While some types of cargo are simple to transport and can be handled by nearly any company, other shipments require extra care and should only be trusted with a specialized service provider. Yachts are a good example of this because yacht transport is challenging, highly technical, and requires significant expertise.
Here’s why yacht transport services are so specialized and how to find the right solution for shipping your yacht by sea.
There’s no denying that yachts are challenging to handle because of the heavy lifting, expensive features, securing of materials, and coordinating of paperwork. There is a lot that goes into each and every yacht transfer, such as testing the stability of the deck, performing inspections, and planning the voyage route. We are very familiar with popular transportation routes to North America, the Mediterranean, and Asia and have been able to increase our service offerings due to increased demand.
Keeping your yacht safe and protected are our top priorities during the transportation process. This is why we have so many checks and tests in place during loading, transit, and unloading. At Cross Chartering, we are innovators in this industry and constantly making improvements to our processes to keep everything safe and functioning well. Our lifting and cradling materials are routinely inspected for any signs of wear, and we check our clients’ yachts in transit as well to ensure onboard safety and security.
Yachts are unique, expensive, and delicate. Their handling requires expertise with this specific type of cargo and knowledge about various types of technology that can be put to use while transporting them.
We keep up with yachting trends and are familiar with the design features of both old and new yacht models. This includes newer yacht materials that are now being utilized because they are lighter weight and eco-friendlier than traditional construction. All of this attention to detail helps us customize our transportation options for you and provide you the very best level of service.
