Praxis, incorporating the team formerly known as Sarnia Yachts, has over 50 years of experience in yacht ownership and operational services. Licensed by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission, the division provides a comprehensive range of administration, management, and fiduciary solutions.

The team works alongside yacht owners, family offices, legal professionals, and brokers to deliver end-to-end support for both private and commercial yachts. The company specializes in navigating the complex regulatory and financial environment of the yachting sector.

Services include the formation of ownership structures in jurisdictions such as the British Virgin Islands, the Isle of Man, and Malta, as well as flag registration and European VAT management. Every yacht remains compliant with international laws while providing asset protection and administrative stability for the owner.

Crew management is a core component of the service offering, covering the full personnel cycle from recruitment and employment to payroll and insurance coordination.

By combining deep industry knowledge with a meticulous attention to detail, the team manages the daily complexities of yacht and crew administration, allowing owners to focus on their journey.
