5.0 out of 5 stars this is how you get a job, 13 Jun 2003
By A Customer
This is a great book for people who want to join the yacht industry, but don't have a clue how. I wish I would have found it earlier, but since it is brand new, it is nearly impossible. It is worth every penny, and in the end it will save you a lot of money.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a find!, 12 Sep 2008
By Sharon Fishwick (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book was bought for my son who is 17 and eager to work on a yacht when he's 18 and can do the necessary training. For one who has disliked reading for the sake of it (school to blame) he has read it and enthused about it's reality every evening since receiving it. It has opened his eyes to the reality of sailing on yachts and super yachts despite which he is more enthusiastic than ever. It was recommended by UKSA after he had done a couple of courses and he can't wait to get back to do a crew training course with them.

5.0 out of 5 stars BIBLE FOR SUPERYACHT CREW, 19 Aug 2008
"This book should be renamed the 'Bible for Superyacht Crew'.... and should only be given to crew whom are worthy of this knowledge! I'm experienced though my partner is not, it is a great help to both of us". Simon Mayne
