What Types Of Yachts Do You Ship?

We specialize in shipping various types of yachts, including sailing yachts, racing yachts, motorboats, superyachts, and commercial boats. We handle a wide range of vessels, ensuring their safe and timely transport.

Can I use my own cradle?

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.
