The National Yacht Club is currently looking to complement the pool of casual boatmen available to work in the Club's boathouse.
The work carried out by casual boatmen, under the supervision of experienced staff, is wide ranging and both demanding and rewarding in equal measures.
Casual boatmen are involved in all the boathouse duties, ranging from the cleanliness and maintenance of the platform to ferrying members to the moorings to assisting with crane lifts to maintaining club crafts (dinghies, keelboats, RIBs, launches etc)
The boathouse operates 7 days / week all year round, 8h / day in the winter and 12h / day in the summer, with a break around Christmas / New Year.
Casual boatmen, mostly university students, tend to stay with us for many years as hours worked can be quite flexible and tailored to individual requirements.
If you interested in joining the pool of casual boatmen, or even inquire for further details, please fill in the form here

ALL dinghies must be removed by Sunday 9th April 18:00 at the very latest.
Please use the form below to apply and pay. The Boathouse Sub-Committee and Sailing Manager reserve the right to control who pays and applies. As space is at an absolute premium, priority will be given to dinghies actively taking part in either the Turkey Shoot,...
Following the last few years where many boats have either changed hands or been bought or changed their winter sailing plan, we would like to have a clearer understanding of the potential demand for Dinghy Winter Platform Parking for Junior activities and...
