Today’s yacht owners recognize the importance of protecting their assets and investments.
Whether you’ve purchased a 40’ express cruiser or a 100’ luxury motor boat, your first priority is to keep your vessel in pristine condition while being able to enjoy the yachting lifestyle you’ve become accustomed to.
Unfortunately, many owners may become disenfranchised about owning a vessel once unexpected mechanical failures come to the surface and maintenance programs are required. With our extensive background in charter and yacht management, we have put together a flexible Complete Yacht Management Plan to suit the varying needs of owners.
Water Fantaseas offers a wide array of services to ensure that your vessel is maintained properly, in pristine mechanical and cosmetic condition. When you select Water Fantaseas to manage your boat, you will receive the following services and benefits as only Water Fantaseas can provide them:

Yacht Management FAQ’S
What makes our service unique?
By managing an exclusive fleet of vessels in the 40’ to 100’ range, Water Fantaseas is able to offer personalized service to our owners rarely seen elsewhere. In conjunction with our unique marketing strength, we can offer our owners a greater number of charters per month, resulting in a higher level of supplemental income to apply toward ownership costs.
What expenses does the owner incur?
As the owner, you will be responsible for all repairs to your vessel, as well as standard fees such as dockage and general maintenance including but not limited to oil changes. General cleaning as well as systems checks, including but not limited to battery levels and sea strainers, are included in the monthly maintenance fee assessed to the owner. Additional services such as waxing are available. All insurance fees are also the sole responsibility of the owner.
What expenses does Water Fantaseas incur?
As the manager of your yacht, Water Fantaseas will incur all expenses related to the marketing of your vessel for charter, with the exception of vessel brochures. We also provide staff for the coordination and oversight of all repairs to your vessel, at our expense. Any expenses related to administration and accounting services offer by Water Fantaseas to you as the owner are also covered at no cost to you.
When can I use my boat?
When your vessel is not scheduled for a charter, it’s available for your use at a moments notice. We ask that owners try to schedule their use ahead of time so that we can block it accordingly in our calendars and not offer it for charter during your use. Additionally, we do ask that all previously booked charters be honored by the owners. Also, Water Fantaseas will be more than happy to provide crew services for your vessel while your onboard, if you so desire, for an additional cost.
Will chartering pay for all my expenses?
Chartering will allow for an owner to create supplemental income which they can apply toward the total cost of ownership. While Water Fantaseas can offer owners a greater number of charters per month compared to other management plans, we cannot guarantee that the generated income will completely offset your expenses.
What if I only want some of your services?
