Operating reality
We review production status, WIP maturity, build sequence, engineering release, supplier dependencies, quality discipline, workforce assumptions, warranty exposure, and facility constraints.
Service / Shipyards and builders
Shipyard and Yacht Builder Acquisition Diligence
Acquiring a shipyard or yacht builder is rarely just an asset purchase. The real risk sits in work-in-progress, customer promises, supplier confidence, workforce capability, IP control, build quality, and the restart sequence.
Customer and restart exposure
Customer deposits, delayed deliveries, unfinished vessels, change orders, and warranty obligations can move the economics more than the headline price. We test what must be stabilised first.
Transaction perimeter
The review helps buyers understand what should transfer, what should be excluded, what needs verification, and where legal, technical, and commercial protections must align.
Typical questions
