The job board for yacht & boat crews

Yemplea matches boat owners and charter companies with verified crew — captains, stewardesses, engineers. AI skill matching, nautical cert checks, seasonal contracts. Starting on Spain's Mediterranean coast. Free to try.
Hey Product Hunt!
We built Yemplea because hiring boat crew in Spain was still done through WhatsApp groups and word of mouth.
Skippers, charter companies, and shipowners had no real tool — and crew had no way to showcase their certifications or find seasonal contracts in one place.
What Yemplea does:
- AI-powered matching between crew and employers (captains, stewardesses, engineers, deckhands)
- Verification of official Spanish nautical certifications (PPER, STWC-ISM, PNB...)
- Seasonal & day-work contracts — not just full-time
- Bilingual ES/EN platform with iOS & Android apps
- Covers Ibiza, Mallorca, Barcelona, Costa Brava, and the full Mediterranean coast
We're a tiny team, launched in beta 6 months ago, and already have 1,000+ crew profiles and real job placements. The niche is real — there are hundreds of charter companies in Spain that still can't find qualified crew for the summer season.
If you're in the nautical world, or just curious about niche job boards with AI matching, we'd love your feedback.
Happy to answer anything!
