What does FLYN-YACHTING offer?
Certificates and calculations directly usable by the professional and which can be shown to the administration.
FLYN-YACHTING delivers, for the most part, products in the form of certificates, calculations and detailed supporting evidence to justify compliance with one or more regulatory criteria. Some products may cover one or more years (temporary admission); others only a few hours (sale in international waters).
FLYN-YACHTING plays the role of a trusted third party vis-à-vis both the shipowner and the administration: without any subjective point of view, the certificate issued to the professional shows whether an objective criterion is respected or not. Equipped with sharp expertise on the fiscal, customs, social and environmental regulations applicable to yachting, FLYN-YACHTING confronts the regulatory requirement with the reality of navigation.

FLYN-NEMO beacon option
During the 2022 season, some yachts decided to switch off their AIS system for confidentiality and security reasons. After a thorough evaluation, FLYN-YACHTING offers the use of a fully private beacon whose recorded positions are exclusively available to the yacht and FLYN-YACHTING. This option is available as a yearly rental/subscription.
