Captain Wanted
This is not a job posting.
It’s a calling.
Bubbles isn’t just a vessel. She’s a floating gathering point. A classroom. A dance floor. A soapbox for dreaming bigger. As her captain, you’ll lead raft-ups, regattas, and spontaneous moments of chaos that turn strangers into family — all while helping us make a real impact in the lives of kids across the islands we visit.
SV Bubbles is looking for her next captain. Someone to champion her through the Caribbean, keep the sails full, the anchors honest, and the energy high wherever she drops hook. This role is about more than moving a boat from island to island. It’s about carrying forward the spirit of Captain Alex Rust and using adventure as a force for good.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re not searching for the most polished sailor in the room. Alex never was.
We’re looking for someone with:
-
Adventure in their veins
-
You say yes more than you say no. You believe the best stories start where the plan ends.
-
-
Leadership without ego
-
You can take charge when needed, step back when it’s right, and make everyone aboard feel like they belong.
-
-
A deep respect for people and place
-
Every country Bubbles visits matters. Every kid we meet matters. You understand that the mission comes first — always.
-
Regattas, raft-ups, late nights, early mornings, broken gear, big laughs. This boat is alive. You can roll with it.
-
-
The heart of a teacher
-
Before each regatta, we host Youth Days to get local kids out
on the water. You don’t just tolerate this — you lead it. You
show kids the horizon and help them see what’s possible.
-
What This Role Really Is
You are not just captaining a boat.
You are an ambassador of Captain Alex’s legacy and the Chasing Bubbles Foundation.
That means:
-
Setting the tone everywhere Bubbles goes
-
Leading with generosity, curiosity, and humility
-
Balancing fun with purpose
-
Knowing when to open the throttle — and when to slow down and let the moment land
Alex believed that adventure could change lives. This role exists to prove him right, one island at a time.
If you’re looking for a cushy gig, this isn’t it.
If you’re looking for a life-defining chapter — welcome aboard Bubbles and the Chasing Bubbles Foundation's family. You'll have our full support every step of the way!
