Superyacht Day Work

A few tricks of the trade.

Day work is non-contractual temporary work on a yacht. Read through the advice and tips below to become an expert dayworker and give yourself the best possible chance of finding a job.

Tips for day work

Change of clothes:.

Dock walking often leads to on the spot daywork. It is, therefore, a good idea to carry around a backpack with a change of clothes that you do not mind getting ruined (a white t-shirt and less smart shorts, or an old boat t-shirt). Some boats will give you day working clothes to use, but do not count on it.

Be flexible:

Whilst you are 'green' and seeking experience you should be willing to daywork in any department. An aspiring deckhand should not be shy to clean an engine room or galley. It is all valuable experience and will help you network and get your foot in the door.

Be on time:

Always ensure you arrive 10-15 minutes before daywork commences. Stand on the dock and be ready to begin work. Do not ring the bell and hassle the crew, it is likely they are having coffee/eating breakfast and will see you on the cameras. NEVER BE LATE. It is a cardinal sin in yachting and you will likely be sent home.

It is your opportunity to impress - work hard, only take breaks or stop when you are told - don’t think its time to go home just because it is 1700. Always offer to stay late if required. It will not go unnoticed. Even if there is no potential job on this boat, the crew will recommend hard-workers to other friends and crew.

Be proactive:

Finish your tasks and clean up after yourself, clean your tools/products and return them to their home. If the crewmember giving you direction is busy and you do not have another task, find something to do or temporarily offer your assistance to someone else.

Do not use/look at your phone except during designated breaks. If you are expecting a call for an interview or about a job, explain this to the person in charge at the start of the day and they will understand and will allow you take a call if necessary.

Be eager to learn:

Try and learn as much as possible, ask questions and watch and learn. Do not be a know it all and pretend to know things you do not. The experienced crew are able to judge your experience and are more likely to help those willing to learn.

Pay for daywork:

Pay for daywork varies depending on the country you are in, your experience and the yacht you are working for. It usually ranges from 12-15 Dollars/Euros and hour. You may be paid at the end of each day or at the end of the week, if you need the money that day, speak to the person in charge, they will usually help you out.

Day working provides a fantastic networking opportunity, go for drinks/dinners with the crew. If you have developed a good relationship even join them on their day off. If they like you and approve of the way you work they are likely to recommend you to friends and crew on other boats.

As green crew, one way to land a permanent role as a yacht stew or deckhand is by building up your new yachting CV with day work. Learning how to get day work and taking advantage of those opportunities can be a stepping stone to starting your yachting career.

Day work gives you an introduction to what it’s like to work onboard, where you start to build your first yacht stew or deckhand skills, it also gives you income during the job hunting phase, allows you to network and creates a positive reputation for you in the industry.  

This article answers these questions: What is day work on yachts? Why do yachts need day workers? How to get day work for yacht crew? What do you get paid as a day worker? What to wear to day work onboard? Hot tips for green crew when day working.

What is daywork : It’s a non-contractual temporary work on a yacht. It’s when a yacht hires you temporarily, this can range from one day to a week to a month depending on the extra work needed to be done onboard. You could be hired to work in any area of the boat from the interior, exterior or engineering department.  Daywork is not only just for green crew it can also be for temp experienced crew. You will be doing any job needed to be done, from the routine monthly tasks the crew don’t get time to do or cleaning crew areas, detailing the cabins and interior preparing it for the next charter, helping with provisions or washdowns on the exterior of the vessel.

Why yachts need day workers : During busy periods boats need more help than usual to ‘turn the boat around’ in between charters. When yachts drop off one charter or boss trip within 24-48 hrs you need to prepare the boat up to superyacht standards for the next guests arrival. These are usually really long days for the crew and throw in having to also get new provisions onboard, a full laundry, detailing every cabin and resetting the interior there’s often not enough hours in the day to get it done just with the regular crew so this is when day workers are needed. You could also be called for daywork when the boat is on charter to assist with large events or to do the routine jobs the crew onboard don’t have time to do on charter.

How you get daywork : 1. Through Facebook pages such as Antibes yacht crew or Fort Lauderdale Yacht Crew Daywork, or yacht crew pages/WhatsApp groups

2. Crew houses will often be contacted by boats (especially Grapevine in Antibes, France as it is very reputable) this is why I highly recommend staying in crew houses as this is the added bonus which can ultimately lead to a job.

3. Walking the docks handing out your cv, this a first-hand way of offering your services to vessels nearby, a business card is also very handy to give out too. This way they can contact you directly. If you want to learn more about dock walking check out this article here.

What you will get paid: $150 USD or  €100- €130 cash per day (depending on experience). Most likely to include lunch, however, accommodation is not usually provided due to limited spaces onboard.

Tips for daywork: 1. If dock walking pack a spare pair of clothes it’s not unusual for the yacht to ask you to jump on board then and there to help out.  2. Be open to working in any department necessary to add to your yachting CV as it’s all valuable experience. It may not be a deck position you are wanting but if you can help out with a wash down it’s an experience you can say you’ve done.  3. Don’t be late. There are so many people eager to take this opportunity so act keen and arrive 10 mins early.  4. Do not use your mobile phone while day working (acceptable on breaks only), and do not take photos of you on the boat. 5. Always finish your task promptly, and clean up after you’re done. Ask the crew if they need a hand with anything if you are waiting for your next task. If you are not sure how to do something don’t just wing it, ask the person in charge and just explain you haven’t done this task before. 6. Network, if you develop a great relationship with the crew on that boat they will be likely to recommend you to other boats if they do not have a permanent position.

The Basics of Day Work on a Yacht and What You Can Expect

  • June 19, 2023

Working on a yacht is a unique and exciting career path open to anyone passionate about the sea and hospitality. Yachts are luxurious vessels typically used for leisure and travel, ranging in size from small sailing yachts to massive superyachts that accommodate dozens of guests. Yachts require a crew, and many positions are available for those looking to work on board.

Day work is a common arrangement in the yacht industry where yacht workers are hired temporarily to help with tasks that the onboard crew cannot handle because of other obligations. Day work can range from a day, a week, or even a month, depending on the contract, with jobs ranging from gathering food, doing laundry, or event assistance, which frequently happen on yachts. However, being a yacht dayworker goes beyond these details, so we will discuss them in this article.

The Basics of a Day Work Arrangement

Yacht workers in the day work arrangement are called dayworkers. Day workers are typically hired through crew houses or direct applications by going to docked yachts with their CVs on hand. The work can be seasonal, and it is essential to have a flexible schedule. Day workers are expected to have a positive attitude and a willingness to work in any department.

Additionally, dayworkers are expected to have relevant experience in the tasks they are hired for. For example, if a day worker is hired to do laundry, they should have experience in laundry operations and know how to handle different fabrics and detergents. If a day worker is hired to help with food preparation, they should have culinary skills and knowledge of food safety regulations.

The Challenges of Day Work

Being a day worker can be challenging in many ways. For starters, it can be tough to find consistent work, especially during the off-season. Day workers may have to spend a lot of time searching for jobs, which can be frustrating and financially stressful. With this in mind, lack of job security is also a problem because dayworkers are hired temporarily, and their contracts can be terminated anytime. This means they cannot rely on a stable income and may have to look for new jobs constantly.

While it doesn’t always happen, day workers may also face discrimination from permanent crew members. Some permanent crew members may view day workers as inferior and treat them poorly. This can create a hostile work environment and make it challenging for day workers to do their jobs effectively.

How Much Will You Get Paid?

Day workers can expect to make around USD 150 or €100- €130 cash daily, depending on experience. Accommodations are not usually included because yachts have limited space onboard. Day workers are expected to find their own accommodation, which can be challenging in popular yachting destinations.

Tips When Working as a Dayworker

To help you be an effective yacht dayworker, here are some tips:

  • Pack spare clothes: Day work can be messy, and having spare clothes on hand is essential. You never know when you might get covered in food or other substances, or you may work on the yacht for several days without going home.
  • Never be late: Punctuality is crucial in the yachting industry. If you are late, you could miss out on an opportunity or, worse, lose your job.
  • Be open to working in any department: Dayworkers are expected to be flexible and willing to work in any department. You may be asked to help with laundry, cooking, or deck work.
  • Always be ready to lend a hand: Dayworkers should always be prepared to help with any task. This could mean assisting with a guest’s luggage or helping to set up for an event.
  • Build your network – Networking is essential in the yachting industry. Dayworkers should take every opportunity to meet new people and build relationships with industry professionals.

Being a yacht dayworker is a laborious but fulfilling job that requires dedication, hard work, and a willingness to learn. Anyone who enters the trade can have a long and successful career if they approach it with the right attitude and mindset, especially since they will deal with people from all walks of life. With this, you will gain valuable experience and make connections that can lead to future opportunities in the yachting industry.

A superyacht captain shares 3 things people who want to charter a luxury vessel should know

  • Vacationing on a superyacht may sound like it's all Champagne and sunbathing.
  • But before boarding a luxury vessel, superyacht captain Kelly Gordon advises keeping certain things in mind.
  • Yachting is a summer pastime with risks and nuances for clients and crew.

Insider Today

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez soaking up the sun. Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian's wedding . Beyoncé's carefree jump into the ocean.

One of these images is likely what comes to mind when you hear the word "superyacht," a phrase generally used to describe a yacht over 80 feet in length.

While ultra-luxurious vessels are associated with all things carefree, tragic events such as the sinking of the Bayesian superyacht off the coast of Sicily on Monday is a reminder that yachting is a pastime with unique risks and nuances. It's unclear what the protocols were on the Bayesian.

For those keen on the idea of chartering a superyacht, captain Kelly Gordon, 42, told Business Insider there are a number of important factors to consider before hopping on board.

Gordon fell in love with yachting after she stepped aboard a yacht for the first time in her mid-20s.

Hellbent on reaching captain level, Gordon quickly worked her way up the chain of command. She's spent most of her time sailing the Bahamas and the Caribbean and is now based in Florida, where she works as a captain on a 108-foot-long privately owned vessel.

Gordon, who has over 12,600 followers on Instagram , shares three factors to keep in mind before boarding a chartered superyacht.

Think of the process of chartering a superyacht as buying a house

One of the most important things to do when chartering a superyacht is to work with a charter broker, Gordon says.

"The charter manager's job is to No. 1: find you a safe boat," Gordon said, adding that in her experience, "Not all programs put safety as high up on the list as it should be."

She also likes to equate charter brokers to Realtors in that they take on the role of finding you the best option for your taste.

"You find one that you gel with really well and has a good reputation, and then you discuss with them what your budget is, where you want to go, what your activity levels are, what your personalities are like," Gordon said.

Pairing clients with a crew that aligns with their characteristics is a huge part of a charter broker's job, Gordon said.

"If you think about it, you're living with that crew for 24/7, around the clock," she said. "You're not going put someone that just wants to sit and read books all day with a crew that's extremely active."

Find a crew that is competent and prioritizes safety

Charter brokers also help match clients with a competent crew that prioritizes safety.

"I don't know that many people realize just how much their life is in our hands when we cast those lines and we go to sea," Gordon said.

Part of that is having a safety briefing, which Gordon carries out every time she welcomes clients onto a chartered vessel before leaving a dock.

A thorough safety briefing includes informing clients about the location of safety equipment and lifejackets and the procedures for events such as a fire, a person falling overboard, or the boat sinking.

"You should have a safety briefing, and if you don't get one, you should ask for one," Gordon said.

The process, she added, can be different on privately owned yachts, where passengers may be familiar with the vessel.

The Bayesian is a private yacht owned by tech tycoon Mike Lynch; it's not yet known what kind of safety protocols staff and guests were trained on.

Make sure there's a member of the crew on watch 24/7

"A lot of charter guests think when they go to sleep, the crew goes to sleep," Gordon said.

But that shouldn't be the case, she added. "You want to be on a boat knowing that someone's up, because if the weather changes or the anchor starts to drag, you need somebody that's up and ready to go and get everybody else to handle it."

Among the biggest weather risks are tornados, which can be extremely difficult to predict and prepare for whether you're on land or at sea.

"I'm from the Midwest, where tornados pop up," Gordon said. "It's hard to see a tornado coming, and if you do see it coming, the tornado goes where it wants to go."

Most often, that leaves people near the weather event with just minutes to ready themselves, which is even trickier "in the middle of the night."

While rapid changes in weather are tough to contend with, Gordon recommends researching the areas you are sailing in beforehand, like you would when visiting a new country.

"It's no different than if you're going on vacation on land," she said. "You want to know where you're going. Don't put that just all on the crew."

While the research doesn't have to be as extensive as the crew should be doing, it's important to still be "responsible for your own self as well as your family and your guests."

DNC 2024 Day 2: 'Yes, she can': Obama endorses Harris, blasts Trump

Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff re-introduced himself to America in his Tuesday night's speech.

'Let's get to work' Obama says as he concludes speech

After more than 30 minutes on stage, Obama had a simple message for convention-goers.

Former President Barack Obama hugs former first lady Michelle Obama as he is introduced during the Democratic National Convention Tuesday, Aug. 20, 2024, in Chicago.

"As much as any policy or program, I believe that's what we yearn for, a return to an America where we work together and look out for each other," Obama said.

"That is what this election is about," he added. "And I believe that's why, if we each do our part over the next 77 days, if we knock on doors, if we make phone calls, if we talk to our friends, if we listen to our neighbors, if we work like we've never worked before, if we hold firm to our convictions, we will elect Kamala Harris as the next president of the United States and Tim Walz as the next vice president of the United States."

"So let's get to work. God bless you, and God Bless the United States of America."

Obama says 'mutual respect' must be part of party's message

Obama said to build a true Democratic majority, they have to give grace to people who may not align with their political views.

Former President Barack Obama speaks during the Democratic National Convention Tuesday, Aug. 20, 2024, in Chicago.

"That sense of mutual respect has to be part of our message," he said. "Our politics have become so polarized these days that all of us across the political spectrum seem so quick to assume the worst in others unless they agree with us on every single issue."

"We start thinking that the only way to win is to scold and shame and out-yell the other side. And after a while, regular folks just tune out or they don't bother to vote," he continued. "Now that approach may work for the politicians who just want attention and thrive on division, but it won't work for us to make progress on the things we care about, the things that really affect people's lives."

Obama later acknowledged those ideas "can feel pretty naive right now" but was adamant "the ties that bind us are still there."

NEWS... BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

Factory worker filmed testing ‘up to 10,000 vapes a day’

author image

Share this with

Shocking footage from a documentary has shown a factory worker testing ?up to 10,000 vapes a day? in a Chinese vape factory. Not all jobs are created equally, some have long hours, some are mind-numbing while others require an obscene amount of huffing and puffing. It has likely never crossed most people?s minds, but someone has to make sure the millions of e-cigarettes sold around the world each year work upon purchase. For one particular factory in China, this role falls heavy upon the shoulders of just a select few. The shocking discover was made in a YouTube video by Machina who visited a vape factory in Baoan, Shenzhen, in China where he claims the area produces 80 per cent of the world?s vapes. The channel explored the production process as well as the materials that go into the products and many other technical aspects.

A shocking documentary filmed inside a vape factory shows a worker allegedly testing up to 10,000 vapes a day.

YouTuber Machina claims to provide viewers with ‘the most reliable information about the Chinese manufacturing world’.

A video filmed in January, which has gone viral on social media in the last couple of days, claims to have been filmed inside a factory in Baoan, in the Shenzhen region of China .

Machina claims the area produces around 80% of the world’s vapes, and the video explores the production process and discusses materials used.

Wearing yellow protective gear, the presenter first goes to the assembly line where he holds up the core of a vape and describes how it’s put together.

He watches foam being inserted into the casing and injected with the vape liquid, before the heating element and wicking is added to control the amount of vapour inhaled.

The presenter then goes on to describe how the factory comes up with new, different flavours of vape, allowing staff to vote on their favourite tastes.

About halfway through the 10-minute video , the camera turns to a man dressed in pink, holding dozens of vapes in each hand as he takes a puff on each one.

The presenter asks him how many vapes he tests each day, to which he explained he would puff on around 7-8,000 vapes every day, but at peak times ‘it can exceed 10,000’.

The worker adds that he does also smoke outside of work.

The footage has raised concerns amongst vapers, due to the questionable hygiene practices of puffing on a vape which has already been used by a complete stranger.

Viewers were also worried about the health of the man forced to test thousands of vapes every day, raising concerns about his lungs.

Towards the end of the video, the presenter interviews who appears to the the factory owner, who says his vapes sell for $1-5USD.
