7) DRY DOCK WORKS
Dry dock service is the most important part of winter service.
Dry dock service consists of washing, blasting and painting of the vessel and is one of the main reasons for dry-docking, as it ensures efficient vessel operations for next season.
After extended periods of sailing and service, it is not uncommon for marine growth such as algae or slime to build up on the sides of the vessel.
This buildup has a direct impact on the efficiency of the vessel and ultimately leads to higher fuel consumption.
On the dry dock we also perform polishing of the yacht and superstructure, change of anodas (zincs), inspection of stabilisators and trim tabs, check of sea valves and adjustment if needed, markup of anchor chain and many more small repairs.
8) STORAGE SERVICE
We’re providing a safe space for your personal belongins, tenders, water toys, jet skis, exterior cushions and overall yacht equipment, which is especially important over winter time, so it doesn’t stay on board and thus get damaged.
Exterior cushions, boat parts, tends and covers, as well as bedlinen and pillows, duvets etc are stored in a dry hall where temperature is constantly being held on 23 degrees Celsius.
Tenders and jet skies are stored in a dry hall, covered and checked weekly, as well as washed once per month to clean them from possible dirt or dust, and plugged in shore power if needed, or placed on battery chargers.
9) COOLING SYSTEM SERVICE
