This is what the AEC Course looks like from the inside - and yes, it's a lot more interesting than you might think.

If you're looking to move into superyacht engineering, AEC1 is where that journey begins. AEC2 takes you further. Both are MCA Approved and run at Galileo in Phuket, Thailand. Which, let's be honest, is a much nicer place to study than most alternatives.

Upcoming Course Dates:

🔧 AEC1
- 25–29 May 2026

When a Master Mariner says your training delivers that means something.

Peter Harrison, Master at James Fisher Ltd, completed his training with Galileo Maritime Academy and praised the professional standard of course delivery, the balance of theoretical knowledge and hands-on practical skills, and the positive learning environment our Phuket location provides.

This is exactly what we set out to achieve - training that doesn't just tick a box, but genuinely prepares you for real responsibility at sea.

What people picture: beach all day, jungle survival, and melting politely in the heat.

What you actually get: structured mornings that wake you up properly, training that reflects the real job, and a professional marina not a wildlife documentary.

Yes, it’s warm. Yes, there are bugs (they keep to themselves, mostly).
And yes - the beach is there… just not instead of the work.

Afternoons? Yours. That’s when the “holiday” part quietly begins.

The reality isn’t worse - just more relevant to the career you’re building.

🎓 Graduate Success Story | Natthanicha "Kik" Dachthongchai

From STCW to Chief Stew on a 50m+ charter yacht. That's the Kik story.

Kik started her journey at Galileo Maritime Academy, where she built the foundations the superyacht industry demands - hospitality, safety, and onboard operations to international STCW standards.

Guided by Galileo instructors, she graduated, stayed on to deepen her practical skills, then landed her first placement aboard a 60m+ private yacht.

From there, she went on to lead interior operations as Chief Stewardess on a busy 50m+ charter yacht - responsible, consistent, and fully in her element.

Proof that the right training leads to a very real career at sea.
