Sailboat Rigger

WHAT IS THE JOB?
KKMI is looking for an experienced sailboat rigger for our Point Richmond location. Position involves the building, installing and repairing of standing and running rigging and deck hardware, stepping and un-stepping of masts, line splicing, and swaging. You must also maintain updated knowledge of product trends.

KKMI fully respects and appreciates the specialized skills needed for this position and is willing to offer an attractive compensation package for the right person.

WHO ARE YOU?
You are someone who loves working on boats. You have great technical skills with a strong work ethic. Maybe you’ve been rigging your family boat for years. Perhaps you’re a freelance rigger and are tired of being on call for clients 24/7 with no benefits like paid time off or medical insurance. Most importantly, you can relate to how precious boats are to their owners and would take pride in repairing them properly.

WHO IS KKMI?
KKMI is the premier boatyard on the San Francisco Bay. We have two locations: Sausalito and Point Richmond. Of the many things that are important to us, three things stand out:
1. We are proud to be an integral part of the boating community.
2. We place a huge amount of importance on being industry leaders in promoting best practices as they pertain to Safety, Health and the Environment.
3. We are family run and we treat our team members like family.

WHY KKMI?
Working around boats is, to put it honestly, pretty cool. There is something about participating in crafting, fixing, and improving boats that just feels meaningful. A majority of us understand that concept: some of us caught the bug after we started working here, many of us were drawn to the boatyard specifically because of our passion for the sport. We provide a positive work environment, good pay and benefits, great people, and experience doing something you love.
