Running from 10 to 15 September, the Cannes Yachting Festival consistently delivers one of the finest displays of yachts in the world. The lineup also tends to include several world-class premieres from shipyards eager to present their latest designs across Port Vieux and Port Canto... BOAT takes a closer look at some of the hottest debuts of 2024 here.

When pursuing a career on board a yacht, it's crucial to be mindful of the overall size of the yachting market. The global fleet may not be as large as you expect, with only 6,270 superyachts over 30 metres (98 feet) in length worldwide, and most of these vessels are in the 30 to 40 metre range. This means that job opportunities can be more limited, especially for positions on larger yachts. If securing a role is taking longer than expected, remember that the number of available yachts is finite. Larger vessels, in particular, represent a smaller portion of the market, which can lead to fewer vacancies. If you're focusing only on yachts of a certain size, be prepared for increased competition, as you may be limiting your opportunities. This is why it's important to work closely with your recruiter, listen to their advice and let them guide you through the market and opportunities that will build a successful, long-term career. Patience and persistence are key. Keep refining your skills and qualifications, stay active in your job search and regularly update your profile to remain visible to recruiters. By understanding the size of the market and managing your expectations, you'll be better prepared to navigate the competitive nature of the yachting industry.
