New Yachts, New Opportunities

Next year, a bunch of incredible explorer yachts are set to launch. These yachts are not just fancy—they’re designed for adventure! They’ll take guests to remote and beautiful places in style. But they can’t run without skilled crew members, so there’s going to be lots of demand for hard-working, enthusiastic people to join their teams, says Boat International that calls itself 'The global authority in yachting'.

The South of France: A Yachting Hotspot

The South of France is still one of the most popular places for yachts in Europe. Think about iconic destinations like St. Tropez, Cannes, and Monaco—sunny weather, crystal-clear water, and a glamorous vibe that never gets old. Yachts keep coming here, which means there are always jobs for people looking to join the crew. Aesha Scott, Below Deck star and a Chief Stew, calls the South of France 'home of yachting'. Herself, she came to Antibes years ago and walked the docks to get a job.
