Become A Yacht Chef — The Course

You can already cook. This is the other 70% of the job.

Turn Craft Into Freedom

You don't have a money problem, you have a "where did it go" problem. Restaurants pay $400 to $4,000 a month for 13 to 16 hour days cooking someone else's menu. Yacht chefs earn $48,000 to $160,000+ a year, plus $300 to $1,000 a day in charter tips, with zero rent, zero food bills, and half the year genuinely off when you get to a rotational position.

✅ 40 video lessons across 6 modules, plus 36 PDF handouts and lifetime updates — filmed on board 68m and 88m charter yachts, so you see the real job, not a studio

✅ Seven lessons get you hired. The other thirty-three are what happens once you are on board: watch duties, cabin inspections, getting stamped in and out, onboard accounting, preference sheets, provisioning, 24-hour menu changes, plane food, and the rotational handover that decides whether you get asked back

✅ That second part is the part you cannot Google. The only people who know it are already at sea, and nobody writes it down. I did.

✅ 14+ years of my mistakes already made for you, in the right order, so you walk up the passerelle looking like you have done this before

✅ 36 PDF handouts, and they are not filler: a Provisioning Order Calculator, a real Guest Preference Sheet, the Galley Handover Guide, a 14-Day Crew Crossing Menu, the Contract Red-Flags Checklist, global provisioners list, CV builder, salary guide, certificate and visa guide

✅ Access to the BAYC Galley Chats community — ask questions any time, from me and other chefs on the same journey

✅ Future course updates and new lessons included at no extra cost

✅ Yours for life

“It has allowed me to view everything from a larger perspective and better plan out my time. I cannot express how thankful I am that you’ve created a resource like this.”
