Yacht Management

Yacht Management – Absentee Owner Services

Trusted While You're Away.

Inspected Like It’s Underway. Bringing your yacht to Hampton Roads for the season but heading back north or out of town? Let Virginia Maritime Solutions be your trusted presence on the dock.

Led by Captain Mike Provost, a retired Navy SWCC, 100-ton USCG Master; we inspect and maintain your vessel as if it were preparing for a mission — not just sitting idle.

We Don’t Just “Watch” Boats — We Operate Them. Using our proven inspection checklist, built from managing expedition yachts like the 63’ Nordhavn Karma, we perform scheduled walk-throughs, test runs, and systems checks to keep your yacht seaworthy, secure, and ready at a moment’s notice. We handle the details so you can fly in, provision, and go — or just rest easy.
