Debbie
Originally from England, I have now been living on the Cote d’Azur for 27 years ! I worked in yachting as a stewardess then chief stewardess, so I know exactly what you are going through whether it be dock walking, looking for a crew position or indeed doing a training course.
I am always here to advice before your job interview

I began my career as a professional engineer in merchant shipping and shipyards before joining the luxury yacht industry. As well as managing our crew house I am currently the chief engineer on a locally based, large luxury yacht. I have 30 years experience in the industry and am of course happy to advise and support our guests. My yacht qualifications include a diploma in Nautical Engineering and a Class 1 ticket – but I am also known as the pizza king! When you attend one of our sunny, pizza parties by the pool, you can judge for yourself !

I enjoy getting out on a road bike in my free time and living only a 5 minute walk from our local beach, it’s a pleasure for us to be able take a paddle board or one of our canoes for a trip around the bay finishing off with a swim before dinner and you are more than welcome to join us !

Debbie and Franco run the Crew House!
