The ability to reliably ship yachts around the globe is a prerequisite for many of today’s regattas. As with state-of-the-art racing yachts, Sevenstar recognizes that classic yachts of all sizes and descriptions need special attention.“These are unique yachts that are often similar to works of art and must be treated with the greatest of care”, says Sevenstar’s classic yacht expert Matthieu Le Bihan. Sevenstar transports roughly 3,000 yachts a year on its vessels, so the master, officers, and crew all have a clear understanding of the processes involved. In any industry, the calibre of clients is a good endorsement and Sevenstar has long-running close relationships with many owners and project managers.
