The implications of tracking your yachts are impressive. A fleet manager can improve security and better monitor both inventory and usage. Covert yacht tracking is used by service and delivery companies, as well as builders and charter fleets.

Why should you use yacht tracking, and what are the benefits?

What Is Yacht Tracking?

The phrase “yacht tracking” or satellite tracking”” refers to tracking solutions used to protect business assets through monitoring and detailed reporting. It is often covert because only the company’s management – not the guests or employees– are aware of the tracking being conducted. By being covert, you can have a better sense of any unauthorised or illegal use. You can quickly learn about suspicious activity that could result in your losing a valuable asset  or charter availability.

Keep an Eye on Your Guests

Your assets are all over the place … literally. But that doesn’t mean you can’t keep a close eye on them. Tracking allows you not only to see your yachts online on a chart, but you can also show historical data and if a charter had visited restricted areas. By creating a geofence, you can receive alerts to your email or smartphone when a yacht enters or leaves a designated area. Companies that utilise satellite tracking can significantly reduce yacht idle time to increase productivity and minimise security risks against theft and illegal usage.

Know the Exact Location of Your Inventory

Your business depends on your ability to track your fleet. Whether  it is a single charter yacht where it is essential to plan turnaround times or a fleet of several hundred that need security, you want to know where your assets are. With yacht tracking, you can better communicate with base managers, and booking agents to provide the information they need to do their jobs better. You can also act more quickly to recover stolen yachts.

Find Stolen Yachts

A stolen yacht can be very expensive for your company. Not only could you lose inventory, you also loose valuable charter income until that yacht is recovered or replaced. The more quickly you can hunt down a stolen yacht, the more likely it is that you will recover missing inventory and restore its earning potential.
