Frequently Asked Questions
Quick Answers to Common Questions About Us
What is Capital Yacht Management?
Capital Yacht Management is a full-service yacht company based in Washington DC that offers charter experiences, yacht management services, and purchase assistance for clients looking to enjoy the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay.
What makes Capital Yacht Management different from other yacht companies?
Unlike most companies that focus on only one aspect of yachting, we provide comprehensive services covering the entire yacht ownership lifecycle – from purchase assistance to management and charter opportunities. We also uniquely offer services for both USCG licensed captains who can operate vessels themselves and clients who require a captain.
What does your yacht management service include?
Our yacht management services include routine maintenance, cleaning, winterization, system checks, repairs coordination, slip/marina management, insurance administration, and financial reporting.
How does yacht management benefit boat owners?
Our management services save owners time and stress by handling all aspects of vessel maintenance and care. We also help reduce costs through preventative maintenance and can offset ownership expenses by managing charter opportunities.
Can you help offset my ownership costs?
Yes, through our charter management program, we can help offset ownership costs by chartering your vessel when you’re not using it, subject to your approval and schedule.
Do I need boating experience to use your services?
No. While we welcome experienced boaters, we provide professional captains for clients without boating experience or licenses. Our services are designed to accommodate all experience levels.
Do you provide a captain for charters?
Yes, we provide USCG licensed captains for clients who don’t have their own boating license. Clients who are licensed captains themselves have the option to operate the vessel.
