Owning and operating a vessel can be complex, with a number of considerations requiring significant attention.

With a comprehensive understanding of the maritime industry, our dedicated team of professionals can assist owners and their representatives in understanding the diverse requirements associated with the ownership, registration and management of a range of vessels (including motor yachts and sailing yachts) whether being used on a commercial or private basis.

With the legislative and regulatory requirements of the maritime industry continually changing, we understand that staying abreast of new developments is of utmost importance, in order to ensure that all of the vessels under our management remain compliant.

We give significant consideration to how and where an owner plans to use the vessel, in order to ascertain any tax or VAT exposure, whether the asset is intended to generate income and subsequently whether tailored tax planning could offer any fiscal benefits and/or minimise any liabilities.

Tailored to your individual requirements, our maritime services are delivered professionally, reliably and with complete integrity, leaving you free to enjoy your asset in the knowledge that its safe custody and effective management remains our priority.
