Chase boat registrations: Know the risks, plan with clarity
Within superyacht operations, chase boats frequently occupy a regulatory grey zone—critical in function, yet often only loosely covered by commercial compliance or registration standards. These vessels play an essential role in guest transfers, logistics, and water sports support, yet their compliance status is frequently left unaddressed.

Routine drills don’t prepare crews for real emergencies. Scenario-based training builds sharper instincts, stronger teams, and a more resilient onboard culture.
Nonviolent communication: Conflict resolution for superyacht crew
Tension is inevitable when working in close quarters, but onboard a superyacht, how crew communicate can make or break the atmosphere. Nonviolent Communication (NVC) offers a practical, respectful approach to resolving everyday conflict, helping teams move from friction to flow, one conversation at a time.
