1. C.E. CERTIFICATION

All yachts imported into a European Union member nation must possess a valid C.E. Certification. Many times a yacht has been built with a C.E. stamp, however, several older models and American-built boats will not have one. Yachts without a C.E. certificate must be inspected and pass certain safety requirements before a stamp can be issued.

For clients yachting in Europe, your Denison yacht broker will assist in securing a current C.E. marking for your next yacht. We’ll make sure the process is affordable, timely and easy for you.

2. ELECTRICAL CONVERSION 

Fewer things are more annoying for a yacht-owner than pulling into a foreign marina only to realize the shore power doesn't match with their American plugs.

Getting your yacht ready for cruising anywhere in the world is part of our job. We can help you convert your yacht so she can operate at all the world’s marinas.
