Yacht Transport by cargo vessel
Yacht transport process
1 The selection
Depending on the location and the destination of the yacht, we will give you an overview of the most sensible transport options that are as close as possible to your destination. You will notice at this point already that yacht transport is not as easy to book as a ticket and requires a high degree of flexibility in terms of time. In order to give you this flexibility in terms of time, we are personally on site for loading and unloading. You are of course welcome to accompany us.
2 The contract
After we have gone through the various options with you, we will assess the cost estimates of the selected shipping companies together and guide you safely through the topics of insurance and customs fees, among other things. After you have decided on an offer, you conclude the transport contract directly with the transport company.
3 Preparation of the transport
Before we can start, we come to the topic of preparing the transport. The crew of the cargo ship checks the so-called lashings on deck during the voyage. However, as a rule, the crew will not enter your yacht any further. Adequate preparation is therefore essential. We discuss this with you and avoid surprises at the destination.
4 During the vessels voyage
You receive daily trip progress updates and a linked (extrapolated) destination ETA. Since the selected cargo ships also transport other cargo, these data can change continuously. Please do not plan with fixed times.
5 Unloading the yacht
We are on site during the unloading, put the yacht back into operation and take you to the destination.
