- Top 10 INSANE Salaries of Superyacht Crew Members
Welcome back to Yacht News!
While working on a superyacht sounds glamorous, in reality it can be anything but that. The global news publication company ‘Insider’ polled superyacht crew members to get an inside look at life on board.
When asked what working for a millionaire or billionaire is really like, they agreed on a few things, like long hours. Many superyacht crew members wake up before dawn to start their day, which typically involves a lot of cleaning and catering to the requests of owners and guests. But while some superyacht owners are demanding, others are less, so it really all depends on their personality.
Some crew members said that owners and guests are more like regular people than you'd expect. Informed employers recognize that in order to attract the top level of talent and experience for a particular role, one of the strongest influences they have is the salary they can offer.
To stay competitive within the yachting industry you have to offer competitive yacht crew salaries that reflect the current marketplace. And in order to do this, you have to know what the current market rate is. In this video you will discover the Top 10 INSANE Salaries of Superyacht Crew Members.

2000K a month?? That's 500 a week for a job that's 7 days a week 12 hours a day. That's a fat nope for me.
That's why it takes better people than any John Doe off the street. It's often 8 hours a day (4 on, 8 off, rinse & repeat) aside from charters and/or when the owner is on board. You're also not having to pay for rent, utilities, food or an automobile and you have lower taxes. That's also why most yachtees are non-Americans, because $2k a month is more in their homeland than it is in the US.
EDIT: In addition, these salaries listed are off by 10-20%. They guy didn't do his proper research.
The chef is way more, entry level is at least 4,000 Euro,
Head chef on a 120m will be on 12-15k Euro.
If you take into account that these salaries include room and board and can get generous gratuities on top of the salary they're actually very high paying jobs. But they can also be very intense jobs.
100%. Most people underestimate how though these jobs often are.
If you include that you’re basically on call 24/7 and constantly sharing work and private space with colleagues, the pay isn’t that great. The only time alone is when you’re in the toilet.
As I understand it, most crewmembers work 8-10 months a year and take the rest of the time off. Yes, the work is hard but the pay is really good and can get you months off at a time. No, it isn't for everyone but for those who can deal with the work, it isn't a bad deal at all.
@@aerionistari6315 You understand it wrong. Not even close. It's super tough and very hard. 10 months away from home per year on a good year - We have had 10 months with ZERO days off, with many of those days in 16 hours per day range. Not all boats are charter - meaning no tips. There certainly are pros and cons with every job, but this industry always seems to get glamorized.
@@CaptChrisWade I agree with everything you said and that perspective was intended to be represented in the statement, "they can also be very intense jobs". Perhaps I did not emphasize that aspect of the job enough. But none of this negates my point. If you're a thrifty person, you can work this job a few years and bank some serious coin. Then retire from it with a nice nest egg. But, as you pointed out, be prepared to work your ass off during that time.
I work on yachts for a living and even the salaries you've listed in your video aren't up to par really, the entry salary for a deckhand regardless of experience tends to sit around 2500 euro as the industry minimum, most of the time if you are offered lower than that you either have to be desperate to accept the job or the boat isnt worth your time. Lead deckhands on bigger boats tend to make roughly 500 more than normal deckhands and bosuns tend to make 4-6k
Second officers tend to make 5-8 depending on the boat size and how much they want you
@calum5144 thank you for sharing your insights! What about the other salaries? For example the captain.
@@calum5144 hey calum do u have a contact ? I have few questions if you dont mind
What about the temporary crew (i.e. owner's professional boat girlfriend)? I saw an add that this truly, in all aspects of the word, stunning woman had placed on a website that is for such things. Her terms: First class travel to get to the boat and once there, the customer was to leave her alone until 10:00 am every morning. This was her time to workout, etc. Her price? $5000/week.
For having to kiss rich people ass all day every day those salaries are just okay
Why show video clips of cargo ship crews in a video about super yachts?
Great for the crew members those not bad salaries.
Is it true that merchant navy's deck officers have problems to get a job on yachts?
They are not the same industry. The skill set of operating the vessel is the easy part and very small piece of the puzzle on yachts. While it is possible to make a transition - it's not an easy one.
thats actually relativelly cheap considering the wealth that people owing these yachts have
Its my dream to work on yatch someday hope, just finished my contract last june 8 2023 as housekeeper, and room service, by the way i am from Philippines, hope you guys you can help me thanks 😊
First you might want to learn how to spell yacht😂
A boson is a subatomic particle. Did you mean bosun?
Salaries of an Cruiseship Captain starts at 15k €.
Sry for my english
1:29 EDISON yacht for sale very interesting boat 👍
I work in mega yacht
Bosun is pronounced as One word, landlubber!
24/7 work and 100K year. Impressive… not to me, at just 17:00 punch card and you may what ever. How about at the boat😮. Bunkbed ,see same seaguls from yesterday, or jogging in shitty marina. Wi-Fi may or not😂
I like how a lot of these video clips are either from cruise ships, freighters, or other RUclips channels. Did you pay to use any of these? You definitely didn't credit them. If not, stick with stock video.
Hey
good salaries
@Lovemore Danga good to hear from you! What is your favourite job on a superyacht?
i would love to own one in few years time
So where's the insane salaries? Nothing unusual about the salaries mentioned. Quite frankly they're underpaid because they work long hours seven days a week.
You should added that charter crew get a large amount of tips, although they work for it.
@Colin Chaffers good point!
Insane? $10k a month is $120k per year... Are you saying this is insane because it is so low in relative worth of the super yacht they're responsible for? Because $120k per year may be a lot of money to someone making $25 an hour... But Someone with that level of credentials and experience frankly is worth a LOT more than $120k to $150k a year..
This is salary this doesn't include tip which could be over 1000 per week. And includes room and board. Soo all together 120 may look more like 200 to 250 a year
🤣🤣 chill brother… only 18 percent of individuals in America makes over 100k a year , a only little over 34prrecnt of households make over 100k.
But you’re right brother, it’s a whole “lotta edumacation” and sacrifices for 120k.
So based on the stats I assume only 34 percent knows what the average is, because those 34 percent would be the middle class. It’s sad I know.😢
@@Cmkbak1411Jesus, just let the irs know everything many..😂😂
You've got tips and depending where you are no tax and your living expenses would be basically zero. Not insane but being able to save 95% of your salary isn't bad at all.
@@lukewalker5111 If it were only that easy....
10 grands is not insane
Divide all of those salaries by 4.3 and subtract taxes and these salaries are not insane at all considering the amount of work and service these people do in their respective positions.
Don't pay taxes working offshore
Did a kid make this video, cause those numbers are low.
I would say you have limited knowledge of the industry when making this click bait, most senior crew on time for time rotation on 50m+ boats, charter tips add up quick. Salary posted on this video are on the low side.
OK 🧐⛰
