower, like upto 200gt. The cost depend a lot were you do it, like a STCW basic cost 600€, you can even get it from the Spanish government for free. GOC Radio 1200€, not 1900€. What really bothers me is that you need to go through the same filter as everybody, so if you are naturally a seaman, it's a loos of time. You also have to mention, my opinion, after YM or Ocean you can get commercialy endorsed, so you can actually work, so investing again in yourself when you are off the boat is a bit less painfull. Back in time all those radar, sling course whatever you had to.learn them onboard, a captain sifned and you are good, while you eere earning days at sea, money plus the "free course", my opnion only, was better. ENG in Spain is free to obatin for actual "people of the sea" like they say here. You video is goodnto get a sneak preview, i think i can call it. I recomend UKSA for training. Have a nice day Capt Mike, Master 3000.

Good day, thank you very much for your training videos! I would like to ask, were I can buy the “sheep” the lamb wool pad you put on the extension pole. Best regards

Thank you so much for this excellent video. The information is incredibly helpful. I am a US citizen, i am in my 20's and i speak 3 languges. I am based in Fort Lauderdale and i am looking to start a career in the yachting industry. I will stay tuned to your channel and i will even recommend it to others as they start their yachting journey.

I’m 18 from Hawaii been working on a catamaran for 2 years any advice on getting into the yachting industry?

Good day sir I have experience on pleasure yacht 78 meter deckhand can I work with you

Boo effin hoo. How will I ever sleep on my pile of money?

Am watching to know how to apply for a job as a massage therapist

Glad you got a video with a wind noise killer

Is it smart to use ur earning to get propertys to rent out. Im 18 i want to work as deckhand next year and maybe year after that. Is that smart sir

Can A filipino become a captain on a yacht?does yacht owner has prefered nationalities to command their yacht?

How to get deckhand job crew for Indian

What is the average salary’s?

Hi send me if you any link can I apply I have worked experience 8years on yatch

Nice video. Matthew what do you think if I am a carpenter on a cruise ship. I am working for 3 years. Can i hope to get a job as a carpenter on yacths? Also, what is the year limit for entering to yacht industry as carpenter? Thanks man u do a nice job.

What do you think about going to a maritime college? 4 years and you will be out with a 3rd mate USCG license of unlimited tonnage? If get my license in that I know I can work in cargo ships but my question is am I eligible to work in supper yachts?

Curious to know why you chose a banana for a snack while looking for a job on a boat.

Thank you for the video! If it is possible, can you prepare a video about gelcoat repair, painting and fairing?

awesome video. really insightful.

Thank you!

Alot cheaper than a university degree, and you'll definitely get a much higher starting salary (doing something you presumably like)

Thank you

I don’t know anything about yachts or foreign ships and licenses, but I find 60 months to be truly unbelievable. I’m the US we have to have sea time and even working 180 days a year on a commercial ship that almost never stops it takes many many years to get the 1080 days underway to upgrade from an AB to a 3rd mates license. Judging by the fact that at least the yachts I see are moored considerably more then they are underway, it seem like it would basically be impossible to accumulate the sea time working on one?

Great video! I wonder why did u wrap 2 rounds before figure 8 at 8:40?

Nice content! Is it possible to request more videos about topics which I'd like to learn?

@workonaSuperyacht I have one question am 23 years old and I finish the college of merchant ship more than 500 tons and I have already the 3 officer degree from the cyprus flag ,and am thinking to continue in yachts , if I will go I will be as OOW ?

I came across your channel a couple of years ago, having landed myself a season of work on a yacht, both as crew and as the on-board wildlife guide (I have a background in zoology and ecology, specialising in marine mammals). I was feeling like I needed a change, as I had just completed my undergraduate study. Your videos gave me so much insight into what was going to be required of me onboard, and I carried that knowledge forward. I completed the season, and loved it, but I chose to go back to university rather than continue immediately in the industry, to complete a masters degree, as I thought I could always go back to yachting, but I might not always feel like I could go and study more, and I knew that working at sea was going to be a part of me now moving forward. Since, I have taken ad-hoc opportunities to crew on yachts for short periods as and when they come up, and have taken opportunities to work onboard research vessels also, in line with my studies, and have completed yacht-work related qualifications in my spare time, and I am now doing a PhD. My end goal, and I can say that if it weren't for these videos I might have never ended up in this position, is to complete my PhD programme and then transition to setting up my own cruise company, based where I have experience of sailing, and sharing the natural world with guests. Thanks Matthew, your videos have been excellent for me 👍 To clarify, I can attest that it was a very different yacht to the one pictured that I worked on, and it was a seasonal position that was advertised - had it not been, there was very little chance that I would have been taken on. Both I and the employer were aware of the situation and the terms of me taking the position though!😅

I'll send this to my officer friends who want to become yachtie. Love the contents!

A good video to raise awareness. I want to add something: like you said it’s a well know fact, none of HOD wants to go to the circle process hiring-training-losing. What about the others people involved in the « well running yacht » management company/brokers/owners ? Everybody should be focus on the same line from each part of yachting industry. Most of a lot of yacht need a permanent crew onboard, a full time position, rotational position, sometimes some additional crew.

What a bore

why is crew turnover in yachting industry among junior crew a problem?

Well seems like i am screwed. No hospitality background, and no experience on the sea. I would have been down to do all the courses, even planning to go to Antibes. I dont know if its possible to enter the industry with those credentials Rip i guess Thanks for the video matthew

Probably one of the best videos you’ve done. Excellent presentation and content.

You are so right Matthew, the Industry needs to be 'professional' and rid itself of the 'Below Deck' image, yacht crew are there to work and not on a paid holiday. Long term articles such as that are destructive, what Captain, Chief Officer, Chief Stew is going to employ anyone that has been on that training after a negative experience with 'gap year' paid tourist, who thinks they are on a summer long party rather than being a professional mariner.
