Marine Advisory Services

Some owners need a full management solution. Most don't. They need someone who has run yacht operations before, who knows what a crew structure should look like, what a refit actually costs, and where flag state and insurance requirements catch owners out.

Our advisory capability is built for that conversation.

Our marine advisory services include

• Vessel selection and acquisition support

• Structuring for holding and maintaining the vessel

• Working with yacht managers, crew managers and specialist recruiters globally

• Shore-based compliance programmes

• Maintenance and refit programme management

• Worldwide cruising logistics and itinerary planning

• Coordination and introduction of specialist advisers

How we add value

The real cost of a poorly run yacht rarely comes from one decision. It shows up in refit overruns, unclear crew accountability, weak maintenance planning and compliance issues that surface at the wrong time. We help owners bring discipline, structure and accountability to the whole operation.

We engage to:

• Bring direct, senior operational experience to real vessel decisions

• Work alongside existing captains, managers and advisers, not around them

• Give owners a single point of accountability for the whole operation

Experience-led, not product-driven

Our marine work is selective and relationship led. We do not offer packaged yacht management programmes. We engage where our experience is directly relevant, and we act as adviser and coordinator, not operator.

This service is particularly suited to:

• Owners buying their first vessel

• Owners chartering as well as using a vessel privately

• Owners seeking commercial vessel solutions

• Owners unsure whether their current operation is being run well

• Clients who want one point of contact across the whole operation

• Owners cruising globally and needing operations managed across jurisdictions
