Sam Doyle worked on Bono's yacht 'Cyan' for a number of years
Sam Doyle, 31, was born in Kirkdale. After leaving school, he worked in a number of hospitality jobs in Liverpool city centre and on the Greek island of Zakynthos.
"I thought 'what am I doing?' It was like a spaceship to me having worked around a bar. I'd gone from town to working on a cruise ship with 4,500 people on." Sam said: "When I was there, a lot of people just transitioned into yachting. There was a bit more money, you got treated a bit better, that type of thing. As soon as I left, I started looking to get into yachts myself.
"I flew over there and then Barry took me under his wing and taught me yachting. I worked on Bono's yacht for three and a bit years. I met people like Paul McCartney and Tom Hanks - Paul McCartney is one of the nicest men I've ever met. About the work on board, Sam said: "It's good but it can be lonely. The yachts can be even lonelier, you're working with people who aren't very similar to you."It was a culture shock to start working among extreme wealth. I once walked down a road with Bono and Tom Hanks talking to them about Liverpool, I've gone from Kirkdale to that."
