What employers look forFrom the Jet Ski Instructor guide
Captains hire people who are calm with nervous beginners and firm with confident ones. A background in watersports centres, lifeguarding or rescue boat work counts for a lot. You need STCW Basic Safety, an ENG1 and RYA PWC Proficiency at minimum, and the instructor qualification makes you far more useful. Mechanical sense matters, because a ski that will not start in Bonifacio cannot be sent back to a dealer that afternoon. Clean visas and a tidy, guest-facing manner complete the picture.
