Critics Review

Brendan O’Shannassy, a renowned captain of superyachts, pulls back the curtain on this amazing hidden realm. Entertaining, authoritative, and fascinating.– Joseph Finder, New York Times bestselling author of The Oligarch’s Daughter

A book filled with honesty, valuable advice and plenty of reality – every yacht captain, head of department, recruiter and manager needs to take a highlighter, red pen and Post-it notes, to ensure all levels of crew read certain toolboxes, as part of their future path to success.– Martin Redmayne, Chairman & Editor in Chief of The Superyacht Group / The Superyacht Agency

Brendan has a unique background, which has given him a wealth of knowledge and experience. This book contains gold that would be of interest to all crew, from the most experienced Captain, down to ‘green’ crew taking their first steps in the industry. Ranging from real-life anecdotes to the ‘Key Takeaways’, there is so much of value to learn and absorb within this book. I highly recommend it to anyone working within the industry. * Tim Clarke, Director of Quay Group *
