Superyachts Protection

Threats against privately owned or chartered small and medium pleasure vessels are well recognised as they are more easily boarded due to a lower freeboard. Such vessels seldom are equipped with passive protection systems or a ‘place of safety’ in the event of attack whether within sea areas of recognised hazard or through an opportunistic encounter at sea.

Owners, crews and passengers are potentially at risk from piracy, armed robbery and injury with the possibility of ongoing kidnap and ransom demands being made.

Our teams can compile a risk assessment report with advice on journeys, equipment, strategies and potential modifications better to safeguard the vessel as well as to provide active security personnel if required.
