Yes – however, this is subject to our approval and as such we will require technical drawings of the cradle. You will need to make your own arrangements to transport your cradle to the vessel. If you don’t have a cradle and are looking to guarantee the safe shipping of your yacht; Peters & May can assist. Our in-house technical team are experts in bespoke cradle design and maintenance, meaning we can develop a cradle tailored to the exact requirements of your yacht.
Before the scheduled shipping date, ensure that your yacht is properly prepared for transport. This includes securing loose items, removing personal belongings, and following any specific guidelines provided by Peters & May. Our team will guide you through the necessary preparations to ensure a smooth shipping process.
Safety is our top priority. We employ specialized equipment and expert teams to guarantee your yacht’s security.
With all loadings, we give a 15-day window for shipment in which your yacht must be available. The reason for this is based on the consolidation of yachts wanting to ship from A to B during the same period. Through economies of scale we can ensure we offer customers the best rate for shipping if consolidation is an option. Secondly, until all bookings are finalised the vessel cannot be nominated. Vessel schedules can vary, requiring flexibility in loading date.
