Matelot is crewed full time by a Skipper, Chef, Mate and Stewardess. They have full responsibility for the yacht whether undergoing refit work in the yard, deliveries across the Atlantic or whilst guests are onboard. Both the Skipper and Chef have worked for the owner for over five years and have been with the yacht since she was purchased. Having been involved in all pre purchase details and the current refit, they are perfectly placed to ensure it meets the high standards to be expected on charter. All the crew onboard atelot are trained through the STCW Basic Safety Course covering fire fighting, sea survival and first aid.
