TYLtd can advise on the best yacht ownership solution so that your personal & corporate lives have separation from your UBO yacht ownership. There are benefits of registering a yacht certain Flag states some of them are plain such as tax & VAT/TVA/IVA relief, others are more obscure such as the UBO separation & the masking of the ownership of a corporate entity. We always recommend specialists in this field & so we will introduce you to the right experts.

Taurus have a crew management division that does away with the need for owners to employ crew personally or via their businesses. We also take away the responsibility & liability of you having to manage or pay crew directly.

Our full crew management service includes the search, vetting, selection & placement of candidates on a yacht as well as the drawing up of job descriptions for them, contract preparation (SEA's) & the signing of them onboard.

As part of your fiscal responsibilities we can arrange & set up operating any accounts, credit, debit or APA cards for the Captains & their department heads to pay for day to day items such as provisions, consumables & other onboard running expenses. Using these operating accounts enables us to provide purchasing & invoice payment services to you as well as allowing us to process the crews salary, payroll & social security payments on your behalf.

Our personnel at TYL will be happy to arrange the purchase of any item for your yacht by going through a multiple quotation & negotiation process in order to get the best possible price. We will be happy to work with your crew & accountants to monitor the purchasing process so you get value for money & the quality items that you require & onboard. We deal with suppliers that only offer the best terms & conditions & that will guarantee to deliver on time.

We can monitor your sub-contractors performance for you or employ sub-contractors on your behalf whilst they work onboard your yacht. We will carry out suitability & due diligence on them & will if needed contract them in for you. During the contract period TYL will monitor all works being done & keep you advised of any work in progress towards the expected completion date, including any quality control concerns that we may have & any possible cost overruns we become aware of. Taurus will always work for you & only you when dealing with subcontractors.

Most of our owners use TYL to arrange a seasonal or permanent berths for their yachts. We can also purchase or sell a berth on your behalf or lease it out to other yachts when you are not using it. When your yacht requires a berth whilst it is cruising or moving around, we can work with your captain to obtain one for them in a marina or on a buoy anywhere in the world. We can arrange and settle payments for any berthing anywhere at any time.

Taurus can provide a number of agency services to your yacht to lighten the load on the crew whilst they look after you, your family & guests or they are on charter. We can provide travel & hotel bookings, restaurant & club reservations, book shows or entertainment onboard & provide travel & transport services to you & to the yacht.

We or our agents can assist any captain with customs & immigration clearance on entry & departure in any & in all countries. We can also organise shipping & clearances for spare parts & inbound stores anytime anywhere.
