Beyond The Surface: Offshore Careers and Real Talk with Stu Sutcliffe

Episode 3 The Truth About Money - What Commercial Divers ACTUALLY Earn


Listen Later

Ever wondered what commercial divers really make? Forget the inflated numbers and half-truths you see online - this episode breaks down the REAL money in UK and North Sea diving.

I'm covering:

  • Actual day rates from inshore diver up to offshore sat diver
  • What rotations really mean for your annual income
  • The brutal truth about taxes (spoiler: HMRC takes a massive bite)
  • Hidden costs that eat into your earnings
  • Why "high day rates" don't equal "rich"
  • The golden handcuffs that trap experienced divers

Whether you're considering diving school or already in the industry, this is the honest financial breakdown nobody else is giving you.

No BS. Just real numbers from someone who's lived it.

Next episode: Run ashore stories you won't believe. Trust me, number 4 is way more entertaining then all these numbers!
