| Aspect | Live In Deckhand Yacht | Deckhand Yacht |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | CPR/First Aid, STCW certification, maritime safety training | CPR/First Aid, STCW certification, maritime safety training |
| Work Environment | Resides onboard, full-time, close quarters | Typically day shifts, may stay onboard or commute |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Common in private and charter yachts, full-time crew | Used in similar settings, often part-time or seasonal |
Both roles require similar certifications and work in the yacht industry. The main difference is that a Live In Deckhand Yacht resides onboard full-time, providing continuous support, while a Deckhand Yacht may work on a day basis or with flexible schedules. The choice depends on whether you prefer full-time residence onboard or part-time work.

Full-time
Re-posted 22 days ago
We are looking for an experienced, friendly, and dependable crewmember to join our world class team. Our yacht Sirara is a recently built upscale USCG-inspected passenger vessel (COI) for private events on the San Diego Bay. Applicants must be experienced in managing events (with a strong preference for boating experience) and have a customer-oriented attitude and enjoy interacting with guests.
Job Requirements:
Prior crew/deckhand experience on a charter boat / yacht is highly desired. A captain's license or in the process of getting one, would be a strong bonus. Applicant must show ability to legally work in the US and have a valid passport.
We offer competitive pay and flexible schedules including base hourly pay and guaranteed gratuities. PLEASE NOTE: We operate a drug free environment and this position requires participation in a random drug test program (DOT 5-panel test, including Marijuana, Cocaine, Opiates, Phencyclidine (PCP) and Amphetamines.)
About Legacy Cruises and Events:
We offer a licensed and inspected yacht, operated by USCG-certified captain and crew, for private events, setting sail around the Bay, providing with our partners superb all-encompassing personalized food, beverage, and entertainment services and exclusive first-class experiences to make any special event unforgettably spectacular. Our flagship vessel, the Sirara, is modeled after European luxury river cruisers and offers two decks of incomparable yacht party event space for up to 85 guests, complete with a bar, full-sized high-end bathroom facilities, and state-of-the-art entertainment facilities.
