The reality, in numbers
- Over half (53%)of superyacht crew say their mental health has deteriorated since entering the industry.
- 1 in 5crew members are currently experiencing poor mental health onboard, right now, on boats just like yours.
- 72%of junior crew leave yachting within 18 months. Not because they weren’t good enough. Because nobody helped them stay.
- 37%annual turnover among junior crew, one of the highest of any industry. This is not a personal failure. This is a systemic problem.
