Super Yachts Protection

Your floating asset is a soft target exposing you and your family to myriad unknown threats including kidnapping for ransom, theft, hijacking, murder, vandalism, and unrecognized surveillance.

 

As criminal actors come to understand that  private yachts and their crew are much easier targets  to attack with potential for greater reward.

 

Private Yacht owners and crews face increased piracy threats around the world, including many popular ports in the Caribbean, off the coast of Florida, the Mediterranean, Mexico, South Pacific, Singapore, Maldives, Africa, Gulf of Suez, Oman, Aden or the Arabic Sea. Pirates now view the crew, cargo and vessel as a single commodity and demand a higher fee during the ransom negotiation.

 

Modern day criminal piracy attacks can include:

 

Kidnapping

Drug Smuggling

Hijacked Delivery Vehicle

Cyber Attacks

Diver Attacks

Vandalism

In-port Crime

Surveillance

MTSA and ISPS regulations and requirements for yacht owners are also becoming more complex. Our maritime security services defend crews and owners against potential threats, intrusion, and damage,in turn reducing overall insurance premiums and keeping you and your assets safe.

LONDON, England (CNN) — The world’s richest people are spending millions arming their super-yachts with military-style technology and trained personnel to fight off potential attackers.

 

At $475 million, Roman Abramovich’s mega-yacht “Eclipse” is said to be the most expensive in the world. The threat of pirates and growing fears that yachts may be their next target have led many owners to equip their vessels with the latest James Bond-like technology. Hidden chambers, escape pods, tracking devices and ex-marines employed as security guards have all risen in popularity. “It is only a matter of time before pirates move from cargo ships to attacking super-yachts cruising near Somalia,” Michael Howorth, former super-yacht captain and technical editor at Super Yacht World magazine, told CNN. “Many pirates do not yet appreciate the importance and potential value of these yachts.” Read Complete article here: Wealthy arm their yachts with military-level security.
