Structured Care, tailored to your Yacht

Every yacht is different. Size, usage, systems, age, marina conditions, and how often an owner is present all influence what level of care is truly required.

For that reason, our Boat Care Packages are structured frameworks, not rigid products. They define levels of oversight and involvement, while allowing services to be adapted to the specific needs of each vessel. Owners are always encouraged to discuss their yacht with us and request a tailor-made quote.

Preventative care is at the core of our approach. Experience shows that early detection and regular monitoring significantly reduce long-term maintenance costs, unexpected failures, and loss of value. On boats, prevention is not optional — it is what protects your investment and property over time.

 


Silver Package

Essential oversight and basic yacht care

The Silver Package provides reliable local oversight for owners who visit their yacht regularly but want reassurance when they are away. It focuses on visibility, basic protection, and early identification of issues.

This package includes regular exterior cleaning to maintain appearance and reduce environmental wear, combined with routine boat and systems checks. These inspections focus on key onboard systems such as engines, batteries, bilge pumps, safety equipment, mooring lines, and basic electronics.

Bad weather monitoring and prevention are included, ensuring the yacht is visually checked following adverse conditions and that obvious risks are identified early. Owners also benefit from technical advice and local support, providing a trusted point of contact in the marina when questions or minor issues arise.

Best suited for:
Owners who use their yacht frequently and want essential oversight without full management.


Gold Package

Enhanced care with preventative focus

The Gold Package builds on Silver by increasing inspection frequency and introducing a stronger preventative approach. It is designed for yachts that are used seasonally or remain unattended for extended periods.

In addition to increased exterior cleaning, this package includes interior cleaning to help control humidity, odours, and material degradation. Boat and systems checks are carried out more frequently, improving early detection of mechanical, electrical, or safety-related issues.

Preventative bad weather inspections are more proactive, with closer monitoring before and after adverse conditions. Ongoing technical support and coordination are included, allowing Algarve Marine Services to liaise with suppliers, technicians, and service providers on the owner’s behalf.

Best suited for:
Owners who are not always present and want preventative care rather than reactive intervention.


Platinum Package

Complete care and active yacht management

The Platinum Package offers the highest level of involvement and is closest to full yacht management. It is designed for owners seeking maximum protection, readiness, and peace of mind throughout the year.

This package includes a complete exterior and interior cleaning programme, frequent systems checks, and detailed inspections across mechanical, electrical, safety, and operational systems. Priority bad weather response and prevention ensure the yacht is actively monitored during challenging conditions.

Platinum also includes proactive technical oversight and readiness checks, helping ensure the yacht is always prepared for use. This may include coordination of maintenance, pre-use checks, and follow-up after yard periods or repairs.

Best suited for:
Owners who want their yacht professionally cared for at all times, with minimal personal involvement.

Tailor-Made Care & Custom Quotes

While these packages define clear service levels, no two yachts require exactly the same care. Engine types, onboard systems, marina exposure, charter activity, and owner expectations all influence the scope of work.

For this reason, Algarve Marine Services encourages owners to view these packages as starting points. Services can be adjusted, expanded, or combined to suit each yacht, and custom quotations are always available following an initial assessment.

Our role is not to fit your yacht into a package — it is to ensure the level of care matches the reality of ownership.

Did you know?

Most serious onboard failures start as minor, detectable issues.
In the marine environment, corrosion, humidity, vibration, and inactivity accelerate wear far more than on land. Regular inspections and preventative care significantly reduce breakdowns, safety risks, and unexpected repair costs.

A structured care plan is not an expense — it is one of the most effective ways to protect the value, reliability, and enjoyment of your yacht over time.
