schedule

That's a good point. Certainly the case on charter vessel. The 2-weeks on, 2 weeks off is quite common in the off-shore industry. In the merchant marine it is (or used to be) more like 4-5 work, 1 month free. The working schedule would depend on how many days you spend at sea and in or near ports. At sea it would be a normal 8 to 5 pm day.

Certainly different from a mega yacht in many ways.
