Yacht Solutions, one of South East Asia’s leading superyacht service providers, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Ital Thai Marine to create Thailand’s first dedicated superyacht facility in Bangkok.

Located near the mouth of the Chao Phraya River in Samut Prakam, Yacht Solutions at Ital Thai Marine is being set up in response to the demand for more superyacht refit and repair facilities in the Asian region from both owners of superyachts based in Asia and those travelling from Europe and the US.

The 112,000sq m deep-water facility will offer full shipbuilding and repair capabilities plus a bonded warehouse and in-house design office. Yacht Solutions at Ital Thai Marine is ISO 9001:2000 rated and boasts a lifting capacity up to 95m and 3,500 tonnes. It has access to two 115m dry docks, 300m alongside berthing, a floating dock up to 160m and 5000 tonnes lift capacity, making this the largest superyacht repair facility in Southeast Asia.
