Deckhand - Temporary / Seasonal - Min exp 6 years - €25.000-30.000 - General (Europe)
We are seeking a skilled and hands-on Boatswain (Bosun) or experienced Deckhand with a strong technical background in the maintenance and operation of classic wooden yachts. The vessel is a beautifully 65-foot wooden sailing yacht, moored in a private marina on the Tuscan coast.
The position is seasonal, requiring commitment for approximately six months each year (typically April to October). The successful candidate will be responsible for overseeing day-to-day upkeep, including deckwork, brightwork, varnishing, traditional rigging, and technical maintenance. A solid understanding of wooden boat construction and restoration techniques is essential.
We are particularly interested in candidates from the UK (optional), as British seafarers are often highly experienced with classic yachts and bring valuable traditional skills to the role.
