Yacht Safety and Compliance

UNRIVALLED INDUSTRY STANDARDS

Uncompromised Protection For Your Yacht, Your Crew And Your Peace Of Mind

At JMS YACHTING, we understand that operating a yacht requires more than luxury and performance—it demands a strong commitment to yacht safety and compliance. Our mission is to ensure your vessel, crew, and guests are fully protected while maintaining seamless operations at sea and in port. Whether it is through our personalised ISM/ISPS systems tailored to your yacht’s specific needs, our guidance on MLC and Flag State requirements, or our detailed Port State Control and compliance audits, we are dedicated to operational excellence.

With 24/7 global support from our highly trained Designated Persons Ashore (DPAs), JMS Yachting places your safety, and that of your guests, Captain, and crew, at the centre of everything we do. Our proactive approach ensures that every yacht we manage is not only protected but also fully compliant with international maritime standards.

ISM/ISPS systems designed for your yacht
In today’s world, global security concerns are ever-increasing. That is why JMS Yachting provides customised ISM and ISPS systems designed to ensure your yacht remains secure and compliant with international regulations. Our trained team maintains regular communication with captains and crews, offering professional support, conducting annual reviews, and verifying the effectiveness of safety measures. External experts also assess onboard policies and recommend improvements where necessary. By investing in structured systems and expert advice, JMS Yachting guarantees that your vessel operates at the highest level of yacht safety and compliance.
Isps Security Assessments & Audits
Maintaining a secure environment on board is vital. JMS Yachting performs ISPS security assessments and audits to help yachts meet global safety standards. We carefully review procedures, address vulnerabilities, and provide captains with the tools needed to maintain effective safety systems. Our hands-on approach ensures your yacht remains compliant while enhancing overall preparedness, allowing you to sail with complete confidence.
Yacht Certification Compliance
Certification is a cornerstone of yacht safety and compliance. At JMS Yachting, we manage and monitor all certification requirements, ensuring every document stays valid and up to date. From statutory certificates to class surveys, our team helps captains prepare, organise, and oversee inspections efficiently. As international regulations grow increasingly complex, we simplify the compliance process, preventing costly delays caused by missing or expired documentation.
Your Trusted Partner in Safety & Compliance
Choosing JMS Yachting means partnering with a team that values safety, professionalism, and reliability above all. Our approach to yacht safety and compliance goes beyond meeting regulations—it’s about fostering a culture of accountability and trust on every yacht we support. With expert systems, certification management, security audits, crew compliance tracking, and 24/7 emergency response, JMS Yachting delivers complete peace of mind. We protect what matters most: your yacht, your crew, and your guests, so you can navigate the world’s waters securely.

Crew Certification Compliance
Every yacht must be operated by a fully qualified and competent crew. JMS Yachting provides systems that track and manage crew certification, ensuring compliance across the board. We monitor expiry dates and keep all documents organised, so captains never have to worry about unexpected non-compliance. This meticulous process allows your crew to remain certified, healthy, and ready to operate your yacht at all times—strengthening both safety and reliability.
Bi-Annual Audits
At JMS Yachting, we believe effective yacht safety and compliance requires practical engagement. That’s why we conduct bi-annual onboard audits, each lasting one day. During these visits, our auditors thoroughly review ISM and ISPS systems, evaluate crew understanding, and highlight areas where improvements are needed. By making hands-on adjustments and providing expert recommendations, we ensure your yacht remains compliant while continuously improving its onboard safety culture.
24/7 Emergency Handling
Emergencies at sea can arise at any time, and rapid response is crucial. JMS Yachting operates a dedicated Emergency Response Centre that provides around-the-clock assistance to owners, guests, captains, and crew. From engine failures to medical emergencies or even piracy incidents, our specialised marine team is always ready to guide your vessel through critical situations. This global support system ensures that your yacht benefits from the highest standards of yacht safety and compliance, no matter where you are in the world.

I have worked extensively with Sam and JMS yachting over the past year, they have consistently presented excellent candidates for the positions that we have been looking to fill, who have been thoroughly vetted. They have been attentive to our requirements and assisted us in securing some excellent crew members, some at very short notice.
