Welcome to the annual Superyacht Survey (2022) brought to you by Yotspot - The leading jobs board in the yachting industry..and Faststream Recruitment Group.

A total of 556 Superyacht Crew took part in this survey.

It hasn’t been business as usual in the superyacht industry. In 2020 and the first half of 2021 yachts and crew were heavily impacted by the global COVID-19 pandemic. Many yacht itineraries were put on hold and some Captains and their crew found themselves facing periods of unemployment. Some crew decided to remain at home and look for alternative employment. Those with a secure yachting job, who may have previously looked for a new opportunity, became more hesitant and were often hunkering down favouring stability during this time.

As we enter 2022, superyacht itineraries are nearly back to pre-pandemic levels and gaining huge momentum again. The industry is busy and Captains are looking to attract the best crew to join their teams. However, the priorities of crew members have shifted during the pandemic, and we wanted to see how this would affect the responses to our survey this year. Specialist superyacht recruiter Faststream Recruitment and industry-leading job board Yotspot have collaborated for the sixth consecutive year to survey superyacht crew and gain a unique insight into the views, thoughts, and feelings that these individuals have about the industry they work in.

Enjoy the read.
