About this listen

Here are some stories from a sailor who worked on superyachts for many years. These true stories from my experiences will entertain and amaze you. You won't believe what many of these people get up to on these massive boats, and most of the stories are about the crew as opposed to the owners!


These stories are entirely true. The names of those involved have been changed to protect the guilty and innocent alike; everything else is as it happened.


The names of boats and crew cannot be divulged for obvious reasons.


Working on Super-yachts or Mega-yachts is a great job. You get paid well and get to travel, but it can also be an absolute nightmare. Working and living in a small area with people you may dislike or even hate.


One thing is for sure: some good stories will come out of it!


Please enjoy.

  • My First Work On A Super-yacht

    My First Work On A Super-yacht
    Jun 11 2025

    This is the story of my first work (daywork) on a superyacht (megayacht). I started out working on a large sailing yacht in Antibes (South of France). The job I was given was not easy or comfortable. Listen and see how I got on and how I started as a professional sailor (yacht crew).

    Daywork is how most sailors (yachties) get started and this was my first taste of yachting life.

  • Accident On The Super-yacht - The Toe

    Accident On The Super-yacht - The Toe
    May 27 2025

    This is a story of a serious accident that happened on a superyacht (megayacht) that I was working on one summer. Working on these big yachts can be very dangerous, and it is very easy to hurt yourself or someone else.

    Find out what happens to this poor worker and his toe. One minute he is doing his job, the next he is the centre of a medical emergency.

    Working as a sailor on large yachts can often be very interesting and makes amazing stories for people to listen to and be entertained by.

    The names of the people involved have been changed to protect the innocent and the guilty alike. All other facts in the story are as they happened.
