INTRODUCTION TO MANAGEMENT PLAN |
Today’s
yacht owners recognize the importance of protecting
their assets and investments. Whether you’ve
purchased a 40’ express cruiser or a 100’
luxury motor yacht, your first priority is to
keep your yacht in pristine condition while
being able to enjoy the yachting lifestyle
you’ve become accustomed to. Unfortunately,
many owners may become disenfranchised about
owning a yacht once unexpected mechanical failures
come to the surface and maintenance programs
are required.
A. Water Fantaseas, Inc., with our
extensive background in charter and yacht management,
has put together a flexible Complete Yacht
Management Plan to suit the varying needs
of owners.
Our
Complete Yacht Management Plan is really
a combination of two items, yacht management
and charter management. Beginning with yacht
management, A. Water Fantaseas, Inc. offers
a wide array of services to ensure that your
yacht is maintained properly, in pristine mechanical
and cosmetic condition. When you select
A. Water Fantaseas, Inc. to manage
your yacht, you will receive the following services
and benefits as only A.
Water Fantaseas, Inc. can provide
them: |
SERVICES and BENEFITS |

for your yacht or certifications and registrations,
our management staff can easily resolve
any administration tasks in a prompt and
professional manner. Even finding the perfect
dock has never been so easy.
Crew Services
Placing the appropriate crew onboard your
yacht is essential. Rest assured that your
yacht is in the professional hands of qualified
and licensed captains as well as intensively
trained mates who will treat your yacht
as their own.
Financial
Services
Crew salaries, payments for repairs, purchasing
supplies… all of these financial tasks
can become overwhelming. The management
staff at A. Water Fantaseas, Inc. is able
to manage the day-to-day financials of your
yacht with ease.
General Operations
The simple tasks of cleaning and weekly
checks often get overlooked by owners who
are simply too busy to be inundated by such
items. The staff of A. Water Fantaseas,
Inc. will oversee the cleaning and general
maintenance of your yacht. Weekly checks
including, but not limited to, battery levels
and sea strainers are simple preventative
maintenance items which can save owners
thousand in future repair. Additional services
such as waxing and polishing and even sea
trials are just a phone call away for all
of our owners under our Complete Yacht Management
Plan.
Emergency
Support
With staff available 24 hours a day, 365
days a year, our owners know that help is
always available. From weather related problems
to major mechanical breakdowns and accidents,
our staff can provide and/or direct you
to the appropriate assistance through our
network of specialized associates within
the marine industry.
Technical
Support
Proper maintenance of your yacht is vital
to ensure that it is in sound condition,
and we realize, especially for non-local
owners, that finding the answers to “what’s
wrong” is not always so easy. For
this reason, we have created our own network
of highly qualified professionals who can
help you through such times.

Accounts
Services
As the exclusive charter agent of your yacht,
A. Water Fantaseas, Inc. will execute all
contracts, secure payments and disburse
funds accordingly. At the end of each month,
you will be provided with a statement outlining

the amount due to you as the owner, along
with any repairs or expenses.
Extended Operations
An extension of the services provided under
the General Operations, this service will
address additional cleaning and maintenance
as necessary after each charter. Your yacht
will always be returned to dock after each
charter fully cleaned and ready for departure
on a moments notice.
Calendar
The calendar of your yacht will be kept
by our professional staff. Scheduled charters,
proposed charters as well as owner usage
and schedule maintenance are kept up to
date and available on our specialized in-house
server, available to our entire staff. This
not only maximizes the useable time of your
yacht, but also assists in the prompt booking
of your yacht.
Marketing
Services
As a part of our select charter fleet, your
yacht will be marketed aggressively through
a distinctive network of unsurpassed worth.
Exclusive contracts with some of the most
fashionable resort properties in Miami and

leisure markets, and superior meeting planners,
are only a few of the outlets through which
your yacht is guaranteed exposure in the
market unavailable elsewhere. |
Through the combination
of our yacht management and charter management
programs, our Complete Yacht Management
plan provides for a unique opportunity,
for you as the owner, to generate a supplemental
income which can subsidize a portion of
your ownership costs. |
