Program Description
This is a hands-on yacht refit project on a 27m motor yacht in the Mediterranean. I’m looking for practical, reliable people who can help with plumbing-related tasks such as water systems, tanks, drains, and basic installations.
You can expect clear explanations, realistic daily goals, and a safe working environment. I work step by step and plan tasks in advance.
In return, I expect responsibility, basic technical understanding, and respect for the yacht and shared living space. Accommodation onboard is provided, meals/basic costs are covered, and you’ll gain real experience in yacht refit work and life at sea.
