With over 20 years of experience – including her recent voyage to Scotland’s remote St. Kilda archipelago – Nerina knows that cooking at sea isn’t as simple as mastering recipes on land. The challenges are unique, the environments unpredictable, and the demand for skilled chefs is soaring.
Why Train as a Yacht Chef?
The industry is crying out for chefs who can adapt to life on the water. Companies struggle to find professionals who can both cook and navigate the realities of sailing – whether it’s provisioning in remote locations, working in a compact galley, or keeping meals gourmet while the boat rolls with the waves.
Nerina’s course will equip students with the essential skills to thrive, including:
- Provisioning on the Go: Learn how to source fresh, local ingredients in unfamiliar ports – just as Nerina did in Scotland, where venison, local beef, and farmed mussels became the stars of her menus.
- Galley Mastery: Cooking in tight spaces, with limited equipment, requires creativity and precision. Nerina will share her tricks for delivering high-quality meals under pressure.
- Local Knowledge: Research is key. Discover how to identify regional suppliers and seasonal produce to support local economies while keeping dishes fresh and exciting.
Why Lanzarote?
The island’s vibrant food scene and stunning coastal waters make it the perfect classroom. Students will gain hands-on experience, blending Nerina’s expertise with Lanzarote’s rich culinary offerings -think fresh seafood, volcanic wines, and farm-to-table produce.
Who Is This Course For?
- Chefs dreaming of a career at sea.
- Sailors looking to add culinary skills to their repertoire.
- Food enthusiasts eager for a new challenge.
Nerina’s passion for local, sustainable cooking shines through in every dish she creates – whether it’s venison burgers under the Scottish stars or an Italian feast anchored in a secluded bay. Now, she’s ready to pass on that knowledge.
