YACHTS

IMPORTANT

DECLARATION OF PRIVATE USE

As you will have observed from IMMARBE's Codes of Standards for Yachts, there is a clear distinction between Commercial and Private use, the requirements for the former being more comprehensive.  When applying for the registration of a yacht, you will be required to choose between Commercial and Private use and the intended operating range of the yacht - refer to Section 7 on the topic of Application.

We are mindful of the fact that many owners of yachts which are in Private use may wish to charter them out for short periods in order to recover some of their operating expenses.  Therefore, we have decided to allow private yachts to be chartered for up to a total of 112 days in any period of 12 consecutive months provided they satisfy our additional requirements for commercial yachts of this size as well as those appertaining to any change in the operating range during the period when they will be in commercial use.

We attach a copy of the "Declaration of Private Use" which reflects the terms upon which this facility is granted to such yachts.
