What yacht owners encounter in practice
The key issues that drive costs up and undermine operational control.
We address the core of the problem immediately — and take it into action.
We address the core of the problem immediately — and take it into action.
- IAn inflated maintenance and repair list with no prioritization - making it unclear what is truly critical
- IIBlind purchase or sale - hidden defects and inaccurate asset valuation
- IIILack of time - the owner is not expected to delve into technical specifics
- IVDependence on the management company - decision-making lacks transparency and budgets drift
- VBreakdowns after seasonal servicing - maintenance schedules and consumables do not match the vessel’s actual condition
- VICrew expense control - spare parts are purchased/returned with no verification of their intended use
How an independent audit transforms the situation
Independence: we act solely in the owner’s interests, with no conflicts of interest involving contractors.
Transparent budgeting: prioritization, justification of every line item, and elimination of duplications.
Evidence base: a report with photos and measurements — your leverage in negotiations.
Risk mitigation in transactions: pre- and post-audit minimize unexpected issues.
Operational oversight: we monitor expenditures and ensure maintenance and compliance procedures are performed correctly.
Time efficiency: you make decisions quickly and with full justification.

Our Approach
Clear principles and consistent procedures — this is how we protect the owner’s interests and deliver quality you can rely on.
Objectivity
We are not affiliated with shipyards, contractors, or management companies.
The yacht owner is our only client.
All recommendations are based on facts, data, and engineering analysis — not on the contractor’s commercial interests

We do not limit our work to a superficial inspection.
We assess the technical condition of all systems, propulsion units, electrical equipment, hydraulics, the hull, and interior areas.
Every component is evaluated in terms of functionality, wear, and remaining service life.

Confidentiality
All data and reports are protected by a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).
We understand the sensitivity of information regarding the yacht’s value, technical condition, and itineraries.
We never use any materials without the client’s written consent.

Clear timelines
The audit is always delivered on schedule.
We specify in advance:
• How many days the inspection will take.
• When you will receive the report.
• In what format it will be presented.
And we adhere to this plan regardless of external factors.

And we adhere to this plan regardless of external factors.
All materials are provided in both Russian and English, ensuring that the owner, captain, and manager understand each other without distortion.
This eliminates errors when implementing recommendations and communicating with shipyards.

Depth of Analysis
RU/EN Communication
Compact workflow stages
Project Brief & Access
- We start with an online call
- We clarify the audit objectives, collect the initial information, and agree on the report format
- If needed, we coordinate with the captain, navigator, or engineer to obtain the technical documentation
Result: a clear technical brief and an agreed inspection scope
Inspection and Diagnostics
- An engineer travels to the yacht and carries out an inspection of all key systems
- The inspection covers: the hull, engines, generators, pumps, air-conditioning systems, electrical systems, navigation equipment, interiors, furniture, and paintwork
- Professional tools and measurement equipment are used
Result: objective data on the yacht’s condition
Report and Priorities
- After the inspection, a detailed report is prepared, including photographic documentation, tables, recommendations, and clearly defined priorities
- A maintenance and repair schedule is added — a list of required works with sequence, timelines, and budget
Result: a tool for negotiation and cost control
Post-audit upon request
- If needed, we support the implementation of the recommendations
- We verify the correctness of the completed work and the crew’s reporting.
- We ensure that no item is overlooked or ‘softened’
Result: full cycle completion — from diagnosis to oversight

Our experience — your comfort and confidence.
We have been working in the yachting industry for over five years. The true measure of our work is the growing number of clients and successfully completed projects.
Over this time, I have come to understand that the way contractors present their services often masks poor quality and inflated pricing.
Repair lists prepared by the crew frequently fail to reflect the yacht owner’s real objectives and instead create the feeling that money is simply ‘disappearing.’
Our team consists of top specialists with backgrounds at leading Russian shipyards, ready to help you achieve an optimal refit result within a reasonable budget

Real tasks — measurable results
Prevention of a critical failure — incorrect maintenance consumables were identified; maintenance procedures and schedules were revised.
€90,000 eliminated from the repair budget by removing duplicate items and unnecessary upgrades (45 m)
Transaction value reduced by up to 11% — the report identified hidden defects during the purchase (Mediterranean).
