Superyacht Crew Wellbeing in New Zealand
A vessel performs as well as its crew. Life on a yacht is rewarding, but it can also be demanding, long hours, confined spaces, and time away from home take a toll on both body and mind. At Catalano Shipping Services (CSS), we take a holistic approach to crew wellbeing, supporting smooth yacht operations while keeping your team healthy, connected, and at their best.
Our Wellbeing Approach
Friendly Agency Support
Our approachable Catalano Superyacht Agency team has an office by the Auckland marinas. Crew are welcome to walk in and chat in confidence anytime – we’re here to listen and help.
Health & Mental Health Support
We connect crew with trusted health professionals, including physiotherapists, psychologists, mental health counsellors, massage therapists, and wellness experts, alongside confidential counselling and stress management guidance. We also arrange ENG1 medicals and STCW bookings, so your crew stays certified and supported throughout the season.
Movement & Community
Crew can enjoy Yoga for Yachties, sunrise yoga, Pilates, and social coffee on the dock throughout the season (no, you don’t have to be able to touch your toes!). Hosted by ex superyacht crew and our wellness partner @puraaurayoga, it keeps crew active, connected, and energised.
Crew Experiences
Curated onshore and offshore activities that help crew recharge, explore, and maintain balance between work and life.
