Warren the next one has a Eurocopter on it,
There is very little foreign labour at the top to be honest as it is a very personal buisness where you are constantly rubbing shoulders with some of the richest people in the world so they like English speaking people,
Coming in with an OOW is fine but there is then the maintance side of things to learn for up keeping the boat but it is good money
