Are There Jobs on Super Yachts For Couples?

• Are There Jobs on Super Yachts For Coupl...

There are relationships that start whilst working on board superyachts, however you may already be in one and wondering whether it is possible for both of you to get a job on the same yacht.

The quick answer is – yes, it is possible for couples to get a yacht crew jobs together, however there are different challenges you may face.

Whilst we can’t be the voice for all superyachts, from our experience of training deckhands and stewardesses , the ones who are in a relationship have gone on to be successful as a couple and work together on yachts.

Initially, you may find very polar opinions from captains and recruitment agencies with regards to working as a couple on a yacht.

Some view people in relationships as being more reliable and settled. This in turn may mean you are less likely to party and/or go astray.

You are probably also willing to go the extra mile to help each other out when work gets tough on board the yacht. This is especially useful on small boats where the team always need to be looking out for one another.

However, every couple in the world will have an argument at some point, which may disrupt and disturb the harmony on board the ship.

Cabin arrangements can be tricky on bigger boats for couples, but smaller boats will be more accommodating, but the salaries are normally slightly lower.

This may sound obvious, but you must also remember to try to join in…some couples spend a lot of time with each other and forget to integrate themselves into the team.

This can be a concern for the captain who wouldn’t want a disjointed workforce.

There will be some jobs you apply for where the captain feels strongly about not having a couple on board, therefore you will just have to accept that boat is not for you and move on.

How to get a job on a yacht as a couple

There will be a few ‘couple friendly’ jobs, but the most common and easiest route to getting work as a couple on a yacht is to apply as an individual.

There will be far more opportunities and this way offers the path of least resistance to get your foot through the door and establish a good working relationship with the boat.

Then when another position becomes available, you will be in a great position to put your partner forward as a candidate.

If you start off working hard and get along with the crew, they will trust your recommendation and chances are you will be working as a couple in no time.  

When applying for roles, keep your yachting CV ’s separate. Having your CV separate will look more professional and remember you are an individual with your own experiences and strengths.

Once you get through the initial screening phase, now is the perfect time to bring up you are in a relationship and your goal is to work together.

The boat will want to know that you have a strong relationship and if you have worked together before. It would be good to be armed with answers and to have a strong reference that can back this up.

So, you may have to prepare yourselves to be working separately for a while but keep focused on that goal of working together.

There is superyacht work out there for couples, so with the right attitude and perseverance, you will be able to find work and start a new exciting career together.

5 Tips On Getting A Couple’s Job In Yachting

Listen now- check out the seaworthy stew podcast here.

Are you wondering about couple’s positions in yachting and if there’s any chance of working together?  In this episode, I share 5 tips for the lovebirds wanting to start a career working on superyachts with their partner.

You may have been planning to do this solo and coincidentally meet the man of your dreams 3 months prior and they decide to be a part of the adventure, it happens! Or maybe it’s been a #couplegoal for you two for a while now!  

Either way it’s possible, you will both just need the right attitude and perseverance, to find work together in the yachting industry

  So I have 5 Tips for getting your first couple’s job onboard…

• If you don’t have any yachting experience apply for jobs individually at first – Think of this as a stepping stone to the couples job. There is a much better chance of you getting a foot in the door if you both get a job separately in the beginning. The industry is competitive and couples positions are in high demand! Most likely if you have no experience onboard and have not been in a relationship for over a year the chance of getting your first job on a yacht will be fairly slim. This stepping stone is what a lot of couples I know had to do in the beginning to work together.  Something important to remember is that you need to be prepared front the beginning to make compromises. From your ideal positions onboard to crew cabin arrangements.  You may get a job together but not share a cabin straight away, this is because cabin arrangements are carefully thought out to accommodate each crew member  and their position onboard.
• Once you have developed a good working relationship on your first boat you can try and put your partner forward as a candidate if a position becomes available. Job turnover is higher than a usual job so you can expect positions to become available after most seasons or at least once a year. It would be good to also make sure not everyone knows everything about you and your partners relationships. It may not increase your chances of getting a job together if the whole crew knows when you have a fight with your partner or you’re upset because of something that was said.  From a head of departments point of view if you hear the relationship could be the slightest bit unsteady it is unlikely we will want to bring your partner onboard. The less drama onboard the better!
• Review your Yachting CV – When applying for your first superyacht job, keep your yachting CV’s separate. Having your CV separate will look more professional and remember you are an individual with your own experiences and strengths. Once you have some experience onboard and are looking to stake the next step then you will need to have Cvs which mirror each other. Both CVs will have the same layout/formatting/style and correct length of time you have been in the relationship for.
• The boat will want to know that you have a strong relationship and if you have worked together before. It would be good to be armed with answers and to have a strong reference that can back this up. So think about this before you start applying toegtehr, you need to be convincing. 
• When you have experience in yachting you should be applying for every job not just couples jobs. You never know what opportunities the boat may havewhen they look at your CV. If they like you as a candidate and you say you are looking for a couples position, better to be honest and put it out there to see if you have any luck!

So there is the 5 tips if youre thinking about couples jobs – Apply separately at first, put your partner forward on a boat you have a great working relationship with, get matching CVS, have a strong reference and apply for every job! When you are looking for a couple position it’s important to make sure you both know the goal, to get a job on the same boat. If you understand you may be working separately for a while but keep focused on that goal of working together it will make more sense when times get a little tough when you’re without them. 

Well I hope that’s helped some of you love birds out there! I will have to do a podcast episode on relationships onboard as that’s a whole other ball game you’re bound to come across at some point!

Yacht Crew: Can Couples Get Jobs on Superyachts?

Many jobseekers looking to join the industry ask ‘Can couples get jobs on superyachts?’

The answer is yes, but often a different approach is required.

When looking to gain your first job on a superyacht, take a long look at your CV, as this is the key to your success.

Superyacht CVs do differ slightly from land-based CVs as they require a photo of you, just you; not you and your partner .  Please remember it is not a fashion shoot. This picture could be viewed by the captain, owner or any number of heads of departments- both male and female.  First impressions are priceless! As a couple searching for jobs on superyachts, please do not be tempted to join your CVs together. This is for 2 reasons; firstly, it does not look professional and secondly, it is best to sell your individual strengths and to keep your options open just in case…

How To Get a Job on a Yacht as a Couple

Is it easy to find a couples position?

How long does it usually take to get a position together?

Are there many couple-friendly boats in the industry?

Can crew couples actually work together?

These are some of the questions we’ve been getting lately from couples looking to work together and with the Mediterranean season fast approaching, we are quite certain that many couples are already on the lookout for their new role together onboard.

There really is no right or wrong way or hard and fast rule when it comes to working together. Sometimes it is as simple as being in the right place at the right time. Either way, it takes the right attitude and perseverance to find work together in the yachting industry.

Sure, there will be a few ‘couple friendly’ jobs, but the most common and possibly the easiest route to getting work as a couple is to apply as an individual. This will provide far more opportunities and offers the path of least resistance to get your foot in the door and establish a good relationship with the boat, allowing you to be in a better position to put your partner forward when the opportunity arises.

Keep in mind that you are both individuals with your own experiences and strengths so keeping your CVs separate is key. This will show professionalism and that you are able to separate your personal relationship from your career.

Another option is to be completely honest and look for jobs purely as a couple and not consider anything else. Be straightforward about your goal during interviews. This approach will probably take longer but you may be happier. It may be a good idea to give yourselves a timeframe and then assess your plans if it takes longer than your set time frame.

Once you both have a season or two of experience under your belt, getting work together should be much easier. You may need to look on it as a short term sacrifice for the longer term gain.

Does it work for everyone?

Just like with everything else, working together as a couple has its pros and cons. It’s best to remember that even though working together seems like the ideal situation, it isn’t always the best option. Being onboard can sometimes get lonely and one of the best things about working together is that you will always have that someone to talk to after a busy day.

So is working together for you?

Every couple is different just as every boat is different. The bottom line is that there are great amount of things to consider when deciding to pursue a career together on board. It’s not easy an journey, not for everyone anyway. However, if you and your partner are persistent and determined, you will find the perfect positions that suit you both.

How Easy Is It Finding Yacht Crew Jobs As A Couple?

Finding positions on the same yaacht is a common inquiry. Are you wondering about the feasibility of working together, how long it takes to secure your jobs, how common couple-friendly opportunities are? While there’s no fixed rule, Wilsonhalligan Recruitment is here to discuss working together as a couple in yachting. Remember – persist and stay positive!

What’s Best? Applying Individually Or Together?

For those seeking employment as a couple on a yacht, one approach is to apply individually. While there are a few ‘couple-friendly’ positions around, presenting yourselves as individuals opens up more opportunities and helps you establish a favourable relationship with the boat. This enhances the chances of advocating for your partner when the right opportunity arises.

Keep separate CVs – this showcases your professionalism and demonstrates the ability to separate personal matters from your career.

Alternatively, couples can always be upfront about their goal of working together. There’s nothing stopping in your way from pursuing positions for both of you. While this approach may take more time, it aligns with your personal preferences. Be prepared to develop a strategy to cope with a potentially longer timeframe… Job hunting might mean reassessing plans if the process takes longer than expected.

Build Experience Independently

Building individual experience over a season or two can significantly improve your chances of securing positions together. View it as a short-term sacrifice for long-term gains.

Pros & Cons

While working together may provide companionship on board and a reliable confidant after busy days, it’s essential to acknowledge potential challenges. Loneliness may still be a factor, and the perceived ideal situation may not always be the best option.

Ultimately, working together as a couple in yachting is a decision only you can make. It depends on various factors. Each couple is unique, and every boat has different dynamics so it isn’t for everyone!

Nevertheless, with determination, couples can find positions that align with their preferences and needs in the yachting industry.

Lucas Urruty Officer of the Watch (OOW) "I started yachting 7 years ago, from not knowing the industry at all to getting my first OOW position last year. I remember in the first stages of my training I had nobody to guide me on how or in what order or priority to do my modules. I followed the yacht route, and up until now I have always gone back to Yotspot in my career to see what requirements, sea time and courses I need and in what order as a reference. I have booked at least 4 of my modules through Yotspot and even got my current job thanks to the site.

Are couples’ roles on the rise in yachting? 1 August 2023

couples roles crew couples Superyacht Crew yacht crew

In a recent social media poll, 62% of crew said that their yacht was couples-friendly and while we have certainly seen a rise in people looking for couples’ roles, they remain rare.

Just 5% of yacht jobs are actively seeking couples on average, and only a further 5% would be open to hiring a couple if the candidates were right and the timing aligned.

What respondents of this poll probably meant, however, is that their yacht is accepting of developing relationships onboard.

With this in mind, let’s take a look at some of the key characteristics of a couples role in yachting, when and where they might be available and how to nab yourself one if you are half of a loving pair…

Joining a yacht together

Very occasionally a superyacht will be looking for a solid crew couple, and this is most probably down to cabin arrangements. This is likely to be a smaller-sized yacht, and for this reason, a wider skillset would be hugely beneficial in a couple as roles may be cross-department. Think stew/chef or deck/engineer, for example.

Therefore, if you are already in a couple and looking for your next gig together, you might need to downsize.  

Joining a yacht separately

A more common opportunity will be for you and your partner to continue your job search individually, but enquire whether the yacht is open to having couples onboard. This way, you could put your other half forward when a role arises in their department.

This will not necessarily mean you’ll get to stay in the same cabin, but it could be an advantage for the yacht too.

The caveat here, and what we often find, is one of you is usually better at your job than the other. You’ll first need to work you’re a**e off to impress the yacht enough to even consider your other half and then hope that they don’t drag you down, or vice versa.

Falling head over heels onboard

Although not everyone joins a yacht with the intention of starting a relationship, being in such close quarters with people, and being away from home for long periods, will undoubtedly lead to romance for some.

Few yachts have very strict rules prohibiting relationships onboard – or more specifically, casual ones. This does appear to have phased out over the years, but in most cases, you’ll need to disclose relationships to your Captain or HOD.

Strength in numbers

Crews can be clicky at the best of times, so imagine what tension can be caused when a couple fights or breaks up when working on the same boat. And this is, understandably, one of the biggest turn-offs for yachts.

If you’re actively seeking a couples’ role, then you need to prove that you are solid – not only as an experienced crew member, but also as a pair. Longevity in your relationship will be as important as the longevity on your CV.

If you’ve been together for 12 months but working on different yachts, with different leave patterns, then stolen weekends here and there will be more like having a six-week relationship.

Downsides of couples’ roles for a yacht

Cabin arrangements and great crew candidates aside, taking on a couple can be seen as riskier for yacht.

Firstly, a toxic couple can have a terrible impact on the overall atmosphere onboard. Even if you’re totally loved up, you might isolate yourself from the rest of the crew in favour of spending time alone together when you can.

If one resigns, then it’s also likely that the other will follow, meaning there is a higher rate of attrition among couples in yachting.

Finally, if both of you are at a senior or HOD level, then you could be seen to yield too much power onboard.

Tips for getting a Couples Job

by theyachtstew

We worked on separate boats when Ben & I first met, doing completely different itineraries. It ended up that we only saw each other 11 times during our first six months of dating. And while I wouldn’t change anything about our relationship or how we got to where we are today, I did come to realise just how hard long-distance is! After our first season of long-distance, we both quit our jobs, flew to the UK & then Canada to meet each other’s families & started to look for a job together. In the past five years, we have ALWAYS worked on the same yacht & have been hired as a couple.

Don’t get me wrong, though, it hasn’t always been easy looking for a position together & I’m sure you’re not surprised to hear that our first job as a couple was by far the hardest to find! We started looking before we had been together for a year (which agents said was not long enough) & struggled to find a yacht that took us seriously.

With the Med season fast approaching, I have no doubt there will be many lovebirds looking for a couple’s position, so here are a few of my tips that have worked for us! *As always, these are 100% my opinions, so take what you will from it!

P.S. I am well aware that my EPs are upside down! They were swapped as soon as this photo was taken! 

Matching CV’s When I print out couples CV’s & they look identical in terms of formatting, font & layout, it is visually a lot easier when presenting them to the Captain. It shows you have taken the time to work together on your CV’s, you understand the need to come across as a uniformed front & it looks professional.

Length of Relationship On my CV it says… Team Position: Ben Hulbert (together six years) One of the first questions I ask couples is how long they have been together & being as open & honest in your CV WILL help! Now that we are you are married, I will tweak it to this: Team Position: Ben Hulbert (together six years & married) The longer the length of time, the more stability you offer to a crew  & the higher your chance of being put closer towards the top of the pile.

Be prepared for compromise. One yacht we joined was a significant compromise for Ben. He had already been in the industry for two years and had an additional five years as a qualified boat builder in the UK – so it is needless to say, he was ready to step up to Bosun on a 50m. Unfortunately, the yacht only had 2nd stew (with no 3rd onboard, so after three years on yachts, I stepped into a junior role) and a Deckhand Role. We probably wouldn’t have applied for it as we were just about to resign after a hectic year & wanted a month off. It was, however, THE boat. The one we had spoken about on our first dates, with its dreamy West Coast Itinerary & incredible reputation for fantastic Owners. So we applied & thankfully got the position and ended up staying for three years. I moved to Chief Stew while ben moved to Bosun. None of that would have been possible if we weren’t willing to compromise and step down.

Another compromise we made was concerning cabin arrangements. On our most recent yacht, if we accepted the job together, we were told we would not be able to share a cabin. You guys, this was TOUGH, especially on a guest trip! I thought going into it that it would be easy peasy; what I didn’t realise was how much we relied on the privacy of our cabin to chat, confide in each other and hang out. We ended up meeting outside the crew door after my shift every night to say hi & catch up on the day. Luckily, our Captain was able to make arrangements for us to share a cabin on the Tank Deck not too long after the first guest trip & it made a world of difference having a place to call ours.

Apply to EVERY job Our most recent yacht only posted the Bosun position, not Chief Stew. So Ben applied, sent across both of our CV’s and then we waited. Finally, two weeks later, I received a call from Chief Stew & Captain while Ben was on the phone with the Chief Officer. Yes, it can be a bit annoying being on the hiring side, going through loads of emails from Stews hoping a deck position is also available, but we ALL do it & it’s sometimes the key to getting a job together.

Be Patient &  Resilient Ben has tattoos…15 of them! So you better believe that didn’t help us in our search. There were times when we discussed whether we should work apart until a position came up. I am SO happy we didn’t go ahead with that. Yes, we lost out on 14 different jobs in 3 months because of tattoos, but we also didn’t join separate boats to quit then as soon as a couple of jobs came up. We both worked extremely hard to update our agency profiles DAILY, went to every single networking event, the day worked, reached out to old colleagues & stayed in crew houses with other experienced crew. We made it our full-time job to FIND a job & refused to believe that we couldn’t be hired as a couple. P.S. Ben also went to Sephora, so his visible tattoos were no more… and as soon as he did that, we were offered a job the next day that didn’t care about visible tattoos. But it shows that we took the feedback we got from boats & made sure to fix any reoccurring issues.

Tips from other couples currently working together:

@Aliceroberta_ “I’d say it’s important that you don’t just for you first couples job offer if you bother aren’t happy. Although in a relationship we made sacrifices and compromises for our other half, yachting is along harder working together is one doesn’t enjoy the role/boat.”

@brionylaura26 “My numero uno tip would be to be patient and kind with each other. Going from hardly seeing each other and potentially being in different time zones with different schedules to living and working under the same roof can be a little testing at first. But, you will soon find your groove and work through it to a happy, balanced togetherness!”

@carriefletch “Agree on when to shut off “work mode” and when to have “you and me” mode. Aka, if you need to vent about something frustrating, communicate “, ok, I need to get this out…” and then once you’re done, be done. Focus on still being with each other and growing together. Being in yachting is all-encompassing, made conscious and verbal choices together to only talk about work when you need to, don’t let it dominate your conversations.”

@tmcompain “Keep personal problems (and over the top love and romance) in your cabin. Especially if you are only the couple onboard, it’s not nice making your crew feel uncomfortable.”

@revelintravel “In my experience, the best way to secure a GOOD couple’s job is to network network network. Unfortunately, I have found that some agencies offer meagre salaries and pretend they are doing you a favour by hiring both of you. My response to those provided has always been a firm no. It’s essential to know your worth and chances re that kind of jobs wouldn’t work out tremendously anyway (any relation should start with mutual respect, including an adequate salary).

@tamlawaverly “To assure that boat that even though you are a team, you are still awesome individuals, I find references that can attest to this are the best!”

@aimee_brisk “My biggest piece of advice is to remember what the Spice Girls put so perfectly…if you want to be with my love, you’ve got to get with my friends! Cringey, but TRUE. Girl time is equally as important as spending time with your other half. Balance was always key for me. I also felt as a second stewardess it made the girls and I have a stronger connection the more time I spent with them.”

@kyliejdv “As a couple, you need to be an asset to the boat. By working together, you push each other to be better, and that is always going to be beneficial for the boat!”

Steve job's venus cost $120 million when it was built in 2012, by gerardo pons • published august 7, 2024 • updated on august 7, 2024 at 10:03 pm.

Video posted on social media shows the moment Steve Jobs' former superyacht Venus collided with another yacht in Naples, Italy.

The video, posted by Mexican telecom billionaire Ricardo Salinas Pliego on X, shows the moment the 257-foot-long Venus, now owned by Steve Jobs' former wife Laurene Powell Jobs, collided with Pliego's 344 foot-long Lady Moura on July 22.

"You guys won't believe this, but our yacht was hit while we were in Naples," Pliego wrote to his followers on X. "Apple founder Steve Jobs' yacht (now owned by his wife Laurene) hit us while we were anchored off Naples."

Pliego added his boat only suffered a few large scratches, which "will cost a lot to repair."

"I would like to know what the (Venus) captain and crew were doing that they didn't see a yacht the size of mine in front of them."
