Life of a Yacht Stewardess & Deckhand: 3 Day Charter to The Bahamas

Here is what it's like to be a yacht stewardess and deckhand on a 120 foot yacht. Extensive amount of cleaning, cooking, and planning daily activities for the guests. Hope this gets you excited about getting into yachting!

[@nofalsemetal76]

if only I was 25 yrs younger I would have gotten into yachting as a deckhand and work my way up, did not really know about the industry then, until I stumbled upon. Below Deck looks like a great way for younger people to make some good money and go on from there.

[@meghanmargo]

yes it is the best job!!!

[@ralphowens4510]

Below deck isn't the best representation of working on a yacht. Just saying.

[@ltv..123]

Nice! Good behind the scenes.

[@BossTalkProductions]

Amazing vlog! You have an exciting life!

[@meghanmargo]

thank you, especially now that you're in it

[@manutdretrorever7z]

Great insight into what yacht crew life is like. Great vlog👍

[@meghanmargo]

yes yachting is awesome!

[@wildqtip6482]

Stick with this content. All the others have left to do boat tours. Or other things related but not what people originally started watching for. Like Tristen from super yacht captain. People want to see what it’s like to work on yachts. Hopefully you stick with it. Well done 👍 Even if it gets repetitive just keep posting

[@meghanmargo]

thank you so much that means a lot!! I will keep posting content like this and my other job as a flight attendant!

[@jacquelinemenard1603]

You can own a yacht like me Would you like to own a yacht 🛥️ too?

[@salt1283]

What a peaceful journey and always having a nice view before arrival. Such a hardworker of you 👍

[@meghanmargo]

thank you :)

[@dariussmith2954]

Thanks for sharing. You do a fantastic job of it. I hope I can find a crew as committed as you when my yacht is built

[@vannesanatalia5335]

Can you hire me??

[@iainsanders4775]

Me too..

[@maureensantiago5036]

hi meghan! lovely tour video! im a greenie in a yacht industry looking for my first job. im a filipino and currently live here in south of france but unfortunately until now im still looking for my luck 🙏🏻

[@iainsanders4775]

Quite exciting! Especially foaming along at high speed from close to sea-level. Much more fun than those polished, overproduced mega-yacht vids. (Not that I'm deserting them!).

[@hatin_the_thinker]

Good effort and nice try to film as much as possible. I know it can be difficult with clients onboard and some can be real chops. Hope u enjoy it. At times those guest can be really filthy and expect others to just clean up their mess. Irks me as it's just respect

[@sportgoofy1975]

Nice boat . She sure does go eh ? Whatcha figure she was cruising at ? 15 -20 knots?

[@user-wt2ds4gw4b]

Me gusto tu video saludos desde rio de janeiro brazil

[@andrewdaniel1053]

Wanted to use one of those small sail boats but not sure lol

[@dwozniak1]

Looks like it starts with her in the crew quarters -- is it really that noisy in there (I know the quarters are probably located near the engine room)?

[@lazarofagundes164]

Great job!! I just have a doubt, are the chairs and cushions on all yachts loose? Is there no danger in rougher seas?

[@alamos8]

On rough passages the furniture is usually covered up and cushions stored

[@windycurrent]

Love the video. Nice editing. Just make sure slow down when moving the GoPro. Fast movements can give viewers a headache.

[@panpiper]

That's a big yacht for only three crew. Or did I mis-read that? Having a crew 'workout' area is quite unusual in most yachts. Very nice. Good money in exchange for hard work sounds very fair to me.

[@siennamiel-wb7nl]

There’s 4 guests at the moment this is a business trip

[@jacquelinemenard1603]

[@laureanoantonio8471]

What are the courses that I need to be working on this?

[@andrewdaniel1053]

Have a good night

[@gabornicu7058]

Is it difficult for a beginner to get a job in the yacht industry??

[@jacobyrassilon]

Waiting for the day when they stop all of this Gestapo covid nonsense. Anyway, nice video...very interesting and informative. So do you travel around to various yachts or are you contracted to just one?

[@meghanmargo]

hey! thanks for watching! I am a freelance yacht stew so i work on different boats all the time!

[@andrewdaniel1053]

You are cool

[@sadiq6615]

Hi Good day! May I know how much the salary of fitness trainers getting in yacht..

[@alamos8]

[@andrewdaniel1053]

Hey could you tell some of your friends to sail to trinidad and pick me up I owe you if it's possible

[@jimmyjackkkk9770]

[@wa210]

[@pmahato967]

[@dashkaidash]

[@michaelschneider3446]

[@andrewdaniel1053]

I like stew lol

[@matnasiruddin-lp1qj]

apply to deckhand for indonesia

[@andrewdaniel1053]

Maracas bay trinidad

[@ericloo4150]

It would help if you could slow down panting the camera. It’s dizzy watching and can grab the attention to details.

[@meghanmargo]

thanks for the advice

[@enalofficial9034]

Hi....

[@alamos8]

In some.part of the video you are working dressed in a tight and quite short miniskirt. It looks uncomfortable, or inconvenient, for working on a ship... Was that mandatory?

[@meghanmargo]

YES it was mandatory

[@alamos8]

@@meghanmargo Oh, and it's even of the type that rises on its own as you move around. Steep stairs, low furniture items, etc, seems somehow out of place for working. In other vids of yatch crewmen, girls were wearing that type of clothing that seems a miniskirt when viewed from the front but it is really a short pant. Seems much more convenient for that purpose. This is an intersting life, and I want to believe well paid, but you need to be mentally prepared to make some sacrifices like sharing a small cabin, extended duty periods, variable shifts, far from family/friends... But indeed interesting

[@mrabrasive51]

Cant hear a freaking word!

[@adayinthelife5772]

Pretty easy job lol. Not much work involved at all really.

[@meghanmargo]

haha well not everything is shown, you're constantly catering to people...serving the 1%. I wouldn't say it is challenging mentally but it is demanding long hours

[@alamos8]

Yes it is. There ara lots of tasks to be done, either daily, weekly or monthly, on all kind of checklists

[@andrewdaniel1053]

I can meet you maracas bay

[@JohnJohnson-vi8eu]

No people?

[@meghanmargo]

I think it would be disrespectful to put the people in it, but maybe if it is someone I work for often

[@jacobyrassilon]

Pretty sure it is a privacy issue....some yacht owners have their crew sign NDAs, so it's nice that they let her film the oat at all.

[@meghanmargo]

@@jacobyrassilon no i didnt but i thought it would be rude to include them

[@panpiper]

@@meghanmargo You are absolutely right to not include other people. You could easily get fired for including video of other people if you took it without their permission. Discression is HIGHLY important in the yachting world. A lot of people who own yachts or book charters are people with big targets on their backs either from stalkerish fans or criminals who might be able to take advantage of knowing where they might be.
