Small-yacht safety management system, yachts under 500 GT
If your yacht is under 500 GT, we will write its safety management system (often called a “mini-ISM”), set it up on board with your crew and keep it reviewed. For commercial yachts on the UK and other Red Ensign registers, and on the Marshall Islands register, this system is compulsory. On Malta, and for private yachts, it is recommended rather than required.
| Service | Fee | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| SMS written and set up, with a 12-month Safety Management (Tier A) contract | Included free | Within the €1,250 monthly fee, with the annual review. If the contract ends early, a pro-rata share of the €3,500 set-up fee is repayable. |
| Stand-alone mini-ISM set-up, without a monthly tier | €3,500 + travel | We write the system, tailor it to the yacht and set it up on board with your crew. |
| Stand-alone SMS review | Priced on request | Every three years under the Red Ensign code; every year under the Marshall Islands code. |

Our pricing principles
- No mark-up. Pass-through costs are invoiced at cost, with receipts.
- No commissions. We take nothing from yards, suppliers, software vendors or brokers. Read the pledge.
- No percentage-of-final-cost refit fees. They reward overruns.
- Written scope. Anything outside it needs a short written change note before work starts.
- Fair terms. A 12-month initial term, then three months’ notice.
