Yacht Crew Receive Guest Complaint |  

09:18 for the complaint.

I really like the way you respond to the complains of the guests and how you show us that the mood on board as a crewmember is not always perfect. It's amazing to see you manage to do you job as a deckhand and make this amazing honest content at the same time! I really enjoy watching your content! Keep it up!!

Dad always told me, don't piss off the people that make/serve your food. Just saying...

I am a yacht detailer for 20 years now and I totally get that when people say it's dirty when they are absolutely clean but there are those people in the world for sure.

Keep the great videos coming! I know it can be like any other job but at the same time you are incredibly fortunate to have such an amazing opportunity and I love living it out vicariously through you! Cheers from Texas!

Worked on yachts. Can really relate to this. Great honest review!

A lot of great people making this venture happening! Awesome work everyone...

I spent a bunch of years living in submarines. Much of my time was spent cleaning; the captain still wasn't happy. Oh well; 50 years later it's no longer a problem.

Jared, you all are awesome and keep up the good work. I can relate to the complaints you all receive. I deal with that stuff almost everyday.

You're a very smart well mannered young man, that will do very well with your time here on this wild ride.

Great piece here .... a terrific reminder that it will never be all unicorns and rainbows. 👍👍 crewing is hard work!

Most important in learning jet drive boats is when you don't have throttle on there is NO steering!

Hey Jared, thank you so much for taking your time to share these videos. I live in St. Maarten and I'm going to start my STCW course this month. Your insight has really helped to realistically visualise myself in this career field, and I want to send my thanks for your transparency, and giving us insight into the work you do.. Funny coincidence because you mentioned Sea Owl.. she's been docked here for a couple of weeks. You can never miss that green paint. Cheers and keep up the great work.

Nice content and great filming and commentary. Keep them coming Jared!

Cool channel! thx for a brief view of the fantasy/scifi world of yachting :D

Love the videos dude. Hospitality isn't a job, it's a way of life and an art! Big love 👊😎

Your videos are great and really, props to you. I would never be able to work like that with the feeling i'm "below" someone and staying away from friends/family. I really hope you earn decent/OK salary for all that insanely hard work.

I have been chartering yachts for many years now. I started when my 3 children were very young and now they are grown with kids of their own my wife and I charter with just us two most the time. We do two trips a year Spring time and again each far and we have also done some last minutes trips. Every time, I mean EVERY single time we have had nothing what do ever to be wrong with our boat. NEVER! Nothing, they are always so spotless and looks as if we were the first humans that stepped foot in the boat. The food? OMG! I can't say enough, the crew was always so nice, kind and spoiled us to no end. Not even one of the children ever had a complaint one while on the boats. Anyone with children knows that is impossible. The crew always worked their fingers to the bone making it that way too and we knew that and respected that. We made our children say good morning to everyone of the crew, thank you and please. We fell in love with everyone of the crew we ever had. So how anyone could be nasty to the crew is beyond me. The boat being dirty?? I have very hard time believing that in the least bit. There are some people so ungrateful and so miserable in life they will always find something to complain about. I am so grateful to get on the boats and hear those motors start up and leave the world behind for a week that I didn't notice if anything was wrong or not.

Thanks for keeping the content real!

Hi, very interesting! Love your videos. The skill for sailing almost an art. The equipments are beautifuls, the anchor thing all in chrome finished... Im mearning few things already. Keep the good work and more videos. Good luck

Big time vlogger in the making! Love your vlogs mate. keep it coming. Peace ✌🏼

Your videos are amazing!!! Thank you :)

I totally agree with you about it never being perfect enough. That seems to be the case after a few days with certain guests onboard. There is always more to do but there comes a point where enough is enough

My experience with a grumpy customer was in 1985. A retired QANTAS pilot was always a pig when wanting to withdraw money from his cheque (check) account. He would not join the tellers' queue but phoned beforehand to have him and his wife taken into my office. He insisted on being called "Captain". One day I was under the pump and when he was leaving, I saluted him. The dumb #$%^er thought it respectful and saluted back. The staff saw it and it was laughed about for days.

Loves your attitude, even with a complaint!!!!

Awesome. I know this is actual work, but seems like a dream job for someone with the youth and energy to get it done.

Your videos are fantastic and very educational, thanks

Oh gosh. Anyone that owns a boat, in my case only a 23-1/2 foot small cuddy cabin model, knows that their boat can be incredibly clean in the evening and by morning all parts of the exterior covered in bugs stuck to everything. Especially anywhere with humidity as at dew point in the cool eve the bugs land, stick, by morning the dew dries and caked on, stuck on bugs everywhere! On active boating days I spend at least two hours cleaning bugs alone. I’m sure you have a small crew responsible for a heck of a lot more square footage than me. I imagine a very hard work day crewing as you do.

Great Jared. You did a very professional job of giving some insigths on day to day life on a yacht.

Well done J, love the videos Craig

Thank you. As a future boat owner this is good info.

Good to know I’m not the only one in a thankless industry. I make sure to make my appreciation known for good service and hospitality

Beautiful, i love these types of videos, really cool, also the length of the video is really good i enjoy 10 min to 15 min videos more though i understand that might not always be possible, keep it up Jarred

Just found your channel and love the content.

Aaaaa maze Zing! Loving these vids! Love from Australia 🇦🇺

Bro ur content is awesome keep up the great work👍

REALLY liked this video! Nice!!

Just started watching, hello from SoCalifornia.

More Carrie!

Great video! Well done👏

Mate your videos are great..telling it just how it is... And yes there will always be something that a guest or someone who is picky, most wealthy people especially the older ones are very demanding. Been there done that. Anyway you all look professional look forward to more videos

Great honest Vlog Jared. Best one yet :)

I'm really enjoying this channel. I actually wouldn't mind being a yacht crew as long as the owner treated the crew with respect.

Awesome Jared! Keep´em coming! :D

"I WENT ON A BOAT AND I WAS EXPOSED TO OUTSIDE AND IT GOT WAVY AND EVERYTHING WAS SALTY AND BUGS WHERE EVERYWHERE. - 2/10 - Customer review probably I'd rather shit in my hands and clap than entertain that complaint. Good job Jared, clean that boat!

My bru, I've watched so many of your vids and you just inspired me to go work on Yachts. Going to apply for courses in Cape Town soon. My only worry is that I lack confidence, but I'll do my best. Keep on making awesome vids!😁

Another great video thanks Jared!

Looking very cool...Happy Holidays to you...

I just watched below deck last night. My favorite tv show

Cool video. Thanks for sharing.

Guest complaints are part of the crew's life on board..some people are just hard to please...even our own boss sometimes 😆

I worked the yacht life as crew for years. I miss the industry. Loads of fun. I highly recommend people to get into it. Whole new world.

Thank you. Good luck

Hi Jared, Have you ever run aground? what it´s the draft of the yacht and when do you start to get worried about dept? Thanks, great video!

First time we've run the tender this summer. Right lets just jump in it and try and start it as we drift

Sick intro dude! Keep it up!:)

The reason no one goes to the foretop is because no one is supposed to go there. Ok ask me why. The radio antennas and the radar give off radiation. How long have you been a crew member? The only time you should visit that area is when everything is shut off for maintenance. If you notice body parts turning green and falling off, you will know what caused it.

thank you for sharing your great experiences and pictures. Great content. Which instruments for controlling a super yacht are actually the state of the art in the yachting industry? Are names like feadship also the yachts with the best controlling instruments and which producers are the best?

awesome video as always, gives me the drive to keep filming, its not easy haha, Croatia is stunning

Those days happen to the best of crews, but I have loved watching your editing just keep getting better and better with the music and transitions, really smashing it.

Thanks for your candor Jared those not in the people business may find your last comments hard to understand but it is a fact and it's great to see your understanding and great attitude

Some people are so precious.

Lekker man. Geniet dit

In boating this chrisis always happen (within a week). When the initial happines (due to a new experience, new place, beauty of nature, ...) starts to fade and gets balanced (like everything in life needs to balance) with negativity you get such days. Very often there is also heavy drinking involved as well, so the landing is even rougher. I've had the experience and I'm never going on a boat whith anybody else but my wife and my children if it's more than a daytrip.

That intro was slick!

I worked as a safari guide / driver in Africa for many years so I know exactly what you are talking about. No matter what they pay , cheap trip or luxury safari some people (not all) will find something to bitch about. I think that the more expensive and comfortable a trip is the more trivial whines you will get. I took many rough basic camping trips where the conditions became apalling with rain , duststorms , stuck in mud mechanical breakdowns etc. and they loved the experience.So for every one of those punters I once again ( very humbly) say thank you.

Again a super awesome vid, boytjie!! Particularly liked the "Shaka" Hahahaha. It's such a saffa thing! Like boerewors and biltong (which of course you don't eat) REALLY enjoying your vids, keep 'em coming! :)

Great video! I really enjoyed the brief jet boat tutorial. Out of curiosity, does it usually take 4 people to retrieve the tender? :-)

Omg you were in my country 🍾🍾🍾

Very nice vlog thank you for sharing. Sincerely Adventures of David and Aaron

so many Saffa;s in the industry - my wife was Chief Stew on big boats for 10 years.

Maybe they didn't like the way you "flaked" the anchor chain !🤣🤣🤣

Great content

If i owned a boat..id treat my crew as family,sure they work for you but thats no reason to mistreat them.And my guests would do the same.A happy crew would do more for you and actually enjoy it.Everybody wins.

You should make a video about what to do if the yacht starts sinking or if you have to evacuate in general and things like lifeboats

watch this guy blow up in 1-3 months, unique nice channel! unique in the way that i don't know another yacht crew youtuber! nice videos man, been watching them for a while now and decided to sub! And further good luck in your youtube career, carry on doing what you do and don't forget to make some videos, because you've got a lot of potential!

Bugs on the boat, and this champagne is warm darling 😌😜

Hey I live near where you anchored at the beginning of the video, let me know if you need something when you come near Dubrovnik, Croatia again :)

Was that tender running before you threw lines :D

Great video. I am from Croatia

So true so true

6:47 ¨yea..uhhh, the same as driving with a steering wheel...........¨

Loving your videos man, what do you do when you're not working like in your break/ down times???

Ya know Break means take apart and Brake means stop. Ya me either.

When the price is so high people are going to expect perfection.

Just be careful of what you say my friend. You never know who may be seeing your channel (guest, captain, management agency etc) and would not take it as you intended to be or even see it as an insult to them die that anyone this days can search the owners name on internet by knowing the boats name. It could affect your wonderful career. Best regards from a high seas chef in Europe. Stay safe.

Shweeet boetie, it's lekka to see the shit side of things too. Trusting my years in the hospitality industry will stand me in good stead when I get on the boat. Cheers

Do you rinse the tender with fresh water before you close the garage?

Best ever, nice views 😉 lol

I think you are a great crew member

Love watching your videos. One question: how many crew are on board this boat and what roles?

125K. Nice! Thnx, Jared!

Do you have officers onboard as well or just the captain, if so what ticket does he hold?

ty Jared excellent job editing. ....idk shit tho.....

Man one day I will go on a mega yacht charter. I'll have to stick to a cruise ship until that day comes haha

been working on superyacht as 2/O more than 10 yrs.. love your videos.. got lot of videos during our trip but forbidden to post it online.. PRIVATE =) have a safe voyage and enjoy the season

Thank you....

Does the owner get more crew on board during the summer months? Or is it generally the same 4-5 people?

Your videos are fantastic! Well done mate.

Actually these days come to everyone no matter where you work. The important thing as Captain is as long as you are satisfied the crew did their job and the crew know you have their back then all is good.
