How Far In Advance Should I Book Superyacht Transport Services?

It’s recommended to book as early as possible to secure your preferred dates and routes. Contact us to discuss your specific schedule.

Do I need insurance?

Generally, annual yacht insurance (such as hull & machinery policies) covers normal boating activities but does not include protection during transport.

For yacht shipments, marine cargo insurance can be arranged to protect your yacht while it is being shipped. Peters & May participates in an open cover marine cargo insurance programme to support this.

If you would also like to review or arrange annual yacht ownership insurance, we can introduce you to trusted marine insurance specialists for further advice.
