Acquera Yachting, a leading global player in customized services for superyachts based in Venice, announces a major strategic expansion in the Caribbean. This operation allows owners and captains to benefit from a tailor-made service that combines the experience and local knowledge of over 30 yacht agents spread across seven offices with the global and innovative vision of Acquera, to ensure seamless support at every stage of the cruise.

Acquera Yachting, a leading player in the superyacht services sector, is strengthening its presence in a crucial region for the yachting industry. Active since 2021 in the Grenadines through an exclusive partnership with local leaders Erika's Yacht Agents, the company has now integrated its ally, extending its coverage up to Sint Maarten. This growth has also been supported by the acquisition of two other important agencies: Ben's Yacht Services on Saint Lucia and Cobra Yacht Services on Dominica. With the opening of new offices in Sint Maarten, Antigua and St. Barth, Acquera Yachting is now able to cover a wide territory, offering a continuous and highly specialized service.

Acquera Yachting's in-depth knowledge of local regulations, anchorage areas and technical requirements makes it the ideal partner to ensure smooth operations and impeccable service, tailored to the specific needs of each client. In a territory where logistics and the availability of supplies can be challenging, Acquera Yachting stands out for its ability to guarantee efficiency and fast response times, thanks to its widespread network of offices in strategic locations.

The digital platform AcqueraPro, successfully launched in the Mediterranean in the 2024 season, will be extended to the Caribbean. This innovative tool is designed to simplify cruise management, allowing captains, crews and charter brokers to easily access the technical and entertainment information collected by Acquera Yachting agents, thus improving the overall experience.

Stefano Tositti, CEO of Acquera, comments: "This expansion represents a crucial step for Acquera. The Caribbean is a strategic area in the yachting world, a territory we know well thanks to our long-standing collaboration with excellent partners such as Erika's Yacht Agents, which we are now happy to integrate with the other companies under the Acquera Yachting brand. In this way, we can guarantee a continuous, consistent and high-quality service. With the addition of the Caribbean, combined with the Mediterranean and the Middle East, we are now able to cover all the key yachting hotspots all year round, offering our clients, and our team, the opportunity to benefit from the only global player in the market that can be called truly modern and transparent."

Ichel Moeslikan, Caribbean Operations Manager, comments: "I am thrilled to be leading the Acquera Yachting project in the Caribbean, coordinating operations from the Grenadines to Sint Maarten. Our team, well known and appreciated by the yachting community, will offer clients a wider range of services and greater efficiency. Captains and owners will be able to cruise the Caribbean with the assurance of excellent and continuous service."

With this expansion, Acquera Yachting further consolidates its global presence, already extended to the Mediterranean and the Middle East, establishing itself as a major international player in the luxury yachting industry.
