The owner of the yacht has a permanent insight in maintenance processes and their cost – the yachts that we hold in our bases are the best evidence of the quality of service that we provide.

To complete our mission of providing our clients the best possible quality of service, we cooperate with a team of highly experienced yacht technicians and other experts in industry. Due to that, our clients can be sure that any yacht maintenance work will be done diligently, professionally and on time.

In what condition is the yacht after the program and what is its market value?
