Pre-delivery Service

We are not a company that is only interested in selling yachts we are a full service company. Many of our brokers and engineers are yachtsmen and yacht owners themselves and understand the needs of our customers.

We also understand that satisfied customers are the future of our business and so we do our best to look after them throughout their yacht ownership. Many become personal friends. To us it is the relationship that matters.

After contract signing our team gets to work. Pre-Delivery Service Manager John Gye describes the process as “Ensuring that the client is getting everything he ordered." The list of things to be checked and carefully scrutinised on the owner’s behalf is a comprehensive one:

  1. We will help you choose décor and equipment options.

  2. Our Pre-Delivery Service Manager will inform the shipyard of any problems
    we may have come across on previous yachts of the same model to ensure they
    are not repeated.

  3. In the case of larger semi-custom yachts the Pre-Delivery Manager will brief
    Simpson Marine's own surveyor who will oversee the construction of the yacht at
    the shipyard with inspections every two or three weeks to ensure the yacht is built
    to the highest standard.

  4. When the yacht has been completed, inspected and sea-trialled, the surveyor
    will send a report to our Pre-Delivery Manager who will carry out his own inspection
    and sea trials at the shipyard.

  5. Another surveyor will oversee the loading of the yacht onto the ship at the port
    of shipment and send a photographic report to Simpson Marine once the yacht
    is safely secured on the ship.

  6. Simpson Marine's Service Team check the yacht when it arrives at its port of
    delivery in Asia - in Hong Kong or Singapore - to ensure no damage has been
    sustained.

  7. The Simpson Marine Service Team will ensure the yacht is safely offloaded
    from the ship and will tow it to the Commissioning Dock at the Simpson Marine
    Service Centre.

  8. The yacht will be thoroughly cleaned and polished after the long sea voyage.

  9. The Simpson Marine Service Team will check all systems and equipment
    and remedy any defects found. These are rare, because, says John, “We have
    a zero tolerance for uncompleted boats.” This period of checking is also used to
    add any afterthoughts the owner may have had about adding extra optional items.

  10. Our administration staff will meanwhile make all necessary arrangements
    to license or register the yacht, to ensure it is legally imported into the
    country.

  11. There’s also a period of explaining to the owner how the boat works. They
    are complex machines and need trained crew to run them, to plan maintenance
    and prevent problems arising. John’s staff work closely with the Service Department
    to help train crew, because, as John says, maintenance aims to prevent problems
    before they occur and need to be cured. “It’s not like a car you can order from a
    picture in a magazine. A car lives in a garage, while a boat lives on the ocean, open
    to the weather and the forces of nature,” he adds.

  12. Finally, the Happy Day arrives when the Champagne flows and the yacht is
    handed over to the new owner who can now enjoy the craft of their dreams.
