Marine Leisure Logistics in the UK

Marine Leisure Oct24

Moving yachts, racing equipment and event infrastructure across international borders requires precise coordination, customs compliance and reliable transport execution. Through our Global Sports & Events Services (GSES) offering, we deliver marine leisure logistics for sailing teams, superyacht owners and event organisers, serving as a single point of contact for transport, customs and on-site delivery across global racing circuits and international yacht movements.

Whether you're a professional racing team, an event organiser managing multiple venues, or a yacht owner or management company relocating assets globally, we provide flexible logistics solutions tailored to your timeline, budget and technical requirements while reducing administrative complexity and compliance risks.

Our UK-based project team combines marine leisure logistics capabilities with integrated freight, customs clearance and event operations. Through our global network covering major sailing destinations, we manage yacht movements, sailing event logistics and high-value cargo for racing circuits, sailing series and regattas operating across multiple countries and venues, often on tight schedules.

From yacht transport and customs clearance to venue-to-venue logistics and on-site operations, we keep your teams, equipment and events moving worldwide:

  • Yacht and out-of-gauge transport by road, sea and air
  • Sailing event logistics for global racing circuits, sailing series and regattas
  • Temporary imports, temporary exports and ATA Carnets
  • UK and cross-border customs clearance
  • Ship spares logistics with door-to-deck delivery
  • Storage, consolidation and reverse logistics
  • Craning, lifting and marina handling coordination

UK Customs Expertise

Post-Brexit customs controls have increased the complexity of moving yachts, racing equipment and event infrastructure in and out of the UK. Our in-house customs team helps reduce delays and compliance risks through:

  • Fast clearance through UK ports and airports
  • Accurate handling of temporary imports and re-exports
  • Compliance across multi-country race calendars
  • Independent customs guidance and advice

Logistics expertise across global sailing events

From the maritime hub of Southampton, we have delivered logistics services for some of the world's most demanding sailing programmes. Our experience includes The Ocean Race, previously known as The Volvo Ocean Race, where we have served as Official Logistics Provider across multiple editions.

Emissions reporting for marine leisure logistics

As sustainability becomes a growing priority across the marine leisure sector, we provide CO2e emissions reporting to help quantify the environmental impact of transport activities. This gives teams, organisers and yacht owners greater visibility into freight emissions, supporting sustainability reporting requirements and informed operational decisions.

When timing, customs compliance and global coordination matter, experience makes the difference. Contact our marine leisure logistics experts at [email protected]
