Who's behind Boat Gigs
I'm Tim, a sailor who got tired of chasing yacht deliveries through three Facebook groups and a chain of WhatsApp messages. Boat Gigs is the platform I wanted to exist: a quiet place where boat owners and captains can find each other and just talk.
Right now you can WhatsApp me directly when you post, no support queue, no chatbot, no offshore call center. Just me, replying when I can.

Honestly the first time hiring crew didn't feel like a gamble. Reviews, real names, one-click accept.
