DOVASTON
Drawing On A Wealth Of Experience
Fred Dovaston served as a yacht captain for 25 years. For 11 years he was captain and manager of a luxury 53 metre yacht, which cruised the World with 11
professional crew and logged more than 130,000 nautical miles. When he started the agency, in February 1996, he knew, from first hand experience the needs
and necessities of the industry's employers as well as those of the employees. This wealth of knowledge, combined with today's information technology, has
allowed the company to become a World Leader in the placement of professional yacht crew.
Expanding To Meet A Growing Market
The company offces opposite the Marivent Palace, Palma are equipped to
handle the increasing demands of this very specialised service.
With a team of 12 staff we are able to offer a very professional and
personal service in the rapidly growing crew placement market.
Making The Most Of Technology
Requests for our services are coming from all corners of the World. With
today's communications technology, handling placements on the far side
of the globe is as simple as handling them on our own doorstep.
E-Mailing C.V.s and coloured photographs to clients is no longer a technological novelty.
Realising that sifting through hundreds of C.V.s every day would be an
inefficient way of making a selection, we have developed a unique
database specifically geared to matching crew with specific job
description criteria.
We Have Our Finger On The Pulse
The world of professionally crewed yachts is relatively small, where
news travels fast. It is within this world that word of mouth has been our
best promoter for recruiting professional crew. Since opening our office
in February 1996, over 25,000 captains, mates, engineers, chefs, service
staff & deckhands of all levels and nationalities have registered with us.
Our Candidate Selection Process
Through our structured interviewing process we are able to build a
detailed picture of each individuals qualifications,level of abilities,
character and personal needs. Although these interviews are a time
consuming process they are the key to our success.
We are a pro-active business that continues to develop and improve its
service to meet the exacting demands of the yachting industry.
