Chief Stew Testimonial
Dear Joy,
I am the Chief Stewardess of a 58m new build yacht currently located in the USA, and I’m emailing you in reference to the Crew Pacific Stewardess course.
Although I have never had the opportunity to part-take in the course, I have to admit, for ‘green’ stewardess, I do think the course is a fantastic introduction into the yachting industry.
It is not always possible for the Chief Stewardess to provide fully comprehensive 'on the job training', especially in circumstances like mine, being the Chief Stewardess of a large new build yacht.
The course gives potential stewardesses the skills and knowledge required within the yachting industry to fully understand their positions, what is expected of stewardesses, the challenges that lie ahead, and most importantly prepares them for the yachting industry.
I have been fortunate enough to employ several girls who have successfully completed the stewardess training course, and I must admit, what a joy it was to have them as part of my interior team.
When looking to employ a new stewardess I have to say, I would always chose a ‘green’ stewardess who has completed the Crew Pacific training course over a stewardess with a seasons experience.
Fortunately, my current captain also sees the benefit in having ‘trained’ stewardesses, so much so in fact, that our yacht would like to pay for our junior stewardess to part take in the course.
Thank you so much Joy and Crew Pacific. You make my job so much easier.
Best Regards
Jeszell Gooch
Chief Stewardess
