Your personal Private Yacht Office for buying, selling, owning and enjoying your yacht.

Private Yacht Office
One point of contact for buying, owning and using your yacht.
A yacht should create freedom – not additional administration.
Many decisions are connected: yacht, use, budget, technology, running costs, berth, specialists and future support.
SIMONIS brings these topics into order, prepares decisions and accompanies you from first orientation through inspection, negotiation and handover to ownership, use, value preservation and a later sale.
The focus is not on isolated tasks, but on the connecting thread across the yacht’s full lifecycle.
The yacht lifecycle
Five phases. One consistent owner’s perspective.
In each phase, decisions, risks, specialists and next steps are put into order. This creates a clear path from the first idea to a later sale.
Search, inspection and purchase
Yacht, documents, technical checks, market price, negotiation and specialists are coordinated within the mandate.
Handover and setup
Handover, equipment, berth, insurance, maintenance plan and practical readiness are prepared.
Ownership, use, operation and value preservation
Maintenance, yard periods, refits, ongoing decisions and potential commercial use are guided from the owner’s side.
Change, sale or the next yacht
When your use or situation changes, sale, replacement or repositioning are prepared in a structured way.
Owner option
Can your yacht contribute to its running costs?
For suitable yachts, a professionally prepared commercial use may help reduce running costs. SIMONIS works with specialist advisers to assess whether the yacht, registration, berth, insurance, technical condition and operating model are suitable. If the model is legally possible and economically sensible, MAREYA can become part of the marketing and experience concept.
Every model starts with an individual feasibility and economic review. Cost coverage is never promised as a general rule.
Review commercial useYacht Brokerage
Buying or selling – with a clear view of the market.
Selling, searching and current yachts are explained separately. A search mandate looks at the accessible market, not only at SIMONIS listings.

Yacht search mandate
Within an agreed search and owner-representation mandate, SIMONIS reviews public listings, the international network and suitable off-market opportunities. The decisive point is which yacht fits your use, requirements and budget.

One point of contact. The right specialists.
Specialist work such as surveys, legal, tax, insurance or technical advice is provided by qualified experts in their own responsibility. SIMONIS clarifies the need, compares options, coordinates contributions and keeps your interests in view.

Your interests. Clearly represented.
Offers, works, handovers, refits and problem cases are assessed and followed from the owner’s side.

02Which responsibility does SIMONIS take?
03What happens in concrete terms?
04Which specialists are required?
05What is the result for you?

Frank Simonis
My work with yachts did not begin in sales.
I began my professional path in the yacht industry in 1988 with Canel & Sohn in Hamburg. My work led from yacht equipment to yacht electronics and technical project management, then to the sale of motor and sailing yachts and international brokerage.
From 2003 to 2011, I ran SIMONIS EURL Yachtelectronic & Consultancy in Nice for nine years, supporting technical projects on yachts and superyachts. Since 2018, my professional focus has been yacht sales and brokerage: first selling motor and sailing yachts, then international brokerage and the long-term support of private owners.
Today, in the Private Yacht Office, I combine more than 25 years of yacht-industry experience, more than 35 years in sales and a lifelong closeness to sailing with personal guidance around buying, selling, owning and using a yacht.
Many standards from the superyacht world are not a question of yacht size. They are a question of attitude.Start a personal conversation
MAREYA · Yacht Experiences

A single experience may last a few hours, a day or an evening. Several experiences can be combined into a weekend, several days or an entire stay.
