How does it work?

Boats and Yachts are loaded onto ships by port cranes or specialized Heavy Lift ships.

On certain routings also ‘float on- float off’ services exist, however these services do not sail to all destinations, as passing the Suez and Panama Canal becomes very expensive.

A boat is lifted from the water to the ship by heavy lift cranes and is placed on a suitable shipping cradle!
