Well let's see.. Us experienced yacht engineers usally make in the ball park of $8000 per month on the normal 150 foot yacht. We live and spend 95% of our time onboard these yachts. If I wasn't working I would be at home or some where else so I feel that I am working when I am on board these vessel, even if I am off at the moment, but I am there and will be working at 2 am if an alarm goes off or something..
So..
24/7 X 30 = 720 hours per month
$8000.00 per month divided by 720 hours= $11.11 per hour
11 to 12 dollars an hour is the normal pay for the normal engineer. And some think we are over paid?
