We'd like to hear about the places you've been and the people you've met. If you have pictures, post 'em. And if you've got a story we should all hear... then fire away!

I am looking for fulltime employment in luxury yacht industry. I'm well qualified (Chiropractor, Diving Instructor, STCW) in diverse fields but struggling to find work....

I have experience...just completed a delivery across Atantic..

Hi,

Have you tried the agencies or made any contacts in your past experience who you could ask to keep an ear out for you?

Have you thought about walking the docks doing day work etc?

Good jobs don't fall into newbies laps everyday.

Qualifications, whilst required for many of the boats today do not mean experience on their own.

This is becoming more and more obvious as time under the current regs goes on and some of the qualified candidates getting jobs continue to demonstrate their extreme lack of experience in real world situations.
