SAFETY & COMPLIANCE

We provide a structured system to yachts, to ensure compliance amid the complex world of rules and regulations by which they must operate.

​

By working with the vessels to maintain existing requirements, we streamline the implementation of any new regulations which come into force.

​

Our safety management system (SMS) has been developed and is approved by a number of Flag authorities, meeting the requirements of the International Safety Management (ISM) Code. This system can be tailored to suit the specific needs and operational requirements of any individual yacht in the most user-friendly way.

​

For yachts under 500gt, which are not required to meet the full requirements of the ISM and ISPS codes, we can provide a tailored version, giving peace of mind for the owner and crew
