About Freelancer

The freelance marketplace built by yacht crew, for yacht crew

We're empowering yacht crew to take control of their careers by connecting them directly with freelance opportunities. Whether you're looking for work or have work to share, our platform eliminates the middlemen and puts the power back in your hands.

How It Works

Our platform is designed for yacht crew who work freelance. Whether you're a chef who can't make a charter, a stewardess with a gap between contracts, or a deckhand looking for daywork—you can both find opportunities and share work with fellow crew. It's crew helping crew, powered by a simple credit system.

Find Work

Browse freelance opportunities posted by fellow crew members. Apply instantly with your CV—no lengthy applications required.

Share Work

Can't make a charter or daywork? Post it for other crew to pick up. One credit gets your job seen by qualified freelancers for 30 days.

Connect Directly

Message other crew members directly through our platform. No agencies, no commissions—just freelancers helping freelancers.

Why Choose Freelancer?

Traditional yacht job boards are designed for permanent positions and full-time employers. We built something different—a platform where crew can easily share work they can't take, and find opportunities from fellow professionals who understand the industry.

Meet the Founders

After years of working on superyachts, we founded Frey Recruitmentto help crew find better opportunities. We saw how often crew had to turn down work or couldn't find reliable coverage. Freelancer is our solution—a platform where crew can easily share work and help each other succeed.
