As Central Agent, we take full responsibility for the commercial operation of your vessel — from marketing and broker relations to charter execution.
- Central agency with active representation to 3,000+ brokers globally
- Custom marketing: photography, e-brochure, platform listings, social media
- Charter calendar optimised for yield without crowding owner access
- Every booking managed end-to-end: MYBA contract to post-charter settlement
- Greek charter licence and VAT compliance built in
A yacht sitting idle between your own trips is a depreciating asset with running costs. Charter income offsets those costs — but only if someone is actively marketing the vessel, managing the bookings, and protecting your interests in every contract. ADY is synonymous with high-quality charter in the Eastern Mediterranean. We have been doing this since 1972.
As Central Agent, ADY represents the vessel exclusively to the global charter market. This is an active commercial role — not passive listing management. We market directly to the broker network we have built over fifty years, manage availability and pricing strategy through the season, and handle every aspect of charter execution. As a MYBA member, every charter is conducted under MYBA standard contract terms.
What You Get
- Active commercial representation to over 3,000 brokers globally — relationships built over fifty years, not a passive listing on a platform
- A custom marketing programme for your yacht — professional photography, branded e-brochure, listings on Yachtfolio, YachtCharterFleet, and CharterWorld, social media campaigns, broker circulars, and newsletter distribution
- Charter readiness assessment — how the yacht needs to be set up for charter, including presentation standards, equipment, and crew training
- Charter calendar optimised for yield without crowding out your own access — ADY coordinates bookings around your plans
- Every booking managed end-to-end — MYBA contract, crew briefing, APA advance, post-charter settlement
- Real-time visibility through ADY's management platform — charter performance, booking pipeline, financial reporting, all accessible on demand
- Fluency with Greek charter licence regime and VAT treatment — 24% VAT for charters under 48 hours, 6.5% for longer — ADY handles compliance
Marketing & Visibility
The market cannot book what it cannot see. ADY builds and executes a marketing programme tailored to your vessel's strengths and competitive position:
- Professional photography — aerial, exterior, interior, lifestyle — curated to 60-120 hero images
- Branded e-brochure auto-populated from your vessel data, spec-forward layout, digital and print-ready
- Platform presence: Yachtfolio, YachtCharterFleet, CharterWorld, ADY website
- Social media launch and ongoing campaigns across Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook
- Broker launch circular on day one, followed by seasonal newsletters and rate updates
- Performance tracking: enquiries per yacht, booking conversion, intervention when a yacht underperforms
Every Charter, Managed End-to-End
From the first enquiry to post-charter settlement, ADY handles the operational and administrative layer so the captain and crew can focus on the guests:
- MYBA contract preparation and broker negotiation
- Preference sheet management and guest documentation
- Cruising permit coordination and port authority formalities
- Crew charter briefing and service standard alignment
- APA advance management and disbursement tracking
- Post-charter settlement — prompt, transparent, documented
- Monthly charter yield reporting to the owner
The Outcome
Your yacht works for you commercially. You receive a yield, real-time visibility through our platform, and as much or as little involvement as you choose. The broker network knows your vessel because ADY is actively representing it to 3,000 contacts worldwide — not because it is listed somewhere.
