Vessel Ownership

Using a company, partnership or other arrangement to own and operate a vessel can provide vessel owners with a number of benefits, including asset protection, privacy and qualification for a flag not available to the individual owner.

We combine 45 years of corporate service experience, with a presence in global range of internationally recognised corporate domiciles and dedicated expertise in the formation and administration of multi-jurisdictional corporate structures for the ownership and chartering of superyachts and commercial vessels. Our service includes assistance with jurisdiction-specific yacht structures where VAT may be a consideration.
