Our client is looking for a solid, yacht-experienced Bosun to join their team on a 45m private motor yacht. Their last Bosun was promoted to Chief Officer and new crew member should be familiar with the position, hands on, and ready to gain new knowledge. Tender driving skills and at least some kind of license are a definite plus, but still not the requirement. The entire team has been together for years (longevity is a solid part of this program).

This is not a penny-pinching program! Expectations are high - and so is the budget.

Candidates must be even-keeled, easy-going in their attitude and a team player.  

To be considered, candidates should be local-ish to Fort Lauderdale.

They can consider any nationality, but US and Green Card candidates will be included in the benefits and perks of the American company - and these are significant.  

Tattoos are not an issue - as long as they are not on face/neck - this is still yachting!

The program is currently local (South Florida - Bahamas) and they are getting ready for a trip up to Bermuda and into Maine until the end of summer (yes, an escape from this heat)! Then back down to Lauderdale for a routine maintenance period, and likely back to the Florida / Bahamas winter.

That’s them…who are you? You are either a solidly experienced Deckhand who is very familiar with Deck operations, you enjoy the hands on and are ready to take that next step in your career…or you are a solid Bosun already looking for your next experience on your way to First Officer (that is what happened with the last guy).

This is a shared cabin – with a guy, so please note they are only able to consider men for the position.

Start Date: about June 3 (or earlier)

Requirements:

Recent solid longevity

Verifiable references

12+ months yacht experience

STCW Basic Training
