What is Yacht Management? Yacht Management to us means treating your yacht like it belongs to us. We familiarize ourselves with all of your equipment and systems in order to develop a Yacht Management Plan that includes an annual maintenance schedule and a list of components that should be regularly excercised. The Plan also includes periodic wash-downs, waxes and varnishing as necessary. This keeps your yacht “ship shape” and ready for you, your family and guests to use whenever the mood strikes you. Increasing your own enjoyment isn’t the only benefit to maintaining your yacht to the highest standards. Regular maintenance can have a dramatic effect on long term costs. And, a well- maintained yacht retains more of its value – an important factor when it comes time to sell and buy that larger yacht!
