Fancy a life aboard a superyacht? Apply right here

Students who may not be flush enough to buy their own superyachts can now at least learn to work on one.

Brett Nussey of the Superyacht Culinary Academy , with, from left, South African Boatbuilders Export Council chairman Bruce Teddar, academy trainer Sandra Jordaan, mayoral committee member James Vos, V&A Waterfront CEO David Green and Stuart Loxton of the Ocean Star Sailing Academy.Super Yacht Culinary Academy owner Brett Nussey, who also runs his Stir Crazy Cooking School from the V&A premises, said he planned to expand into other areas of superyacht training.

“The V&A have been working on the oceans economy programme for the past 18 months, and the initiative to set up a training centre seemed to fit exactly within their programme,” said Nussey. “As a city, we want to create the right kind of environment for businesses to grow, especially in sectors where there is potential for impressive expansion,” he said in a statement.

The academy, overlooking the Synchrolift dry dock, is fitted out to resemble on-board facilities. “Students therefore become accustomed to working within the confined spaces of a real yacht,” the academy said in a statement.
