Financial Strategies for Superyacht Crew
“Money is boring. It’s what you do with it that counts. Your financial plan is in service of your life goal.”
Yachting Financial Solutions (Ireland) DAC is an independent financial services company based in Ireland.
We only deal with superyacht crew and offer a full suite of services and products designed especially to suit your needs.
The best way to get the most out of the services we offer is through the YFSOL Partnership. We strongly believe that investing without a purpose is a wasted opportunity. Investing based on a plan with a clear goal and timeline is far better. So while you can get individual investments from us, we encourage everyone to take a Big Picture approach to both their life and their money. Make a plan that will get you to your ideal, independent life. Then invest your money to achieve your goals.
Strategies & platforms for yacht crew
You can invest your money through a number of financial platforms into a range of investment strategies and funds. All of which meet the requirements of the offshore lifestyle of superyacht crew. And you can make small regular contributions or one-off larger investments.
Let’s bust some jargon.
Platforms
Investment platforms provide the regulatory infrastructure needed for you to invest. They are maintained by independent third party institutions. These are internationally recognised custodial companies with solid reputations. You already use a financial structure in your everyday life: your bank account. It is a structure your bank provides so you can receive, send and spend money. An investment platform allows you to channel money into investments.
Strategies
Investment strategies put your money to work. There are as many strategies as there are stars in the sky. They come in a whole range of risk profiles (low to high), and you can invest in anything. We work with you to match the right investment strategies to your financial plan.
Our role
We work with you to create a life & financial plan. We help you identify the best investment strategies to make your plan a reality. And we also liaise with the investment platforms and tell them what to do on your behalf. Then we monitor both the health of your investments and the success of your plan, providing you with a constant feedback loop. That allows us to consult together and make any adjustments required. Finally, we mentor and motivate you so that you can see your plan through to the end.
Here are some sample strategies we’ve helped clients with. (Yes, you can invest in anything.)

“Whatever your life goal, there is an investment strategy (or better yet, combination of strategies) that will get you there.”

Don’t Waste Your Million
As yacht crew, you have a remarkable opportunity to make yourself financially independent—if you do some sensible financial planning.
You’re between 25 and 45 yeas old, and earning around $50,000-100,000 per year, depending on your position. (Maybe even $250,000.) Your daily living expenses are zero. And your accommodation, work clothes and food are all taken care of. You don’t have a daily commute to work. And even better, you probably don’t have to pay income tax.
So after 10-15 years in yachting, you’ll have earned anywhere between 500,000 and 1,000,000, taking pay rises into account. (Maybe even more!) And you won’t really have had to spend a penny.
BUT the majority of yacht crew leave yachting with nothing. They manage to spend their entire million.
So their golden opportunity to build a financial foundation for their ideal, independent life is GONE.
We’ve made it our life’s work to help you keep your million. In fact, forget the million. We want you to leave yachting on your terms and into your dream life. So you can live the rest of your life doing what you love.
Money is boring. It’s what you do with it that is exciting. And what is more exciting than the freedom to pursue your dreams?
