Whether you choose ‘Kamala’s Berry Surprise’, Donald’s Trumpian Punch’, or something stronger, please do drink responsibly. But whatever you do, don’t drink the Kool-Aid… 😉

Exciting opportunity for a sailing couple team on 82ft Oyster.

STARTING NOVEMBER 2024 - Exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic sailing couple team to run this newly purchased Oyster 825 as Captain/Engineer and Cook/Deck/Stew for one fast paced season of racing and private charters during winter 2024/5.

Ideally the new crew will join as soon as possible in Europe to get to know the yacht on her Transatlantic crossing in November 2024. In the Caribbean she will be participating in several regattas and cruising in ‘charter mode’ with private owning families and guests.

The group of owners are experienced sailors/racers so they will be very actively involved in the running and sailing of the yacht during passages and private cruises. The professional crew team will remain as a core of two and expectations of crew workload will fluctuate according to the demands of the program.

There is potential for the crew to stay on board if they are interested in the long term plans for the yacht which include the 16 month long Oyster World Rally, starting in Antigua 2026.

Requirements

Captain/Engineer:
• Yachtmaster Offshore (CE) minimum
( EXCELLENT SAILING EXPERIENCE REQUIRED)
• STCW
• ENG1
• AEC 1& 2 or excellent knowledge of yacht care and maintenance/engineering. Experience with maintaining systems on similar sized vessels.
• Excellent sailing experience

Chef/Deck/Stew:
• Sailing qualifications are preferred. Previous experience in a similar role on sailing yachts is key for this to work well.
• STCW
• ENG1
• Level 2 Hygiene
• Yacht charter experience preferred

For more detailed information, please contact Charlie - crew@oysteryachts.com

𝘽𝙚𝙡𝙤𝙬 𝘿𝙚𝙘𝙠 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙜𝙪𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙨; “𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩’𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙞𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙢?”

This is one of the topics explored by Marina Hyde and Richard Osman in today’s Q&A edition of the excellent podcast, ‘The Rest Is Entertainment’.

A listener posed the question, “Apart from the draw of being on TV, what is in it for the guests to book a yacht charter on Below Deck? Do they get a discount for possibly being portrayed as a nuisance and TV crew swarming all over the boat?”

Listen to the 5-minute segment here, with highly entertaining insights into the making of Below Deck and why anyone would be mad enough to sign up, let alone pay for the privilege!

ESTELA’s END OF SEASON PARTY IS THIS FRIDAY - AND YOU`RE INVITED!

The date is Friday 4th October from 18:30h `til late, and the place is *DiQue, Port Adriano*

The fancy dress theme is…

Poseidon’s Underwater Kingdom

In keeping with the Greek theme of this year’s edition of ‘The Y Yachting Itineraries’, we are celebrating the god of the sea, Poseidon, aka Neptune.

Many of you will long have ‘crossed the line’ and been initiated into the court of King Neptune, but this night we shall all enter as Pollywogs and emerge as Shellbacks!

Raid your ‘Davy Jones’ locker and rustle up any old subaquatic costume. Come as the mythical kraken, a mermaid, Aquaman, Jaws (yes, we know the shark’s name was actually ‘Bruce’), SpongeBob, or any person, object, or creature from the deep.

Let your imagination swim wild, and there will, of course, be PRIZES for the best costumes on the night! See you there!!

> Friday 4th October, 18:30h – late
> Venue: DiQue (formerly Blue Nest), Port Adriano
> Book your place on the coach from STP – Port Adriano – STP at https://bit.ly/ESTELA_Party2024
