Chief Engineer 160’ Private SY- US, Caribbean, Canada

Are you an experienced Chief Engineer looking to join a beautifully built yacht by Alloy?

Do you hold a B1/B2 visa and available within 2 weeks for a long handover?

Join this very professional, state of the art sloop and its fun-loving crew as it sails the US, Caribbean and beyond.
The Chief Engineer will be extremely hands- on and will ideally have additional electrical/electronic ability. A/V and satellite experience is a plus.

The yacht houses a single screw, CAT driven engine around 1000 horse power

Being private the yacht is flexible and open on COC, and will be hiring more on experience, attitude and longevity.

The Chief Engineer will have a natural flare for the Ocean, will be well presented and enjoy a relaxed interaction with the guests and owners.

Will have a strong 2nd engineer for support + an experienced captain who has been with the vessel for 7 years +

A thorough extended handover will be given with the outgoing chief engineer who is leaving on excellent terms.

The yacht is couples friendly (when other positions arise, but not at present)
