Have
you considered a career as a captain or a crew on a super yacht?
Maybe you are thinking of making a career change, filling a gap
year, or choosing your profession upon leaving school. This could
be the opportunity of a lifetime to fulfill your dream of working
internationally on a Super Yacht or in the Maritime Industry.
Work as a professional
captain or crew on megayachts
The Superyacht Crew Academy is a division of Club Sail, a
partnership school of International Yacht Training, Inc.,
offers professional sail and motor vessel IYT training courses. In addition to professional level courses, we offer recreational IYT courses that parallel the training under the Australian s.
IYT
Certificates are MCA recognized allowing you to find employment
on mega yachts registered in 23 countries around the world no matter
where the yacht is located.
All commercial
charter vessels require certified masters/captains and crew. Most
insurance companies now require that all paid crew have MCA approved
yachtmaster certificates and the STCW95 courses.
IYT Professional Yachtmaster Courses are for advanced participants with certain
requirements of pre-course experience. These are referred to in
the details of each course below.
You are not
precluded from these courses as a recreational sailor, in fact we
highly recommend the extra depth of knowledge and certification
to anyone. For those that are starting out afresh as a novice, The Superyacht Crew Academy offers the "Fast
Track" course
options.
If you fall
in between and are not a novice but don’t quite have enough
experience to meet the required levels for the courses then we will
tailor the course options just for you. This means you won't have
to take courses you have done before.
For example,
maybe you need a few more offshore miles or an International Bareboat Captain/Skipper course or a VHF course. Whatever you require, just give us a call
and we will be happy to talk through your personal circumstances.
After you have
your IYT certificate, The Superyacht Crew Academy will assist you with placement. For information about professional Superyacht Crew placements, click here.
