The Caribbean season is almost here, and that means it’s time for water toys, rum punch, and a few well-earned nights ashore. From Painkillers in the BVIs to cucumber refreshers in Antigua, we’ve rounded up the cocktails and bars every yachtie should know. 🍹✨

French-Caribbean chic with your toes in the sand.

Winter in the Med looks very different for yacht crew: quieter marinas, cooler days, and plenty of time in the yard. But the off-season is also the best chance to reset, save, and build your career.

Think STCW refreshers, ENG1 renewals, Yachtmaster, AEC 1 & 2, WSET wine courses, Silver Service, and GUEST-accredited interior training. Training providers like UKSA, Bluewater Antibes, Palma Sea School, Warsash Maritime School, YachtCrew.uk
, and The Yacht Stew Academy all run great programmes - including an in-person Chief Stew CoC this winter.

And if you are job-hunting, this is the time to stay visible with agencies such as Quay Crew, Yotspot, Bespoke Crew, Seven Seas Recruitment, Viking Crew, and Wilsonhalligan. Make sure your CrewPass badge is on your CV so recruiters instantly know you are verified and ready.

We know it’s hard to keep track of what’s valid, expired, or acceptable abroad.
So we built an AI-powered checker that:

✅ Reads and scans your STCW, ENG1 and others
✅ Flags potential issues or a mismatch in information from your profile.
✅ If anything is wrong, it’s flagged for manual review by our internal team
✅ Translates foreign certificates into English

Our team is there to manually confirm your profile and make it ready to impress you captain so you don't have to lift a finger.
