    I certainly have had some wonderful gifts. One owner paid 9,000 k for Seattle Ballet school for my daughter. No it was a 1929 classic called MV/ OLYMPUS. it's since changed hands and I'm retired. My daughter is a lawyer in NYC.

    Been on all sides of the bonus deal and agree, skip it and just make sure payroll runs on time.

    I ALWAYS provided presents to my crew and staff but through out the year. Every port we visited I paid for a night out for the entire crew permitted by the captain....thats not my call for safety reason. Transport, food and drinks (alcohol within reason). My family and guests were aware and they needed to take care of themselves on that night. My crew turnover rate was almost zero.....except for family emergencies.

    an owner is simply a money machine at this level. a good salary is all that is required and you hope the owner isn't too much of a criminal so that your boat is taken care of in bristol condition and not seized. you are paid on time for the hard work you do.

    Both my children (age 30 and 28)work on large sailing yachts. Both are paid a 13th month bonus (dec). Tips anything from 5-10k dollars for a typical 10/12 day charter. Plus many other perks including free flights, healthcare etc etc. they do ok!

    I remember being in the Navy boot camp during Christmas; it was the first time I was away from home on Christmas. But I survived and graduated the next month.

    We always receive unique and thought-out individual gifts for each crew. It's not expected by any of the crew, but it's nice to feel appreciated during the holidays. 🛥🤙

    Anyone who expects a bonus doesn't know the meaning of the word.

    I have worked / managed in the hospitality industry for most of my life...year end bonuses are the standard and are usually (in Asia where I am based) MINIMUM 1 month depending on your length of service and is more typically up to several months salary.
    Can't even imagine just being happy to get paid a salary....absolutely NUTS!
    Although I have heard such stories before....time to find a new yacht (owner) to crew!

    2-3 years ago, I spent Christmas trying to cross the Dover. A 30-36 hours trip, took me almost 70 hours.

    I have had the whole gambit of gifts from nothing; to bottles of olive oil that we picked on the Owners' estate and as we aat anchor for the Xmas period I was allowed to bring my gf onboard for 2 weeks and use a guest cabin; one owners gave us shoes from a well known shoe retailer; another gave a combination of leave and/or a bonus; one gave us small bonuses every visit. The longest I have had guests was 5 months non-stop, one family gave bonuses and the other family gave us nothing, but we did get rides in the helo.

      Very rare to be allowed to bring anyone onboard for a visit.

    I'm guessing when you were in the military you had Christmas 'postponed' 😊 I had 12 consecutive Christmases in the army where I was working, on duty or on call. And that wasn't unusual, and of course being in the military there is no Christmas bonus, no extra pay, leave or any time off in leu. I agree with your comments on Christmas bonuses, better just to be paid fairly and on time.

  • @davidedgar2818

    I would assume that this is a standard practice. I've seen this in high end restaurants too. The owner does occasionally will give a bonus but it's rare in the restaurant side.
    I'd think that it might be more of a compensation payment on ship crew.

    Interesting to learn that working on a boat is a risky matter (Christmas postponed, no regular salary). These things are no gos and will ruin the rep of any employer.

      Was in the Yachting industry for 16 years - nobody ever missed a pay day.

    • @eSysmanSuperYachts

      It is an exception when crew do not get paid on time. The talk here was reference to the bonus, and whether or not we were getting it.

    Do most owners even know their crew members? or are they anonymous workers like waiters at a restaurant? Do owners actually choose/hire crew or is that all done by the yacht management company that provides a "turn key" yacht that is oprational and staffed to the onwer?
    I guess Putin would vet who gets t work on his yachts, but does that mean he would play cards with them or just simpy treat them a robots that serve him?

    Yiu dontbwantba oresent, youbwantba christmas bonus, whatever size it may be. When bosses give gifts its gift cards to stores neither of you use. Inmean, even ten percent over the current check is a gesture.

      North Korea. It's a big bonus if u get off the boat alive, it's considered a huge bonus.
