After huge success of the UK office of Sevenstar Yacht Transport, opened in 2011, the company has decided to expand it to ten people, which made it necessary to transfer to a larger office. On February 1st Sevenstar UK transfered to a brand new office in the Ocean Village Innovation Centre in Southampton. While the core business of Sevenstar Yacht Transport is to utilise its own fleet where possible to ship yachts around the world, the Sevenstar UK office also successfully provides its clients with liner options.
Sevenstar Yacht Transport UK transfers to new location
Sevenstar Yacht Transport is the world’s leading provider of yacht transportation services on a lift-on-lift-off basis. Innovation has been the key to Sevenstar’s success, including the development of new loading methods and adaptable shipping cradles. The Sevenstar UK office brings expertise to the company with worldwide liner services opening up a whole new avenue of shipping options in addition to the lift-on-lift-off services.
One of the company’s greatest strengths is that it owns its carrier vessels via mother company Spliethoff. The Amsterdam-based Spliethoff Group is the largest shipowner in the Netherlands, specialising in heavy lift vessels which are ideal for carrying yachts. Whilst competitors need to line up orders and, only then find a carrier, Sevenstar has a fleet of vessels at their fingertips.
