From the Purchase, Maintenance, Transportation to Hand over A previous client of GMC contacted us to represent them on the purchase of a specific Azimut. The process they required was… 1️⃣ Finding the yacht and contacting the representing party. 2️⃣ Negotiating the sales process from agreeing an offer, relevant paper work such as purchase contract to the sea trial, survey and taking delivery. 3️⃣ There was some important maintenance required such as replacement of some injectors which GMC oversaw the maintenance through there trusted team. 4️⃣ With our buyer been located out of Europe, we advised them the ideal delivery option was for the yacht to be transported via a ship carrier (pictures above). 5️⃣ Negotiating delivery via ship carrying and organising all the relevant paperwork, insurance and load details. 6️⃣ As the load day arrived a team member of GMC piloted the yacht to the Ship carrier and over saw the lift from start to finish. 7️⃣ Once the yacht arrived in its destination a team member of GMC was waiting on arrival to see the delivery and hand over to our happy client. This is just a small piece of a big storey of what GMC can offer to our clients. #YachtTransportation #LuxuryYachts #AzimutYacht #ShipCarrier #YachtDelivery #MarineLogistics

Where Does Teak for Yachts Come From and how’s it regulated? Teak is the industry standard for yacht decking, prized for its durability, weather resistance, and beauty. But have you ever wondered where it comes from and how it’s regulated? Sourcing Teak 🔸 Natural teak primarily comes from Myanmar, Thailand, and Laos, with additional sources in Africa and South America. 🔸 Sustainable plantation teak is grown in countries like Indonesia, India, and Costa Rica, reducing environmental impact. Regulation Matters 🔸 FSC Certification ensures teak is sustainably and responsibly harvested. 🔸The EU Timber Regulation (EUTR) and Lacey Act (USA) prohibit illegal teak imports. 🔸 Indonesia’s SVLK System verifies legal and sustainable teak harvesting. What’s Next? With increasing concerns over deforestation, many yacht builders are turning to: 🔸 Plantation teak or FSC-certified sources. 🔸 Synthetic alternatives for a more eco-friendly future. By choosing responsibly sourced teak, you’re supporting sustainable practices while enjoying the beauty of this iconic material. #TeakDecking #LuxuryYachtDesign #YachtTeak #MarineCraftsmanship #TeakWoodWorks #SustainableTeak #YachtDeckStyle #TeakMaintenance #TeakRefit #yachtaesthetics
