- Section 4 dives into questions of captaincy: communication and crafting a superyacht life well lived.
-Section 5 comprises of an invaluable toolbox of advice and techniques for crew at all levels from boat handling to briefing teams.
-Chapters also feature '10 Dos and Don'ts' boxes, as well as insights from other high-profile professionals within the industry. This is the definitive insider's guide to the normally shielded world of Superyachts, and clearly sets out what crew need to know to progress and succeed.
