VIRTUAL PIER
Yachts Support and Assistance
Thanks to the ten-year experience acquired in the management of boats and transfers with shipowners and organizations in the nautical sector, Antonio Nappi has developed "Virtual Pier", a virtual dock where any guest pleasure boat can benefit from assistance and support for short and long periods to overcome all technical problems in a simple, efficient and economical way.
​
The boat is one of the most beautiful things to enjoy but it requires time, attention, passion and money and it is useful to have a professional in the sector at your side to follow everything and optimize the costs.

Yachts Storage
From researching and identifying the shipyard to choose for winter storage to following the phases of hauling and launching the boat, from defining with the Owner the work to be done on board to following the programming and progress so as not to have delays for launching, these are some important actions related to the winter and/or periodic stop of a boat.
​
Even the MOVEMENTS of the boat on wheels for transport to and from shipyards require particular attention mainly for the boat.
​
The crane where to pull, move the boat, identify the best transporter, as well as resolve any inconveniences and/or unforeseen events on a weekday always creates difficulties and problems in the organization of work and on a day usually not dedicated to leisure.
​​​
Virtual Pier proposes to be alongside the Owner to optimize the costs and results of all these activities.

Organization of boat transfers and weather support
Whether in the Atlantic or Indian Ocean or simply in the waters of your region, the sea transfers of the vessel always require particular attention to the countless technical, logistical, weather and other aspects that must be taken into account.
​
Transferring a boat, especially with family and/or loved ones on board is always a responsibility that requires a lot of attention in preparing the boat but also in the organization on land and for navigation.
​
The "Virtual Pier" in the previous phases, but also during (remotely) and after the transfer, supports the Owner or to make the organization of the departure and transfer easier by organizing the stages (in all its details), the crew, the moorings and following and analyzing the forecasts and the weather before and during the transfer.
All this increases safety on board and optimizes costs.
