Good to know
This is work on a boat rather than in a standard restaurant or hotel. You must be comfortable at sea, able to adapt to changing conditions and willing to take part in the general organisation and upkeep of the boat when required. Guests are mainly international visitors, so communication, professionalism, friendliness and attention to detail are very important.
