What employers look forFrom the Technical Yacht Manager guide
Management companies in Monaco, Antibes, Palma, Southampton and Fort Lauderdale hire for this role. They want a senior marine engineer, usually with a Y1 or Y2 ticket or a merchant Class 2, and several years as chief on large yachts. Some come from naval architecture or a shipyard project background instead. You need to write a clear report, build a spreadsheet budget and argue with a yard in calm, firm terms.
