Love the vlog idea! I am actually joining the Superyacht industry in end December largely due to your videos, so I’m very happy to see more of that which you are passionate about! Have a great trip!
Hi Matthew, it would have been great to hear a few details while still respecting confidentiality, like your new position, what that entails, and the size of yacht! Let us know in a future video. Congratulations too!
Matthew, I am very excited that you received an opportunity to advance your career! Next I will watch today’s video that tells us what you will be doing, at least I hope so. I really feel sad for Adriana because she has to go back to living without you in the house with her, but I am sure that she understands that your long term goals are extremely important to your health and fulfillment.
hey Matthew, very glad you are continuing with the videos, but most important is that you are going back to a boat! Looking forward to see your next videos ! best regards
Follow the process Matthew! You know better than anyone else whats the best option for you! And we support your decision! Waiting for the new videos to come, to let us know more about the new role! Wish the best!!
All the best for the temporary contract Matthew, yes Christmas etc can be a problem for yacht crew, as with other seafarers and military personnel. All arranged to have Christmas early or late when it was not possible to have it at the proper time. Look forward to whatever you are able to give us, before, during and after the 3 month contract.
Thanks Vince. I'm happy to have you along for the journey. Adriana and I have already made plans for our "early" Christmas 😊. Details to follow in another video this evening.
You raised some issues here that are common to many seafarers. The challenges with working on short term contracts as you point out can put a strain on relationships and regrettably I saw some fail. It is really for the most part a single persons game. Of course if you can get on regular rotations it does make it easier. Very much looking forward to hearing from you on the channel once you get aboard and settled in. Hope you make the connections you need to move forward with your future plans.
As always, great to from you. We never truly know where life brings us, we only have choice to which, if we can choose we choose. I do have a question. How do you deal with work or sleep schedules, when crossing time zones?
Thanks Frank. Great question. If flying across time zones to join a yacht, it's usually a case of immediately working on the time zone that you've arrived in. In my experience, there is little provision for crew members to rest until they get used to the new time zone. In terms of sailing across time zones such as when crossing the Atlantic Ocean, the yacht's time is normally adjusted incrementally by 1 hour at a rate proportionate to the duration of the voyage. For example, if the voyage were estimated to take 10 days and the time difference between the origin port and destination was 5 hours, the yacht's time would be adjusted by 1 hour every 2 days. In this way, the yacht and its crew are operating on the correct time zone by the time they arrive at the destination port.
Mat...Yeah.....Congratulations! What position are you going on as? I quit yachting because of what turned out to be my wife. But I was going to take a contract to work on a 65M Lurssen and then I found out she was pregnant. The first of 4 kids. 22 years of marriage....should have ended it at 10 though. But sometimes I wish I could have stayed in yachting. I wanted to go for my 200GT Captains. Changed my life and went to a school to learn security and wound up doing security on yachts. Then that ended due to an incident near Somalia. Went into medical, mainly surgery. You are living the dream for us.
Thanks @clifbradley. I always look forward to reading your comments. They give me an insight into what sounds like a very interesting and exciting life that you've lived!
Okay, but what's the position and why is it worth changing your plans for? I'm not asking for confidential details about the yacht or anything, but it would be great to learn about the nature of the job.
@@WorkonaSuperyacht First of all, I haven't met every doctor in London or in Poland. There for my opinion is not objective. In Poland it takes at least two days to do national health certificate. Doctor takes results seriously, depending on your age, draws attention to the dangers of working at sea, and in general you have a feeling to end up in place where doctors care about you. My doc in particular(with has office in Gdynia Sea Tower) is Internal medicine specialist, Marine and tropical medicine specialist - so that in case of emergency onboard I can call her at any time and she will helping me.
@NosumHseebnrido Thanks for the additional information. It's a big help to others in the community. In my experience, some doctors are more thorough than others. I'm fortunate to have never had any health complications, so they normally get through it pretty quickly with me. For someone with a worse medical history, they would probably take a lot more time.
It was only after reading the comments that I realised I had forgotten to mention anything about the yacht 🤦♂️. More details to follow in a video this evening.

Hi, I made ENG1 in London 5-6 years ago, and I have to say I prefer Polish version.
Thank you for sharing your experience on this. What was it about the Polish medical that you preferred?
