Yacht and Aircraft services

For many people, yachts and private aircraft represent the ultimate in freedom and luxury. Maintaining yachts and aircraft, however, requires careful navigation.

Entrusting the care of yachts and aircraft to us means benefiting from dedicated, specialised teams. The ownership, the financing, the taxes, the insurance, and the management administration are all taken care of. We ensure that the value, enjoyment and passion of ownership are maximised.

Our services include:

Aircraft ownership solutions

There are several, different uses for aircraft: business or pleasure, staying in-country, flying abroad, and venturing across continents. Aircraft themselves vary widely, from small turbo-props to standard business jets, to commercial airliners.

Careful legal, fiscal and operational consideration—this is what all aircraft require. Our Yacht & Aircraft Group provides reliable aircraft ownership solutions, making sure that aircraft are efficiently run from a financial perspective. That may mean setting up a holding company, arranging a lease and providing the owner with all available tax benefits. Maximising the owner’s aircraft investment securely: that is our goal.

Yacht management administration

In order to enjoy your sailing experience fully, safety and efficiency must be considered. A well-managed yacht, with a capable, enthusiastic crew, makes the most of the lifestyle that yachting can offer.

We provide registration, operational and administrative services, ranging from minimal, to all-inclusive care (yacht management services are outsourced). We listen to and understand the owners’ requirements and tailor-make our services in accordance to our clients’ wishes and needs. What we can offer you includes:

• Registration in Red Ensign and other jurisdictions.
• Insurance – yacht, crew and guest insurance can be arranged offering the highest level of cover at competitive rates
• Operational and administrative support–from petty cash to budget control and all forms of financial reporting
• Crew services – contracting, payroll and social security issues
• Escrow services – financial protection for buyers or sellers
• Concierge services – attentive assistance to clients and guests anywhere in the world

Yacht ownership solutions

What does owning a yacht mean to you? The freedom to cruise the clear waters of the Caribbean? The pleasure of exploring remote places? Or, perhaps, the challenge to compete in a regatta?

Personal enjoyment is usually the first consideration when purchasing a yacht. But boats of this kind are also valuable assets, investments; care must be taken to minimise liabilities, legal and fiscal. Working with clients’ professional advisors, our Yacht and Aircraft Group creates tailor-made ownership solutions. We plan around your personal circumstances, how you intend to use your yacht. The result? The thrill of ownership and trouble-free sailing.
