Some examples of good yacht crew CV photos:
Remember that looks are not important, what matters is the photo should capture a glimpse of your character. A smiley photo with a nice light, wearing a plain white polo or collared shirt (for chef's whites or blacks for chefs), no cap, no sunglasses, neat and tidy. No selfies. If possible try to take a picture outdoors, with yachts in background but this is not mandatory.

Your Yachting CV (Curriculum Vitae) is most likely the first point of contact a superyacht has with you. Therefore, putting together the Perfect Yachting CV is essential. After all, it’s your personal sales pitch to the Captain or Head Of Department looking to hire you!
A Yachting CV differs significantly from a land-based CV. It features maritime jargon, qualifications, and a photo. As well as this, it also requires a particular layout that needs to tick the relevant ‘industry standard’ boxes. Imagine a Captain or Chief Stew has 150 CV’s on their desk. If your CV doesn’t look like a Yachting CV, it’s probably going straight to the shredder. It needs to look the part!
Below I have created a simple step-by-step guide providing all you need to create a perfect, professional yachting CV AND If you need some help with this check out my course – The Yachting CV Toolkit . It’s a comprehensive guide which includes 3 x CV templates, a full CV review and all the information on how to piece together your CV from land to sea to make sure you have the best chance at scoring your dream yacht job.
1. Primary Information
Start by filling in all primary information within the top half of the page, including your phone number, email, date of birth and nationality (Do not include your passport number!). Also include your health status (if you’re COVID vaccinated), marital status, driver’s license, your current location and availability.
- Phone numbers: I recommend having a local sim card when you are in an area to ensure a boat can contact you at any time. WhatsApp is extensively used within the industry. Therefore I recommend getting a WhatsApp number. Once you are in the industry, you will most likely have various international sim cards. It’s a good idea to keep one consistent WhatsApp number. Then, use the local number you may have at the time for phone calls and data.
- Email: If your email isn’t professional sounding (e.g. [email protected]), create a new one.
- Location : Ensure this is kept up to date, as captains will use this location to work out your flight paths and travel arrangements when you secure a job.
![yachting cv picture](https://theseaworthystew.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/13131/2022/01/CV.png)
2. Qualifications
Here you will need to separate your maritime qualifications (mandatorily required certificates) and other qualifications to avoid clutter.
For your Maritime Certifications such as STCW, PDSD and Food Hygiene Level 2, add the expiry dates or the year of completing them if an expiry date is not applicable.
If you have other relevant qualifications , you can create another heading and include certificates such as University Degrees or Diplomas, Post Graduate Education, PADI or SCUBA (Dive Certifications), Carpentry or Electrician (Deck related only), Floristry course, Mixology or Wine Courses.
3. Work Experience and your transferable skill s
In this section, you need to list your land-based and/or yachting experience. If you’re green , you will need to pull apart all your land-based work experiences, highlighting the duties/skills that could be transferable to the yachting industry.
If you have worked in restaurants, hotels, events or the aviation or cruise ship industry, this is all highly transferable to yachting. It is essential to pull out any key skills and include them under your type of experience, such as Hospitality Experience or Other Experience. It is not necessary to write all aspects of the job. Choose the duties that are the most relevant to your desired yachting role. From here, you can further break down and add relatable skills to help explain your background and what you’re capable of.
Once you have day work experience, you can add this to your ‘Yachting Experience’ heading, including all of the key duties you had and the time you were on board.
If you have Yachting Experience, highlight everything unique about your position and the direct responsibilities you had. Then you need to back up these with examples as proof. For example, instead of writing you have ‘Wine Knowledge’ you need to think about how you used this skill. It may have been a food and wine pairing menu for charter guests, here you SHOW OFF your talent’s with a practical example. Think about what your working highlights were whilst onboard. What did you LOVE to do? Maybe you have been setting up themed nights and planning events such as beach BBQs.
For your yachting experience, we should write it as per the below:
- MM YY – MM YY M/Y NAME, 80 M OCEANCO • 2200GT – STEWARDESS
- Followed by a paragraph about the position (This format also applies to any day work experience).
Your hobbies should be a brief paragraph where you can add a few quirky things, outdoor activities, and water-sport activities. If you’re aiming for an interior role, you can add something creative if it suits you (do not put socialising).
It’s a good idea to look at transferring your hobbies into skills. As the hobbies section is an excellent place to put secondary skills superyachts may look for. For example, you may have on your CV that you’re into photography and filming. They could turn this into taking crew profile pictures, creating a guest charter and welcome videos.
It is not uncommon for charter boats to request crew to have additional skills that guests may find interesting or helpful. It allows charter brokers to sell a yacht having valuable crew skills such as kite-surfing or a pilates teacher onboard. These skills are also usually listed under your crew profile in the boat’s Welcome booklet .
5. The Perfect Yachting CV Personal Profile
This section is one of the LAST steps as it ties together all your experience and skills. It’s also the most important paragraph of your CV and should be six sentences or less and sit right below your primary information.
Your Personal Profile is where you persuade the reader to carry on looking at your CV. Your profile should concisely and effectively display who you are, your skills and strengths relevant to the role and the experience to back it up. Therefore, I recommend saving this key paragraph to last as it’s a summary and the hook, line and sinker as to why you are fit for the job.
I suggest splitting your profile into three sections:
- What are you searching for?
- Who you are
- What can you offer?
Bullet point things you might mention under each section, then list the qualities that position you as the ideal person for the job.
If you’re green for the ‘what you’re searching for’ section, I suggest broadening this statement. For example:
“I aim to secure a position as a yacht stewardess/deckhand/chef/engineer position on a motor or sailing yacht.”
You want to avoid being too picky with what you want based on no experience yet.
When you are writing what you can offer, you need to know what you can bring to the table that is unique? You can use a mix of hard and soft skills to position yourself as well-rounded. Last, back up your skills with evidence. Don’t just add ‘attention to detail’. You need to give an example of this.
6. References
Put down a minimum of three references you can rely on to have positive things to say about you. Ensure their information is current when writing on your CV and structure it so the most recent reference is at the top with correct contact details as they will no doubt be checked.
7. Your CV Headshot
Your photo is a really important part of your CV. It needs to show you are professional, smiling and looking the part. This means you will need to dress in a white polo shirt or white blouse (ironed) and ideally have a background of yachts in the distance or water. If you can’t take a picture in these environments, a plain white background is ok. TIP: When you are taking your photo, have your shoulders back and put your hands behind you as it helps to stand up tall, also face into the sun (at the perfect time in the day), so you don’t have shadows on your face. Natural makeup and neat hair are best for females. For males, ensure you are well-groomed.
![yachting cv picture](https://theseaworthystew.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/13131/2022/01/CV-picture-Jessica-904x1024.jpg)
Other important yachting CV rules to follow:
- Your CV should be no longer than two pages
- Font sizes should be between 10.5 and 12
- Correctly labelled and saved as:
NAME SURNAME CV
- Send your CV as a PDF document to a yacht or PDF and .doc to yacht crew agents
- Make sure there are NO Spelling and grammar errors
- List certificates and experience in reverse chronological order
A yachting CV can be the difference between you getting a job and being overlooked among a sea full of other candidates. If you need some help, check out The Yachting CV Toolkit . It’s a comprehensive toolkit that gives you everything you need to create a professional Yachting CV that ticks the industry boxes, and stands out from the rest. It includes:
- Three CV Templates;
- How to recognise the transferable skills from your land-based jobs and apply them to your new CV;
- How to use power words to communicate your message firmly and confidently;

How to write a Yachting CV
If you are new to the Superyacht industry, then you have probably not written a yachting CV before. If you need help writing a Yachting CV, our guide will explain what to do and what not to do.
Writing a Yachting CV differs from a CV that you may write for a land-based job. For example, on a yachting CV, you are asked to provide a picture and give your date of birth, which is considered discriminatory if you apply for a land-based job.
At Flying Fish, we help hundreds of customers new to the Yachting industry write a professional yachting CV. The yachting CV is so important, we include ono-to-one support during our Superyacht Deckhand and Superyacht Steward/ess courses. This forms part of our Career Support Service.
First, a bit of background to a Yachting CV
Your CV is a summary of your skills, experience, and interests. It explains why you are a good fit for the Deckhand or Steward/ess position, plus all the skills and experience you have to offer the yacht.
Research indicates that the reader forms an opinion about your CV in just a few seconds. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that your CV is engaging and flawless.
The yachting CV must include character references, as talking to somebody who knows you gives confidence to the employer.
Your yachting CV needs to create a good first impression and be brief and to the point. It’s a sales pamphlet, not an essay.
The Yachting CV breaks down into seven topics. You don’t have to use our CV template format. Some crew agents may want the headings in a different order. You can design your CV template but ensure you have covered the seven headings below.
- Personal information
Qualifications
- Work/Yachting experience
Hobbies and interests
A few golden rules.
Before we dive into the detail, it is worth highlighting a few important points:
You must be honest. Don’t worry if you have not worked on a superyacht before, it’s not an obstacle to getting a job. If you are a smoker say so. If you have visible tattoos then say so and let the employer decide.
Working on a yacht, whether a small sailing yacht or a large superyacht your character is key. The employer will probably pay more attention to your character/work ethic than your qualifications.
Getting the format right
How you design your yachting CV is just as important as its content. The font you use, and how you present it also play a significant role. Choose a font like Calibri, 11 points, or Verdana 10 points as they are easy to read. Make sure you save your CV as a PDF file or similar format that can be opened on both a MAC or PC.
Personal Information
This is the easy bit, follow the prompts in our CV template. Make sure you add the international dialing code, +44, as an example. Add your current location but bear in mind this will change.
Social Media
Today we all have an online profile. You will add your name, DOB and upload a photo to your CV. Yachts interested in you will likely look at your social media to see what you do in your free time.
Ensure your Instagram, Facebook, and any other profiles confirm what you say about yourself in your CV. For example, if you tell the reader that you are a non-smoker only to find recent images on your social media feeds of you smoking, it will cast doubt in the readers mind to your honesty or perhaps lead to an awkward conversation during your interview!
Superyacht crew are likely to contact you on WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or Instagram. A Captain may ask you to send your CV via one of these channels. We recommend you become familiar with the process of sending your Yachting CV, via WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger.
You must add a passport-sized head and shoulders image to your CV. No selfies! Ask someone to take a photo of you in the morning or evening when the sun is lower to prevent squinting.
It’s a good idea to wear a polo or T-shirt, no branding – something comfortable. No need for a shirt or tie; after all, you won’t be wearing one onboard.
Don’t apply filters or Photoshop your image to enhance it. Keep the size of your photo below 250kb. Many boats download CVs using satellite, so file size is important.
Girls, if you have long hair, tie it back so that we can see your face. We advise wearing minimal makeup and jewelry. Men need to be clean-shaven; make sure your hair neat and tidy.
Below are some examples of CV photos taken of Flying Fish customers.
Start with the most important qualifications first: STCW Basic Safety Training , PDSD , ENG1 medical , Powerboat Level 2 , etc. All your qualifications should be bullet-pointed.
If you have any additional skills relevant to the job you are applying for, then include them here, (Watersports Instructor, Diving, PT Instructor, Beauty, massage, to name a few). We don’t need to know your GCSE results.
Yachting experience
If you have worked on a yacht before, sailed with family or friends, worked on a ferry, dive boat, etc. then here is where you provide a brief summary of your experience so far.
Detail when you were onboard, your position, and the yacht’s name. If you don’t have any yachting experience, don’t worry, remove this section from your yachting CV.
Work experience
Place your work experience chronologically, with your most recent position first. Please describe the skills you learned and how you exceeded expectations in your job, using only two or three sentences.
This is arguably the most important section; what do you like to do in your spare time? Generally, yacht crew are outgoing people who like sport, travel, and adventure.
If you share a passion for the outdoors, you will fit in well. Maybe you play a sport, keep fit, are a keen photographer, have run a marathon, or enjoy travel. All these are relevant as they show your character.
You must list two references in the same format as shown in our Yachting CV template, name, telephone, email. Your references may come from a previous employer or somebody that has worked with you. Your reference can’t come from a family member!
Most recruitment agents ask for a written reference as part of their recruitment process.
What to do next
Now that you have finished your Yachting CV, there are a couple more tasks to do.
- Ask somebody to read your Yachting CV to ensure it makes sense and reads well.
- Spell-check your CV, then spell-check it again!
- Save your CV as a PDF. You can open a PDF on any device. A PDF is a condensed file, so if the reader downloads your CV, it doesn’t chew up all data.
- Your Yachting CV may change. You will probably want to change your photo, and your location will change when you start looking for work. If you perform day work, we will add the yacht you worked on and the tasks you completed to your Yachting CV.
Once you are happy with your Yachting CV, you can start looking for your dream job. You can search for Superyacht jobs on Facebook, YotSpot , or through a Superyacht Recruitment Agency .

How to Put Together The Perfect Yachting CV
![yachting cv picture yachting cv picture](https://www.superyachtcontent.com/wp-content/uploads/angwp/items/34714/mark (1).png)
Your Yachting CV (Curriculum Vitae) is most likely the first point of contact a superyacht has with you. Therefore, putting together the Perfect Yachting CV is essential . After all, it’s your personal sales pitch to the Captain or Head Of Department looking to hire you!
A Yachting CV differs significantly from a land-based CV. It features maritime jargon, qualifications, and a photo. As well as this, it also requires a particular layout that needs to tick the relevant ‘industry standard’ boxes. Imagine a Captain or Chief Stew has 150 CV’s on their desk. If your CV doesn’t look like a Yachting CV, it’s probably going straight to the shredder. It needs to look the part!
Today we have teamed up with yachting entrepreneur, Jess aka The Seaworthy Stew . Jess has created a simple step-by-step guide providing all you need to create a perfect, professional yachting CV:
1. Primary Information
Start by filling in all primary information within the top half of the page, including your phone number, email, date of birth, nationality, and passport. Also include your health status (if you’re COVID vaccinated), marital status, driver’s license, your location and availability.
- Phone numbers: I recommend having a local sim card when you are in an area to ensure a boat can contact you at any time. WhatsApp is extensively used within the industry. Therefore I recommend getting a WhatsApp number. Once you are in the industry, you will most likely have various international sim cards. It’s a good idea to keep one consistent WhatsApp number. Then, use the local number you may have at the time for phone calls and data.
- Email: If your email isn’t professional sounding (e.g. rubytherockstar@hotmail.com), create a new one.
- Location : Ensure this is kept up to date, as captains will use this location to work out your flight paths and travel arrangements when you secure a job.
![yachting cv picture Primary Information needed for the perfect yachting CV](https://www.superyachtcontent.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Screenshot-2021-11-02-at-11.53.23-e1635854236999.png)
2. Qualifications
Here you will need to separate your maritime qualifications (mandatorily required certificates) and other qualifications to avoid clutter.
For your Maritime Certifications such as STCW, PDSD and Food Hygiene Level 2, add the expiry dates or the year of completing them if an expiry date is not applicable.
If you have other relevant qualifications , you can create another heading and include certificates such as University Degrees or Diplomas, Post Graduate Education, PADI or SCUBA (Dive Certifications), Carpentry or Electrician (Deck related only), Floristry course, Mixology or Wine Courses.
3. Work Experience and your transferable skill s
In this section, you need to list your land-based and/or yachting experience. If you’re green , you will need to pull apart all your land-based work experiences, h ighlighting the duties/skills that could be transferable to the yachting industry.
If you have worked in restaurants, hotels, events or the aviation or cruise ship industry, this is all highly transferable to yachting. It is essential to pull out any key skills and include them under your type of experience, such as Hospitality Experience or Other Experience. It is not necessary to write all aspects of the job. Choose the duties that are the most relevant to your desired yachting role. From here, you can further break down and add relatable skills to help explain your background and what you’re capable of.
Once you have day work experience, you can add this to your ‘Yachting Experience’ heading, including all of the key duties you had and the time you were on board .
If you have Yachting Experience, highlight everything unique about your position and the direct responsibilities you had. Then you need to back up these with examples as proof. For example, instead of writing you have ‘Wine Knowledge’ you need to think about how you used this skill. It may have been a food and wine pairing menu for charter guests, here you SHOW OFF your talent’s with a practical example. Think about what your working highlights were whilst onboard. What did you LOVE to do? Maybe you have been setting up themed nights and planning events such as beach BBQs.
For your yachting experience, we should write it as per the below:
- MM YY – MM YY M/Y NAME, 80 M OCEANCO • 2200GT – STEWARDESS
- Followed by a paragraph about the position (This format also applies to any day work experience).
Your hobbies should be a brief paragraph where you can add a few quirky things, outdoor activities, and water-sport activities. If you’re aiming for an interior role, you can add something creative if it suits you (do not put socialising).
It’s a good idea to look at transferring your hobbies into skills. As the hobbies section is an excellent place to put secondary skills superyachts may look for. For example, you may have on your CV that you’re into photography and filming. They could turn this into taking crew profile pictures, creating a guest charter and welcome videos.
It is not uncommon for charter boats to request crew to have additional skills that guests may find interesting or helpful. It allows charter brokers to sell a yacht having valuable crew skills such as kite-surfing or a pilates teacher onboard. These skills are also usually listed under your crew profile in the boat’s Welcome booklet .
5. The Perfect Yachting CV Personal Profile
This section is one of the LAST steps as it ties together all your experience and skills. It’s also the most important paragraph of your CV and should be six sentences or less and sit right below your primary information.
Your Personal Profile is where you persuade the reader to carry on looking at your CV. Your profile should concisely and effectively display who you are, your skills and strengths relevant to the role and the experience to back it up. Therefore, I recommend saving this key paragraph to last as it’s a summary and the hook, line and sinker as to why you are fit for the job.
I suggest splitting your profile into three sections:
- What are you searching for?
- Who you are
- What can you offer?
Bullet point things you might mention under each section , then list the qualities that position you as the ideal person for the job.
If you’re green for the ‘what you’re searching for’ section, I suggest broadening this statement . For example:
“I aim to secure a position as a yacht stewardess/deckhand/chef/engineer position on a motor or sailing yacht.”
You want to avoid being too picky with what you want based on no experience yet.
When you are writing what you can offer, you need to know what you can bring to the table that is unique? You can use a mix of hard and soft skills to position yourself as well-rounded. Last, back up your skills with evidence. Don’t just add ‘attention to detail’. You need to give an example of this.
6. References
Put down a minimum of three references you can rely on to have positive things to say about you. Ensure their information is current when writing on your CV and structure it so the most recent reference is at the top with correct contact details as they will no doubt be checked.
7. Your CV Headshot
Your photo is a really important part of your CV. It needs to show you are professional, smiling and looking the part. This means you will need to dress in a white polo shirt or white blouse (ironed) and ideally have a background of yachts in the distance or water. If you can’t take a picture in these environments, a plain white background is ok. TIP: When you are taking your photo, have your shoulders back and put your hands behind you as it helps to stand up tall, also face into the sun (at the perfect time in the day), so you don’t have shadows on your face. Natural makeup and neat hair are best for females. For males, ensure you are well-groomed.

Other important yachting CV rules to follow:
- Your CV should be no longer than two pages
- Font sizes should be between 10.5 and 12
- Correctly labelled and saved as:
NAME SURNAME CV
- Send your CV as a PDF document to a yacht or PDF and .doc to yacht crew agents
- Make sure there are NO Spelling and grammar errors
- List certificates and experience in reverse chronological order

How to Write the Perfect Yacht CV [With Template]
If you’re looking to craft the perfect yacht CV, you’ve come to the right place. As the Chief Stewardess onboard a 50m Super Yacht, I’ve been assisting Captains with hiring crew and gathering yacht crew CVs for 8 years.
With my experience, I am familiar with the type of yachting CVs that Captains prefer to see. It is crucial to make a great first impression to ensure that your yacht resume is given proper consideration.
In this article, I break down the essential do’s and don’ts of a Yacht CV.
Scroll down to the end of this article to find a basic Yacht CV Template to help get you started. And yes, it’s free!
You can use this template and edit it accordingly to create your own Yacht Captain CV, Deckhand CV, Yacht Stew CV, as well as an Engineer or Chef Resume. All that’s left is for you to email it to recruiters or hand out physical copies when dock walking.
Table of Contents
What is a CV in Yachting?
There are a few distinct differences between a regular CV and a CV in yachting.
- The main one is that you need to include a photo of yourself! If you do not include a photo, it is likely your yacht CV will be tossed in the bin
- Unlike other CV’s, you also need to include your date of birth
- You will be highlighting your skills and attributes specific to the job you are applying for. It is a great idea to make these edits to highlight what you have to offer
- As you travel to seek work, you will need to edit your location and availability
![yachting cv picture](https://seaworthysecrets.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/yacht-captain-cv-template-1.jpg)
Layout of a Yacht CV
When a Captain has 20 to 50 yachting resumes on his desk, there is a general easy-to-read layout that they prefer to see.
- It is very important to keep your CV to 2 pages
- Use a simple, easy-to-read font
- If you want to be creative with your colors, go for it. Just make sure the Captain can easily read the font
- Keep your layout clear and simple, making sure to include all of the required information listed in this article
- There are numerous Yacht CV examples online for you to decide your preference. A great tool to use is Canva .
Your Photo for a Yachting CV
You may not be a Yachtie yet, but you need to act the part and look like one. Follow these guidelines for the perfect photo:
- SMILE! You want to look like someone the crew would enjoy having onboard
- Dress in something smart/appropriate, and sell yourself as the professional yacht crew member you want to be seen as. Ideally, a polo so you look like a Yachtie
- Take the photo from about the mid-waistline up
- Stand by a natural background of either a marina, the ocean, or some greenery
- Do not take a selfie! Have someone take this photo for you
Profile/Objective
This is a short paragraph highlighting the position you are looking for and any attributes and skills that make you a good fit for the job. Be very specific about what you write here, and be sure to include attributes that are beneficial to the job you are applying for!
This is the moment the Captain will decide if they continue to read the rest of your Yacht CV or not.
![yachting cv picture man standing next to a jetski](https://seaworthysecrets.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/yacht-deckhand-jetski.jpg)
Personal Information to Add to your Yachting CV
Most yachts have very specific requirements when hiring crew, so do not leave out any of the below points:
- Nationality
- Visa’s held
- Tattoo (visible or not)
- Health Status & Smoker (Y/N)
- Languages spoken
- Drivers License
- Email & phone number
- Availability and current location
Yachting Experience
Here, you need to list all of the Yacht Jobs you have held. Be sure to include:
- The name and size of the Yacht
- The dates you were onboard
- The position you held
- Your basic roles, responsibilities, and duties while onboard
- If you have the space, you can include the locations where the vessel cruised
Some of you may not have any maritime experience, and that is ok. If you have done any day work, be sure to include that here and highlight your duties and the dates you were onboard.
Other Non-Yachting Experience
Here, you want to include any experience prior to yachting, even if it is not yachting-related.
Captains like to see any jobs/positions you have held in the past, as skills are always transferable. This gives some insight into what you have been doing leading up to the point of finding a job in yachting.
![yachting cv picture a template of a yacht cv](https://seaworthysecrets.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/yacht-cv-1-724x1024.jpg)
Qualifications to Include on your Yacht CV
List all qualifications you have relevant to yachting in your Yacht resume.
Remember that yachts like to see add-on skills, so things such as Scuba Diving Instructor, Yoga Instructor, Masseuse, and any other certifications you hold should be included.
Here, you just want to include your highest level of education and when you graduated.
Other Interests/About me/Hobbies
This section of your Yacht CV is your chance to list out a few additional standout qualities, attributes, or hobbies. This gives a bit of insight into who you are as a person and what you enjoy doing in your spare time.
This is very important, as anyone can write anything on a piece of paper, but a reference speaks volumes.
Even if the position you held was not maritime-related, a reference is also a good indication of your character and work ethic in any position you have held in the past.
You really want to get written references wherever possible.
![yachting cv picture man driving a tender](https://seaworthysecrets.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/power-boat-level-2-768x1024.jpg)
How to Make sure your CV doesn’t get Trashed
- Take the time to write up a good Yacht CV. I can’t tell you how often I haven’t read further than the first line because of a sloppy, disorganized Yacht resume.
- SPELL CHECK! In an industry where you have to be meticulous in everything that you do, spelling and grammatical issues in your Yacht CV are not a good start.
- When you save and email your Yacht CV, be sure to have it saved in a Word and PDF format.
- When you are responding to a job posting, write a short and clear email to the person who put up the post and highlight why you are a good fit for the position and why you want to become a yachtie .
How to Introduce Yourself in an Email
Dear Captain/To Whom it may concern
Please find attached my resume and references in my application for the position of “Deckhand on a 50m Superyacht”. Although I am new to the industry, I believe I would be an asset to your team as I am motivated and driven to succeed in the yachting industry. I am also an avid wakeboarder and love being on the ocean, so I believe I will adapt well and learn quickly. I am not afraid of hard work, and I look forward to having the opportunity to speak with you further.
Thank you for taking the time to view my application.
Kind regards

How to write a yacht CV in 2023 [with tips, instructions, and examples]
![yachting cv picture Ben Temple](https://www.visualcv.com/static/c755a26b76c864c955f083696f671bef/495a7/avatar_ben__1_.png)
Whether you want to work as a deckhand on a small private vessel or join the large service staff of a superyacht, it’s important to learn how to write a yacht CV.
Working on a yacht can be a fulfilling career. It is a great way to experience the sea, visit different places, meet important people, and have unique experiences. It is also, however, a difficult career. The employee quarters on a yacht typically have little privacy, the days can be long, and the work can be difficult. Further, when you are working on a yacht, you are at sea. You can’t go home until the voyage is over, which could be weeks or even months.
This means that your yacht CV needs to show that not only are you skilled, you have the personality and constitution for working on a yacht.
But if you, like Moby Dick’s Ishmael, find yourself with little or no money in your purse, and nothing particular to interest you on shore, it may be time to write a great yacht CV and see the watery part of the world.
This article will explore all aspects of writing a yacht CV, including:
- What is a yacht CV?
- Yacht CV requirements
Yacht CV certifications
- Yacht CV qualifications
- How to write a yacht CV
A yacht CV is a document describing your yachting skills and experience that you submit to employers as a part of a job application. It will contain details like personal information, work experience, education, and skills.
The yacht experience can vary greatly. Some yachts may have only a single captain on board and a handful of passengers. Others, such as enormous superyachts, may have a large dedicated staff and crew. Yacht jobs can include captain, crew, bosun, mate, deckhand, dock worker, marina worker, chef, sous chef, stewardess, engineer, and more.
The exact details of your yacht CV will depend on your specific career. There are several different paths that might take you to a yacht, and it’s important that your CV has the right details for your specific goals.
- Yacht CV Requirements
If you want to become a yacht employee, sometimes called a “yachtie”, your yacht CV will need to show that you have all the certifications and accreditations for the position you are applying for.
The specific requirements of a yacht CV may depend on what country the yacht company is based in and what countries it will travel to. Because most yacht jobs will require sailing to and from different countries, you will have to be conscious of where the particular yacht job is based and what the hiring requirements are.
Further, the specific qualifications, certifications, and skills that you need will depend on what specific yacht role you are applying for.
If you are looking to work in the kitchen of a yacht, for example, or as wait staff, you will want to list your food safety certifications, your culinary education, and your experience serving.
If you are looking to work as a member of the deck crew, you will need appropriate safety certifications.
Will you be working as a tour guide? Will you have to use the helm, or do any navigation? Will you be dealing directly with customers, clients, or passengers? If so, make sure your yacht CV reflects this.
Yacht CV Certifications
Certain certifications are required to become a yachtie. When you apply for a yacht job, you must ensure that you have the right certifications for your role.
Anyone who works on a commercial ship will need a Standard for Training, Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW) certification.
Also required is an ENG1 Medical or equivalent, which is a certificate confirming that you are medically able to work on a yacht and at sea.
Other certifications, while not strictly mandatory, can improve your CV, such as deckhand training courses and boating certifications like Power Boat 2.
If you are applying for a role in the kitchen or in a hospitality role, you can also look for stewardess training courses, food safety and hygiene certifications, hospitality courses, silver service courses, and more.
It’s important to think carefully about exactly what type of career you are pursuing and what certifications can help you.
Once you have the certifications you need, you can get to work writing your yacht CV. Yacht CV sections include:
Yacht CV personal information
At the beginning of your CV, make sure to add your personal information.
This should begin with your contact details. In your contact information section, include your:
- Email address
- Phone Number
- City of residence
In the USA and Canada, you are not expected to include a picture with your yacht CV. In most European countries, however, a picture will be expected, especially if your position will be guest-facing. Make sure to study the CV requirements of your specific country when preparing your CV. If you provide a picture, make sure it is professional and appropriate.
Some yacht companies also require you to state whether you are a smoker, and whether you have tattoos. You can include this alongside your contact information, or in a separate Personal Details section.
Yacht CV summary
At the top of your CV, begin with a brief professional summary. A summary is a short section, usually only a few sentences or bullet points, that briefly describes you and your experience. It should have a few key highlights, either of key skills that make you a great candidate, or some important achievements from other roles that show what you can do.
A great summary can be what convinces a hiring manager to read the rest of the CV.
![yachting cv picture Yacht CV Summary](https://www.visualcv.com/static/d5021c8fe3636a2edf052de72796dc0a/a2938/yacht-cv-summary.png)
Yacht CV work experience
Your Work Experience section is the most important part of your CV. It is the longest section, and the section containing the most detail.
In a Work Experience section, list previous positions in reverse-chronological order, beginning with your current or most recent job and working backwards. In each role, provide a job description that details your responsibilities and achievements in that position.
For each entry, include:
- Company name
- Dates worked
- Job description
If you have experience working on a yacht, you should emphasize your yacht positions, providing them with more detail than you do to other positions. Work Experience entries for yacht jobs can also be formatted differently. For yacht positions, list the name of the vessel, its size, and whether the yacht was private or charter.
For example:
Deep Blue | 103’ | Private Stewardess June 2021 - August 2022
This gives yacht employers a clear idea of what kind of yacht experience you have.
When writing your job descriptions for each role, try to focus on concrete examples of your experience, including achievements and accomplishments. Describing only your basic duties makes for a boring CV.
To come up with achievements, try to brainstorm concrete successes that you contributed to. It can help to consider quantifiable aspects of your job. If you can provide verifiable numbers, your experience will seem more credible and more impressive. For a yacht CV, measurable aspects of previous positions could include the size of the vessel, the length of the voyage, the number of passengers or rooms, event attendance, provisioning budgets, and more.
Further, be sure to use active language as much as possible when describing past experience. Action words make your work experience seem more dynamic, and make you sound like an independent worker who takes initiative and gets the job done. Action words like organized , managed , hosted , spearheaded , and navigated all indicate an employee that employers would be happy to hire.
![yachting cv picture Yacht CV Example: Work Experience](https://www.visualcv.com/static/9f4556dc82c451996b0f769e18bee980/e5770/yacht-cv-work-experience.png)
Yacht CV education
The importance of your education will depend on your specific role. If you are applying to work as a server or deckhand, a post-secondary degree won’t be necessary (as long as you have the right certifications). If you are applying as an engineer, however, you will need to show that you have the right academic credentials.
In your Education section, list your degrees in reverse-chronological order, beginning with your most recent degree and working backwards. For each entry, include the:
- Degree name
- School name
- Date of graduation
Generally, a description isn’t needed in an Education entry. If there are particular aspects of your education that you would like to highlight, however, such as GPA, specializations, or a key project, they can be included.
![yachting cv picture Yacht CV Example: Education section](https://www.visualcv.com/static/7be57cde60757ec7fb117bd67eab8cab/20977/yacht-cv-education.png)
Certain certifications are integral to your yacht CV. If you want to work on a yacht, or any commercial vessel, you will need to show that you have the right safety training and health certification.
This usually means that you need to list your STCW certification and ENG 1 Medical certification. You may also want to include your Power Boat 2 certification. First aid certifications can also be an asset.
However, those certifications may not be enough. Be sure to study the job posting and research the position as much as possible so you know exactly what certifications will be required.
Yacht CV skills
A Skills section is a section of your CV where you list your most important and most relevant competencies. This can include soft skills , like communication and people skills, and hard skills , like electrical engineering or navigation.
A Skills section, while not strictly mandatory, is a great way to make your yacht CV more impressive. Listing all your skills in one place makes it easy for employers to quickly glance at your CV and see exactly what your expertise is.
The easiest way to format your skill section is to simply list your skills in a bulleted list. Sort the list so that your most relevant skills are at the top.
If you would like to draw more attention to your skills, you can make each skill or skill area a heading, and provide a more detailed description of the skill below. With VisualCV, you can even add strength ratings to each skill. This method works great for skills-based CVs .
Yacht CV skills can include:
- Customer Service
- Maintenance
- Firefighting
Yacht CV interests
When you work on a yacht, you will be sharing cramped quarters with all of your coworkers, with very little privacy and no time to yourself. For this reason, it’s important to make sure you are a good culture fit for the vessel. While not mandatory, it can be a good idea to include a brief selection of your interests and hobbies in your yacht CV so the employer can see if you will fit in with the rest of the crew.
- Customize your Yacht CV
Even if you are only applying for yacht jobs, it’s important to customize your yacht CV for every application. Different job postings will have specific requirements and specific skills they are looking for, so it’s important to make sure your CV is a perfect fit. A generic CV won’t be perfect for every application.
To do this, study the application closely, and research the company and vessel to learn as much about it as you can. Then, use what you have learned to carefully customize your CV so that the right skills, experience, and personality are emphasized. Remain truthful, but edit your experience so that it matches the job description as closely as possible.
- Yacht CV example

How to build a yachtie CV!
by Gemma Hulbert
I have been promising to do this blog post for what feels like years now.
I have been putting it off because I wanted to make sure I could dedicate enough time to answer the most frequently asked questions & eloquently put into words just how important it is to format your CV correctly.
Last May, I started looking to fill a Junior Stewardess position I had onboard. Using my social media & various Facebook groups, I shared that I was more than happy to take green candidates. I’ve said it before that I don’t feel as though enough Chief Stews hire green stews. While many Captains won’t allow it, I had the freedom to pick my team & I wouldn’t let this opportunity go to waste. Within 24 hours, I had over 400 CV’S!!! To ensure the hiring process was as fair as possible, I went through & reviewed every single CV, reference letter & email. I sat in my office until 10 pm for three days in a row; I just found it so interesting to see various layouts, photographs, introductions, etc. It was very apparent who had put time into their CV & who had just thrown it together. I’m sure it isn’t surprising that I only shortlisted candidates who had put considerable amounts of effort into their CVs.
So, I am here to help!
Below are some of the most frequently asked questions from Stewardesses regarding CVs and my answers! Please keep in mind that this is just based on my opinion.
What basics should I follow?
I follow five rules:
- CV’s should be no longer than two pages
- Keep font size between 10-12
- Don’t have significant gaps – if your CV is only 1 page, that’s fine!
- Save it as a .doc if you are using a Mac & always send your CV as a PDF to boats & .doc to crew, agents,
- When saving your CV, ensure it is listed, for example, Anna Clarke CV.
The general order I follow is:
- Personal Info & Photograph
- Qualifications
![yachting cv picture](https://theyachtstew.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/sandrachile-686933-unsplash.jpg)
What personal information should I put in my CV?
I list my info on the top left corner with a photograph on the top right side. I list the following:
- First & Last Name (This is the header – so make it a larger font)
- Position Wanted (This is the sub-header, write Stewardess, Stewardess/Masseuse, etc.)
- Telephone Number
- Email Address
- Date of Birth
- Nationality & visas held *Include expiry dates for your passport(s) & visas
- Current Location *BE HONEST If you are shortlisted because you say you’re in Antibes when you are actually in Cape Town – then you are already misleading the vessel
- Health *I always write “Excellent, No Tattoos, Non-Smoker.”
When you are a Greenie with no experience, what should you put on your CV?
Below the personal details are the Objective Paragraph. This is your time to shine! Share how your previous experiences have set you up to take on this new challenge. Have you worked in a bar? Share that your boutique bar experience has provided you with excellent bespoke cocktail knowledge. Write out what you are looking for in an Interior Team , for example: “I am looking forward to joining a dynamic Interior team with a heavy focus on training & teamwork.” It is ALL about wording & being confident in your experience.
Next, list all of your previous jobs in chronological order. Yachting-related positions, including daywork, come first & then move onto land experience. Write a least 2-3 FULL sentences about each position you held. Go into depth about all hospitality ( service, food & beverage, housekeeping, laundry & floristry ), organisation, administration skills that you have learned whilst on the job.
When sharing about your yachting experience, write out the following:
Date’s Onboard (left side of the page), Name of Vessel (centre of page), Position Held (right side of the page) Paragraph about the position
For example: Oct 2019 – 2020, M/Y Lilly, Chief Stewardess I joined M/Y Lilly during a very busy shipyard season…
![yachting cv picture](https://theyachtstew.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/karly-gomez-360069-unsplash-e1554378312444.jpg)
What should I leave off of my CV?
- Any info relating to High School, as it makes you come across as very young
- There is no need to list the negative reasons why you have left previous positions; keep it POSITIVE
- Don’t write anything regarding salary, enquire about this during the Interview
I only have 1 season’s experience; what should I be sharing about that vessel?
I have seen Stewardess with 1 season experience Far too often only write a few words about their time onboard; this is NOT acceptable. Here are a few questions to consider when typing out your experience:
- How many guest cabins were you responsible for?
- Did you assist with provisioning?
- What type of service did you do onboard? Silver service, plated, buffet, etc.
- Was it strict or a family atmosphere with the guests?
- Did you perform a solo drinks service at night?
- Are you comfortable detailing a cabin by yourself?
- What was your highlight while onboard?
For my CV photo, should I wear a Polo or Shirt?
The all-important photo is a topic that will probably be debated until the end of time! However, my personal preference is as follows:
- White fitted polo shirt
- Crop the image, chest it
- Have your hair neatly pulled back. It HAS to look tidy
- Professional and classy makeup *Less is more & don’t overdo it
- Smile!! I want to see your smiley face!
- DO NOT TAKE A SELFIE
Keep in mind that often CV’s have to be sent to Management, Owners or the Owners Representative before the interview. Therefore, ensure that your photograph is professional-looking.
![yachting cv picture](https://theyachtstew.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/giannis-agathokleous-373597-unsplash.jpg)
Are cover letters needed?
In my experience, I have never needed to send a cover letter. I use my introduction email as a cover letter instead and then allow my CV to speak for itself. As a Chief Stew, I seldom look at Cover Letters – my focus is on your experience and the professionalism of your CV.
I hope this helps you when you are next putting together your CV! Have a question about CVs? Let me know in the comments below, and I will be happy to answer them!

YACHTING CV FORMAT GUIDE
Here is a simple guide for those of you who may be considering trying to get a job in the superyacht industry. Writing a Yachting CV is a little different to a normal CV that you may write for a land based job. For example, if you are writing a CV for a job on a yacht, you are asked to provide a photograph and give your date of birth, which is considered discriminatory if applying for jobs on land.
A photo is important, if you don’t include one on your CV, it considerably reduces your chances to almost nil of being considered for a position.
When having a photo done for your CV, don’t apply filters or Photoshop to enhance the image. Prospective employers want to see the real you.
A smart appearance is incredibly important onboard and your profile picture should reflect this. Your photo should be head and shoulders only. If you have long hair then tie it back. Minimal makeup and jewellery are advised. Men need to be clean-shaven, or a tidy beard, certainly well-groomed and hair also neat and tidy. Cover tattoos and remove any piercings.
Keep your photo size below 250kb. Many boats are downloading using satellite so file size is important. This also applies to using heavy colour blocks on a CV. Too much can be slow to download and don’t over elaborate on the graphics.
Your CV could perhaps be described as a flyer to generate an interest in you and your experience leaving the greater details to discuss at interview stage. Don‘t list everything , just the good stuff and the things that will hopefully make you stand out from the rest!
Keep it clear, concise and factual. Too much graphic design also distracts the reader from the main objective of reading the facts so it is suggested that you don’t set it out like a comprehensive Michelin restaurant menu or a brochure for a yachting holiday!
Another tip worthy of considering when in your search for your dream job on a yacht, is to make sure all your profiles on social media are appropriate before your CV is in the inbox of a potential employer. This also applies to your WhatsApp photo. If you are calling yourself a non-smoker on your CV and there are photos of you having a cheeky smoke somewhere out there on the one of socials, take it down, or you’ll very likely be caught out. Prospective employers will almost certainly check out your public-facing profiles to learn more about you. It’s important, therefore, to remove negative comments and inappropriate photographs, or change your profiles to ‘private’. Failing to do so could mean that you may never make it to interview stage.
Carefully proof read and check for grammar and punctuation mistakes. If attention to detail is listed on your CV as being one of your key skills and your CV is littered with typo’s, then this will also work against you.
The CV format here is a simple example of how to go about putting together your first CV for the industry if you haven’t done so before.
There are many templates available to use online so have a play around. Just keep in mind and implement the advice suggested and you’ll be good to go.

Your CV is an important tool for agencies, senior crew, management companies and even Owners when considering you for potential vacancies.
Your CV is your chance for you to sell yourself on first impression, so ensure it does. Yachting is about attention to detail, so ensure that your CV is a concise summary of your qualifications, skills, experience and attributes.
You should target your CV towards the job you are applying for, giving the reader a clear understanding of the position that you really want, you do not want to look undecided. Ensure that all grammar and spelling is checked prior to submission.
It is important that you express your experience in an easy to follow format that is well presented, you do not want to confuse anybody. Flashy colour schemes, crazy fonts and numerous yacht photographs can detract from what is vital information for the reader.
Ideally keep the CV to two pages and when sending to an agency a word or PDF file are usually preferred.

Yachting CV and Cover Letters
![yachting cv picture yachting cv picture](https://www.palmayachtcrew.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/close-up-rope.jpg)
Consider your yachting CV the best tool you have to sell yourself as a professional and qualified candidate for the position you will be applying for.
When you are in direct competition for the jobs with so many other hopeful newcomers to the industry, it is vital that your CV and your cover letter has all the necessary information included, has no spelling mistakes and a great photo. Keep your CV to 2 pages max (prints should be printed on either side of one high quality sheet of paper).
All information needs to be up to date, accurate and TRUE. Believe it or not, but some people include incorrect information thinking it will get them a job sooner, where as being dishonest in fact will burn bridges. The industry is small enough for the word to get around when someone lie on their CV. Honesty will always get you further. Of all people in the world, sailors know bullshit when they see it… Keep it in mind!
Some crew agencies prefer Word files while others prefer PDFs, so save your CV in both formats. Avoid funky or even smart looking fonts. Using Arial or Times New Roman 12 with a simple layout is fine.
The option to use a professional CV-writing service has increased in popularity in recent years. If you are not comfortable with composing your first yachting CV yourself, you can have a professional CV writer assist you, although it is not strictly necessary. Many captains and agencies actually prefer to see crew doing their own work rather than paying others to do it for them.
You will do just fine using that BUT do make sure to turn on your spell checker!! CVs full of spelling mistakes are not the best way to start.
When you forward your yachting CV to a potential employer, it is really important to include a cover letter in which you explain why the job is of interest to you and why you believe you are the perfect candidate for the position.
A cover letter is your one-shot at getting noticed beyond your CV, so put a good effort into it and sell yourself. If you are not 100% certain about what to say or if you should add or remove parts, have somebody with a little more experience read through it, possibly a crew agent, a captain or a senior crew member – and remember to use the spell checker! People are generally happy to help.
By including a custom written cover letter you will appear professional and will definitely stand out from the majority of most other candidates for the job. Forwarding a CV without as much as a few lines explaining why you are interested in the job, and why you believe you are a great candidate for the job, will not do you any favours. Believe it or not, but that is what many do! In fact, your CV is likely to be ignored or at least catch less attention without a cover letter.
The same goes for “Dear Sir/Madam” or “To whom this may concern”, both considered to be impersonal greetings. A captain doesn’t mind a “Hello Captain X (insert his name)” or if you will be writing to a senior crew member, you can simply use their first name as in “Hello Jane”. Instantly, the employer gets the feeling of you being someone, who has taken your time to read the job advert and who is easy to communicate with. Google the yacht if you have the name to familiarise yourself even further with the vessel. It doesn’t take much to get started with a good first impression!
Like so many other things in life, taking the time to present yourself well, you will inevitably be generating calls from employers. Spending time and effort on a well-composed and well-written CV and cover letter will get your CV closer to the top of the pile and eventually also land you a job.
Good luck with the job hunting!!
Check your spelling, then when you’re finished. Check. Your. Spelling!

How do I write a yachting CV?
![yachting cv picture How to write a yachting CV](https://uksa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Course-Page-Images-796x530-14.png)
Are you looking to work at sea, perhaps as a deckhand or a steward/stewardess on a superyacht, as a flotilla or charter skipper for a holiday company or even as part of an offshore windfarm team? We have put together a fantastic guide on how to write your all-important eye-catching CV.
Making sure your CV gets placed on the ‘yes’ pile is key to securing your first job in the yachting industry.
Here at UKSA, along with our specialised Careers Courses designed to teach you the necessary skills required to enter into the yachting industry, we also have a Careers and Industry Guidance Team dedicated to helping you make that first step into your dream job.
Not only do we provide industry talks and workshops, we also set up networking opportunities alongside a recruitment service, and with this we offer interview techniques and CV-writing training, with one-to-one support.
What is so special about a yachting CV?
A yachting CV is different from the CVs we are taught to write at school. There is a specific format which you need to follow and you are required to include information about yourself that you might find a little shocking and discriminatory at first, such as your photo, your date of birth as well as your nationality!
Before we discuss the nitty-gritty of a yachting CV it’s important to understand that the yachting industry has an extremely high turnover so when a position becomes available, an employer, crew agent or management company will have a huge number of CVs to sift through. Your CV needs to stand out above the rest and state why you are the right person for the role, all in an initial 5-10 seconds!
So, how do I write my yachting CV?
Your CV should be clear, concise, using full sentences and a font size no smaller than 11. The layout is extremely important; it must be pleasing to the eye. Make sure your margins line up, the headings and font style match throughout and that your CV is no more than 2 pages long. All phone numbers (both yours and those for your referees) must be in the international format (eg +44). Check for grammar and spelling mistakes and ask someone to proofread it.
You must be truthful! With social media today, anyone can search for you using the information provided on your CV. Don’t pretend to be someone you’re not. If you’re not into dinghy sailing , then don’t say that you are, and if you smoke, then don’t state that you don’t. If caught lying on your CV your application will simply be rejected, or worst still, you could be black-listed by the employer, crew agent or management company (and the yachting industry is a very small industry!).
What else should I think about when writing my CV?
Social media.
Make sure that when an employer searches for you (and they will!) that you have either set your privacy settings so high that they can’t find you, or that you have removed all scandalous photos from your social media accounts; a potential employer won’t want to see you looking a bit worse for wear at a festival! What they will want to see is how you’ve described yourself and your interests matches what they find on Facebook and Instagram.
Top tip: fill your social media accounts with articles relevant to the industry you’re looking to enter into. For example, if it’s the superyacht industry then follow relevant groups and crew agents and share interesting articles pertinent to the industry.
So, where do I start?
The sections.
We have listed below a full list of the sections you’ll need to include in your yachting CV. You can also download our Yachting CV Template here .
Name and Position
Make sure your name (first name and surname) stands out in a larger font at the top of the page and include the position you’re seeking either next to, or under your name. Try to avoid using middle names as this can be confusing.
It is imperative that you include a photo of yourself otherwise your CV will be discarded immediately. This needs to be a head and shoulders shot of you looking professional and dressed correctly for the position you’re applying for. For those of you looking to enter into the superyacht industry, you must wear a white polo or shirt without logos. Boys must be clean shaven with short, tidy hair.
Top tip: if you can, have water and/or boats in the background and do smile!
Personal details
This is where you list the following:
- Phone Number (in the international format)
- Email Address which must be easy to copy, sensible and professional
- Date of Birth
- Nationality (just state where you’re from – do not state the colour of your skin)
- Health – include “ ENG 1 ” (medical certificate which you will be required to obtain prior to accepting a job) and state if you’re a non-smoker and have no tattoos. If you have any visible tattoos then mention that here. A visible tattoo is one that is not hidden by a polo shirt and a pair of shorts.
- Languages – only to be included if you speak languages in addition to English
- Driving licence – if you only have a provisional or do not have one at all then delete this
- Current Location – there is no need to be too specific; UK or South of France is enough
- Availability
This is a really important section as it needs to encourage a potential employer to read the rest of your CV. Grab the reader’s attention in 4-6 lines showing them your personality, transferable skills and experience. It should be very specific to you and focus on why you have decided on a career in yachting. State what position you’re looking for and what your end goal is (eg I am looking for a position as a deckhand with a view to one day becoming an officer of the watch ).
Maritime Qualifications
List these in order of importance – eg if you have your Professional Yachtmaster Offshore then state that first with your STCW next. List your qualifications as bullet points in two columns in order to save space and for a better overall appearance. Make sure you include all your qualifications relevant to the yachting industry including any dinghy or diving qualifications you’ve obtained previously. If you have your commercial drone pilot licence then include this here. Only put down the top level of each qualification so if you have Day Skipper , don’t include Competent Crew .
Maritime Experience
This section gives you the opportunity to drill down on all of your water-based experience. Include all your previous sea time whether it be from courses, employment, work experience, holidays or voluntary work. Put a new heading for each entry and write a few lines about each one.
Previous Employment
Include all your previous non water-based employment, work experience or voluntary work here. Think about the transferable skills that you have gained from those experiences and bring them to the attention of the reader. You might have skills in hospitality, manual labour and time-management, have a strong work ethic or good organisational skills. Perhaps a previous job required you to be well-presented and with the ability to deal with high-net-worth individuals. These are all important and transferable skills to focus on in this section.
You do not need to go into great detail in this section. Include your university/school/college, the year when you obtained your degree/A levels/BTEC/GCSEs and a summary of your grades (eg 7 GSCSEs grades A-C). Note that GCSEs does not require an apostrophe! Put your most recent achievement first.
Hobbies and Interests
Even though this section will be towards the bottom of your second page it is another very important section where your potential employer can learn what type of person you are and whether you’re likely to be a good fit for the boat or company. Make sure you sound interesting and as someone who’d be a good addition to a crew or team. Just to reiterate, you must not lie!
You should try to list 3 referees here with their contact details (name, position, company, telephone number written in the international format and email address). DO NOT say “available on request”. If you already have a written reference then you can add this as a third page to your CV. The quicker an employer can get hold of your references, the more likely you are to get offered the job. Do make sure you’ve asked each of your referees for their permission and let them know that they might be contacted. Previous employers, instructors or teachers are ideal.

Breaking news, cristiano ronaldo gets handsy with girlfriend georgina rodriguez in steamy yacht vacation photos.
It’s safe to say Cristiano Ronaldo and his girlfriend, Georgina Rodríguez, are enjoying their lavish vacation in Saint-Tropez.
The Portuguese soccer star, who currently plays for Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr, and the influencer took a dip in the French Riviera on Saturday, as seen in new photos.
One photo showed Ronaldo grabbing Rodríguez’s butt while she got out of the water and onto a luxury yacht.
![yachting cv picture yachting cv picture](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/09/soccer-star-cristiano-ronaldo-stunning-88795010.jpg?w=683)
The 30-year-old model looked beautiful in a white thong bikini.
Ronaldo, 39, who dove into the ocean, sported dark swim shorts.
The couple was seen talking together and sipping beverages in white cups.
![yachting cv picture yachting cv picture](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/09/georgina-rodriguez-shows-off-incredible-88802334.jpg?w=683)
Last month, Ronaldo fueled rumors that he and Rodríguez tied the knot in secret when he called her “my wife” while filming a promotional video for the fitness brand Whoop.
Ronaldo’s publicist told Page Six at the time,“I cannot confirm nor deny that Cristiano has married Georgina. I simply do not know.”
![yachting cv picture yachting cv picture](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/09/georgina-rodriguez-shows-off-incredible-88802294.jpg?w=1024)
Ronaldo and Rodríguez met in 2016, when she working as a sales clerk for Gucci in Madrid and he stopped by the store.
In her Netflix reality series, “I Am Georgina” she said they would run into each other at social events, and he eventually asked her out to dinner.
Ronaldo and Rodríguez made their first public appearance together at the FIFA Football Awards in Zurich, Switzerland in January 2017.
They made their relationship Instagram official that May, and welcomed their first child together, Alana Martina, six months later on Nov. 12, 2017.
Ronaldo and Rodríguez share 2-year-old daughter Bella, whose twin brother died at birth in 2022.
In 2017, Ronaldo welcomed twins Eva Maria and Mateo Ronaldo via surrogate.
He has a son Cristiano Jr., 14, from a previous relationship.

LONDON (AP) — Hewlett Packard Enterprise said Monday it won't drop its U.K. claim for damages against the estate of British tech mogul Mike Lynch , who was killed when his superyacht sank last month.
Britain's High Court in 2022 ruled mostly in favor of the U.S. technology company, which accused Lynch and his former finance director of fraud over its $11 billion takeover of his software company Autonomy. Hewlett Packard is seeking up to $4 billion in damages and the judge is expected to issue a decision on the final sum soon.
Lynch died when his yacht, the Bayesian, sank in a storm off Sicily on Aug. 19. His widow, Angela Bacares, could now be liable for the damages.
Months before the sinking, Lynch was acquitted in a separate U.S. criminal trial of fraud and conspiracy charges in the deal.
Hewlett Packard initially celebrated the costly acquisition of Lynch’s company in 2011 but quickly came to regret it. The company said in a statement Monday that it had “substantially succeeded” in its civil fraud claims against Lynch and Sushovan Hussain, the former finance director.
“It is HPE’s intention to follow the proceedings through to their conclusion.”
However, the judge in the U.K. civil case has already ruled that the amount payable in damages would be “substantially less” than the company is seeking.
A spokesperson for Lynch's family declined to comment.
Lynch and his daughter Hannah were among six passengers who died when 56-meter (184-foot) luxury yacht went down. One crew member, the boat's chef, also died, while 15 people survived the disaster. They had gathered on the yacht to celebrate Lynch's acquittal.
Officials initially said the yacht was struck by a tornado over the water, known as a waterspout, but the weather phenomenon was re-identified as a downburst. Prosecutors in Italy are investigating the captain on possible charges including manslaughter.

Alain Delon Dies: Iconic French Actor Was 88
Watch on deadline.
Born June 8, 1936 in Philadelphia, Darren was a student of famed acting coach Stella Adler, for whom he commuted to New York regularly. He starred as surfer Moondoggie (landing the part despite being unable to surf and being a weak swimmer) in all three Columbia Pictures’ romantic comedy Gidget films, from the 1959 original through subsequent sequels Gidget Goes Hawaiian (1961) and Gidget Goes to Rome (1963).
In addition to acting, he made a name for himself in the mid-1960s as a singer, after proving his vocal chops by performing the Gidget theme song, with hits like “Goodbye Cruel World” and “Her Royal Majesty.” It was this background that helped him land a portrayal as the holographic lounge singer Vic Fontaine in several episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine in the ’90s, serving as a revival of his music career.
DEADLINE RELATED VIDEO:
He continued in Hollywood in the TV realm, with popular series like the 1966 sci-fi show The Time Tunnel and ’80s police drama T.J. Hooker , alongside William Shatner .
After working in television for decades, he moved into TV directing, working on shows like Melrose Place and Beverly Hills, 90210 in the nineties and aughts.
He is survived by his wife Evy, sons Moret, Christian Darren and Anthony Darren and five grandchildren.

Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper Share Passionate Kiss on Yacht Trip
![Video player poster image preview for Gigi Hadid arriving at the 2024 Met Gala](https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/gigi-hadid-and-bradley-cooper-are-seen-on-february-27-2024-news-photo-1725202310.jpg?crop=1xw:0.77453xh;center,top&resize=1200:*)
On Saturday, Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper were photographed sharing a fiery kiss on a luxury yacht off the coast of Palmarola in Italy. The couple have been traveling with friends Margot Robbie and her husband, Tom Ackerley, as well as Cooper’s seven-year-old daughter, Lea, who he shares with former partner, Irina Shayk. The group was also joined by actor Benedict Cumberbatch and his family for the day of fun on the water.
In the photos, Hadid wore an orange bikini before wrapping a large towel around herself. The model’s chic blonde bob was wet and Cooper embraced her after they kissed on the yacht’s deck. He wore a gray shirt with no sleeves and green swim shorts.
The couple have been linked since October of last year and it has quickly gotten serious. Hadid first appeared in the company of Cooper’s daughter on Thursday, August 29, when the group arrived in Sardinia along with Cooper’s mother, Gloria. Hadid has a daughter as well, three-year-old Khai, who she shares with her former boyfriend, Zayn Malik. Cooper has reportedly met both Malik and Khai and everyone is co-parenting amicably.
Cooper and Lea were at Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island house party last weekend as well, with Hadid arriving afterwards. The actor seems to have befriended Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce through Hadid. The quartet have spent some time together traveling in California and in France during Swift’s Eras Tour.
A source told DailyMail.com that Hadid and Cooper have had conversations about going to the next level in their relationship.
“Bradley has already determined that he is going to ask Gigi to marry him,” the insider claimed. “This is not even a question. They discussed family and marriage early on in their relationship. They have been committed to each other and to their plans for some time and now it is just a matter of when.”
The source added, “Bradley only has a couple of projects currently in production but has nothing lined up after that. He wants to take some time away to focus on this and give Gigi the attention and love she deserves.”

Cristiano Ronaldo got hot and heavy with Georgina Rodríguez on a yacht in St. Tropez after sparking marriage rumors.

Rodríguez gave her beau a playful look as she stared back at him while climbing onto the vessel.
![yachting cv picture Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez pack on the PDA during their romantic getaway in St. Tropez.](https://pagesix.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/09/soccer-star-cristiano-ronaldo-stunning-88795010.jpg?w=683)
She basked in the sun, wearing a cheeky white bikini and accessorizing with oval sunglasses, a statement necklace and several bracelets.
The brunette beauty, 30, pinned her hair back in a low bun.
As for Ronaldo, 39, he sported olive green swim trunks.

The couple relaxed on the yacht’s lower deck while drinking beverages out of white coffee mugs and dangling their feet in the water.
They appeared to engage in an ongoing conversation while Rodríguez rested her hand on the athlete’s shoulder.
At one point, Ronaldo took a daring dive into the ocean as Rodríguez sat and watched.

Rodríguez was later seen wearing a white wrap over her swimsuit, while Ronaldo added a black baseball cap to his vacation look.
In July, Ronaldo fueled rumors that he and Rodríguez privately tied the knot while filming a promotional video for the fitness brand Whoop.
“Most important thing is, it’s not what you do, it’s you have to do. When I’m not training in the club, I like to work with my wife at home,” he said.
“I can push her and she can push me, too.”

According to Daily Mail , Rodríguez called their first meeting “love at first sight” during an interview with El Hormiguero in Ma rch 2023.

Rodríguez got candid about the loss during her “I Am Georgina” docuseries last March, saying, “My priority right now is my family and my children. I’m so happy and so thankful.
“Life goes on. I have reasons to move on and be strong.”
Ronaldo is also a father to his 14-year-old son, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., and his 7-year-old twins, Eva and Mateo, whom he welcomed via surrogacy with an unnamed woman.
