Define your needs and desires with a professional to choose the yacht that’s right for you

The search for the ideal luxury yacht is a real journey. Defining your tastes and wishes in terms of the type of vessel and equipment you want is a necessary step, as are the resources to be allocated to this major financial operation. The first questions to ask will include the type of yacht (motor yacht or sailboat), the number of people, the desired speed, whether it will be used permanently or chartered for certain periods, and whether there will be a crew on board. With all these factors to consider, it’s essential to work with real experts in the world of the sea and yachting to make your first purchase a success.

Managing your yacht: the key to a smooth first experience as a shipowner

Once the type of yacht has been chosen and the purchase budget set, a new stage begins for the first-time owner: the management of a luxury yacht. Pelagia Yachting offers you the services of experienced professionals in the field of luxury yachting.

The movement of your vessel cannot be left to chance. As a shipowner, you will be subject to the constraints of international maritime law. Depending on the country you visit, the rules of maritime navigation vary. You’ll need close support to avoid running afoul of local maritime regulations. The tax aspect should not be overlooked. Depending on the flag you fly, the applicable framework may differ considerably. We can advise you throughout your experience to ensure that your management runs smoothly and without a hitch.

Finally, managing berths is a real challenge. As a yacht owner, you want to be able to take advantage of prime berths when you call. We’ll make sure you have the best possible sailing conditions, based on your habits and choices.

Efficient financial management between purchase and maintenance of your yacht

Right from the purchase stage, it is important to anticipate the maintenance costs of your luxury yacht. One of the most common ways for yacht owners to recoup their maintenance costs is to charter their yacht. We offer comprehensive charter management services. We take care of bookings, the financial side, and the aspects surrounding the presence of your charter guests on board. We ensure the safety of the occupants, the quality of the services on board and the management of any problems that may arise during their stay. Our qualified captains will look after your yacht while ensuring that your guests have the time of their lives in complete safety.

We take care to maximise the profitability of operations, ensuring a balance between rental income and the maintenance costs of your yacht. In this respect, we optimise maintenance and upkeep expenditure for you, so that you benefit both from fair prices and from keeping your vessel in impeccable condition, thanks to our recognised experience in the luxury yachting market.
