At Peters & May, we know logistics can be complex. Our FAQ covers everything from yacht shipping and customs clearance to handling dangerous goods and worldwide freight forwarding. If your question isn’t listed here, please get in touch with our team directly.
Contact our forwarding team at projectcargo@petersandmay.com or reach out to your local office to discuss how we can meet your cargo transport requirements.
The shipping duration can vary depending on the destination, the size of the yacht, and other factors. We’ll provide you with a timeline as part of our proposal to ensure you have a clear understanding of the process.
Safety is our top priority. We employ specialized equipment and expert teams to guarantee your yacht’s security.
Generally, annual yacht insurance (such as hull & machinery policies) covers normal boating activities but does not include protection during transport.
For yacht shipments, marine cargo insurance can be arranged to protect your yacht while it is being shipped. Peters & May participates in an open cover marine cargo insurance programme to support this.
If you would also like to review or arrange annual yacht ownership insurance, we can introduce you to trusted marine insurance specialists for further advice.
