Superyacht Career Entry Courses
Discover how you can build your very own successful superyacht career while traveling the world in luxury and style

At Galileo Maritime Academy we have the industry experience and network connections to be able to provide those looking for adventure and a lucrative career the quickest route into the exciting world of superyachts.
As Galileo crew candidates are highly sought after within the industry, the expectation from our superyacht partners is of a world class standard. To guarantee our partners expectations are met by those we put forward for vacant roles, it is essential to address the requirements of the industry along with the factors that stand before those with applicable experience and/or desire to begin a career as superyacht crew.
Getting Started on a Superyacht Career Path
The prerequisite for working on any maritime vessel over 24 meters begins with the STCW (Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping) 2010 Course, consisting of 5 separate modules. As our network of industry partner superyachts and recruitment agencies consist exclusively of vessels over 24 metres, it is mandatory to first have this qualification before application.
For those not holding an STCW 2010 certificate already, we at Galileo offer the highest calibre of STCW 2010 training courses available in the world, conducted using state-of-the-art facilities and equipment all accredited by the British Government Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA). For those in the maritime industry, the MCA accreditation is the gold standard and the only qualification accepted in all maritime nations.
To further separate your application from the crowd and to ensure that you have the necessary experience when being put forward for your first interview, we strongly recommend enrolling in our Superyacht Career Entry course, giving you the MCA STCW 2010 certification and the opportunity to specialise in one or two of the four entry level proficiencies for career entry positions:

Deckhand

Steward / Stewardess

Chef

Engineer

What To Expect
Galileo Training Experiences
Check out just some of the experiences you can look forward to when training to begin your superyacht career at Galileo Maritime Academy…

Jet Ski Riding
Part of our Superyacht Career Entry Personal Water Craft module will give you the chance to learn to jet ski, next to the beautiful mangroves of Mai Khao located right on the doorstep of Galileo Maritime Academy.

Wake-board & Water-skiing
Learn to not only waterski and wakeboard yourself, but to be able to teach others. Another part of gaining the skills to work onboard a Superyacht that is always remembered fondly by our crew trainees.

Island Adventures
Explore Phang Nga bay and the hundreds of islands located within. This exciting day out is part of your Superyacht Career Entry course. Learning how to navigate your way through this tropical landscape is an experience like no other.

Exotic Food & Drinks
No maritime experience in the tropics is complete without enjoying an authentic beach lunch with your fellow crew trainees.

Hands On Training
Our practical hands-on-training on board Superyachts located at Phuket Yacht Haven Marina will give you the opportunity to get a feel for what its like to be a crew member for the day.

Rescue Boat Sessions
Learning to pilot the fast rescue boat is a hair raising experience. Pilot her through the shallow waters of the mangroves and maneuver through the amazing seascape found outside Phuket Yacht Haven Marina, where Phang Nga bay meets the Indian Ocean.

Night Markets
A trip to Phuket is not complete without a visit to the vibrant night markets. Whether you want to pick up some gifts or try some of the local cuisine, this an experience in itself.

Private Swimming Pool

Beach Sessions

Fine Dining
