“If you want to hire the best possible Captain for your yacht then Tim & Simon at Quay Crew should be the first people you call. I have been working with them since 2015 and they have placed many Captains on yachts I manage from 20m up to 107m. Their knowledge of the Captain market is unrivalled. They know who is great, but more importantly, who is terrible (and unfortunately there are lots of terrible captains out there). They have access to Captains no one else does with whom they know well and have excellent relationships with. The insight they can provide is incredibly useful too regarding salary, packages, market intelligence, the hiring process and improving your retention on board. ”

“Thanks for your expert assistance in our recent search for a captain. Our operation and itinerary dictates that any prospective candidate has to be a particular type of person. Further, we always expect longevity from our senior crew and this can only be achieved through a very focused selection process following an initial brief. Your approach was to listen carefully to our brief and then carry out a very focused search for the right fit. In the end you gave me two CVs, both of which were perfect and very hard to choose from. I’d be very happy to recommend you to any other prospective clients.”
