Apprentice carpenter
As the second-biggest yacht-builder in the world, HanseYachts AG has not only one of the largest boat carpentry workshops but also its very own training workshop for carpenters at its headquarters in Greifswald. We are unique in the industry for just how many types of wood we use. We have more than 100 people working in this area on interiors for our sailing and motor yachts. This includes seating for the saloon, the galley (the kitchen on a boat) and the berths. The high quality of our manufacturing is the result both of skilled craftsmanship and of precision machinery such as CNC milling machines.
Over time, our apprentice carpenters learn about all sorts of varieties of wood and how to work with them, both by hand and using machinery. Wood joining techniques are an equally important part of the apprenticeship. This calls for good spatial visualization ability and a sound command of basic arithmetic, as well as decimals, fractions, exponents and cross-multiplication.
The apprenticeship on our premises is accompanied by a teaching module at a vocational school in Wolgast. Our apprentice carpenters also attend courses in Rostock.
