Strategic Presence Across Europe — Local Expertise, Global Reach —

Where We Operate & Why It Matters

Many yacht owners ask: "Where do you operate? Can you support my yacht in my region?

YES WE CAN Your yacht needs local expertise, established relationships with trusted yards and suppliers, and rapid response when issues arise. That's why we've built a strategic presence across Europe's key yachting regions.

Our Operating Model

Yacht Commissioning operates as a hybrid company with local teams in key regions and a centralized project management hub in Lisbon. This structure gives you the best of both worlds: on-the-ground expertise where your yacht is, plus coordinated oversight and quality control across all projects.

• Corporate Office: London, UK

• EU Sales, Administration & Project Management: Lisbon, Portugal

Yachtcommissioning has their own local teams in each country to interfere and support the jobs on the yachts. The team travels to where they are needed.
