Except who do you work for. Or the name of the boat. Apart from that anything.

You work on a super yacht?

What's it like? A day in the life?

Not like below decks. Professional, dedicated and enthusiastic individuals from all backgrounds, united by a passion for adventure and self development. Hard work, but offers opportunities to experience things not available to most. Essentially a 9-5 without guests, and 24/7 with them.

How many days a year do you get inconvenienced by having the owner onboard.

Apart from keeping it ship shape what else do you do with the time you're waiting for guests to be onboard?

For us 30-60 days. Maintenance, upgrades and cleaning mostly. Training with 3rd party providers too.

Ever had someone blag their way onboard?

Is your cabin big enough to swing a cat, or are you bunked up with several sweaty sailors?

Ever had one of the YouTuber yacht people do a tour?

I quite like seeing what those yachts are like inside (would much prefer having the means to own one, mind!)

Ever been in Monaco for the GP?

Has it ever been scraped or crashed into another boat or harbour when parking/leaving.
If so what were the consequences? Gulag?
