A Message from Adam Frost

“I must say that it has been an absolute privilege to have acted as agent to some of the worlds largest yachts, and the majority of Superyachts that have visited Thailand over the past twenty-five years.

As the industry has grown, so in turn has our knowledge, understanding and experience with handling the needs of visiting Captains and Owners. Seal Superyachts Thailand is more than capable of handling any size of Superyacht, fulfilling any type of requirement and meeting any request. We look forward to serving each and every Yacht and Superyacht that chooses to use us as their agent.”

Testimonials

M/y titania.

"Adam and the team have done an outstanding job looking after us during our previous 2 stays in Thailand... They were solely responsible for inward/outward clearance and formalities, assistance with bunkering, provisioning and concierge service and liaison with local contractors, port authorities and local regulatory bodies.

They provide an excellent and vital service for visiting yachts and have ensured our smooth and seamless visits in Thailand... I highly recommend them."

Captain Graeme Hampson, M/Y Titania

M/Y Vibrant Curiosity

"With a choice of agencies to work with in the region my decision to work with SEAL Superyachts came from discussions with other Captains of standing within the industry...

From the outset with our detailed pre-cruise discussions, through to final invoicing and backups may I say that you and your teams service was faultless. While the yacht was based at Yacht Haven Phuket in between seasons SEAL Superyachts was always at hand to assist the yacht whenever needed."

Captain Jeff Dunn, M/Y Vibrant Curiosity

"I would like to say thank you from all of us on board and the owners for all that SEAL Superyachts did to make our visit to the Phuket area and beyound an immensely enjoyable experience ... not only as a result of your service with regard to provisioning ... your professionalism and knowledge of the area and its customs ... allowed us to enjoy the trip without any hindrance or bureaucratic delays.

Please add me to your list of satisfied customers, and if you have any future potential visitors pass on my details so they can get our experiences first hand."

“I think the reason that Quay Crew is (in my opinion and most of my colleagues’ opinions too) the industry’s leading agent is down to the culture of integrity, honesty and real care that permeates your company, and the careful selection of a candidate that will stay in the job. Long may it continue. I will never hesitate to use, recommend or assist Quay Crew for as long as I’m in yachting, and after.”

Chief Officer – 70m Yacht

“Having moved into the yachting industry from the commercial sector, Sam gave me valuable feedback on my CV and routes into the industry. I can highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for their next engineering position as she does her best to make sure that the yacht is right for you.”

2nd Engineer – 52m Yacht

“Having been in contact with Caroline since the summer, I felt the whole way through my search application process that she was completely on my side and has supported me and given me the confidence to propel my career to the next level.”

Chief Stew – 60m Yacht

“I would just like to take this opportunity to express how amazing Max has been in finding myself and my partner a position on a brand-new build. Max has been such a rock star in not just finding me one job but two jobs, which I am absolutely grateful for. It’s really nice to have a crew agency like Quay Crew who are reliable, trustworthy as well as always wanting to consider your best interests. The team at Quay Crew are absolutely exceptional and I will always recommend only the best for them. ”

Captain – 30m+ Yacht

“The best crew agent I have ever dealt with…always on the ball, super efficient, attentive and always available. There are so many agencies that only care about the yachts because they are the ones paying and completely ignore the crew so I want to thank you for all your help. ”

Head of Service – 100m Yacht

At some point in the future, I plan to be on the opposite side of the interview process and Quay Crew will be the first agency that I reach out to.”

2nd Officer – 80m Yacht

His communication was absolutely exemplary and he went above and beyond to secure me a job. I would highly recommend Quay Crew to anyone.”

Deckhand – 90m Yacht

“I recently completed a 4 week trip through Quay crew on a yacht that Phil placed me on. I had applied for the role through other agencies but they refused [to put me forward] and Phil was the only recruiter that I spoke to who also saw flexibility in the job requirements. It’s a pleasure dealing with a recruiter that actually understands the role and the candidates suited for it. I hope to work with Phil and the Quay crew team again in the future.”

Changing Thailand’s Charter Rules

Posted on July 14, 2020

Stringent government regulations have posed a barrier for foreign-flagged charter growth in Thailand. However, as governments across ASEAN countries continue to explore the benefits of yacht chartering at the economic front, yacht chartering in Thailand could witness substantial growth.

Gordon Fernandes, co-founder of Asia Pacific Superyachts explains where the Charter Rules stand now and why the need for changes, as reported in Part III of a 4-part Asia – a world of possibility written by MaryAnne Edwards for Ocean Magazine .

While the Thai Minister of Transport granted a foreign superyacht a ‘charter licence’ in 2016 to give a sense of purpose to the newly launched Thailand Yacht Show, Thailand’s own Revenue Department (tax office) still requires the owner to import their yacht into Thailand first – and pay tax on its total value.

The article points out this is clearly a non-starter and has completely negated any benefits of obtaining the ‘licence’ in the first place. The key now is to persuade the Revenue Department that it would be better to allow yachts to come in and charter, and then just collect taxes on the charter revenue. They would already be automatically collecting tax on all the yacht’s spend on fuel, provisions, excursions, refit and repair etc, amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars.

Fernandes, reporting from the APS office in Phuket, states, “I am a firm believer that relaxation of the charter rules is essential. Not being able to charter simply here in Thailand is a massive barrier to growth in the industry and to a growth in ownership”.

“Charter is critical for Thailand and the rest of Asia as it provides the introduction to the superyacht lifestyle. Moreover, the more boats that are owned by Asians, the more the ability to charter will lead to more people loving the lifestyle a boat provides. Many people in Asia disliked the rocking and rolling of a boat, but technology has changed considerably over the years and zero speed stabilisers have added to the enjoyment of boating and WiFi capabilities have meant people can stay connected and work from their boats.”

“There is a growing demand for charter in the region. Opening up Thailand to charter would create much-needed jobs. We are already seeing far more Thais being employed in the industry compared to five years ago.”

Marinas are playing an increasingly important role globally and in South East Asia. Phuket marinas are ready for the rules to change and can handle all the needs of a superyacht. Berths in the resort island are available for yachts up to 130M’s in length at any one of Phuket’s many fully equipped marinas.

Fernandes notes there is a growing superyacht labor force with excellent docking facilities together with wonderful attractions and nearby island cruising. Superyacht visits are increasing exponentially and over the past 15 years approximately 1,500 yachts and cruisers visited the ‘Pearl of the Andaman’ annually.

“On the eastern side of the country, the Gulf of Thailand and Koh Samui are also seeing more superyachts visit each year”, adds Captain Charlie Dwyer, a co-founder of Asia Pacific Superyachts and based on Koh Samui.

“Cruising stunning islands and waters of the eastern area of Thailand prior to the pandemic were a stunning group of superyachts: the 61.42-metre M/y White Rabbit with support superyacht M/y Charley; 98-metre M/y Aviva; and 60.1-metre M/y Paraffin. Changes in Thailand’s Charter Rules will have a huge impact on vessels like these, interested in exploring the natural splendor of Thailand and South East Asia, away from the hustle & bustle of the Med and Caribbean.”

“Stringent government regulations pose a barrier for growth in the region”, adds Capt. Charlie, “However, as governments in Thailand and across the ASEAN countries continue to explore the benefits of yacht chartering at the economic front, the yacht chartering market in the region will witness substantial growth”.
