Starter Crew Package
€299
Everything you need to walk onto the dock ready. Professional CV, personal roadmap, onboarding call, and the network setup that turns you from outsider to inside track.
7–10 business days from intake to final delivery.
The problem
Most new crew arrive on the dock with a generic CV, a random pile of certificates, and no idea who to speak to. They spend two months learning what a good week should have taught them.
The outcome
Within 10 days you have an industry-standard CV, a written career plan, a working WhatsApp network, and a professional who knows your case if you get stuck.
Who this is for
- You're new to yachting and want to start correctly first time.
- You've done a few courses but don't know what to do next.
- You want a professional CV and a plan you can execute yourself.
Who this is not for
- You need day-to-day hand-holding — see Career Launch or Premium.
- You want us to book courses and handle your visa — see Career Launch.
