Specialist Yacht & Cruiser Shipping
Transporting a yacht or vessel involves more than getting it from one port to another. Every movement has its own requirements, from the dimensions and destination of the vessel through to preparation, documentation, loading, customs clearance and final delivery.
Panamax coordinates yacht and marine transport throughout Australia and internationally, working with boat manufacturers, marine businesses and private owners. Depending on the vessel and destination, transport may involve containerised shipping, break-bulk, roll-on/roll-off, road transport or a combination of services.
Each movement is considered individually. Vessel dimensions, transport requirements, origin, destination and the different stages of the journey are reviewed before the transport solution is developed. This allows Panamax to determine a practical approach suited to the requirements of the vessel rather than applying the same process to every shipment.
