Vessel Management and Care
Owning a boat at the marina means much more than weekend sailing. Humidity, drained batteries, cold engines, and unexpected storms can turn your boat into a problem.
At Altair we offer comprehensive boat management and maintenance services along the Catalan coast: from periodic surveillance to annual haul-outs, including our "ready to sail" service before each outing. We're captains and technicians physically present at the marina every day, not an intermediary agency.
Does any of this sound familiar?
You Don't Have Time
Work, family, daily life... and your boat there, waiting.
You're Far Away
Every time you think of your boat you wonder: is everything okay?
You're Not Technical
Spotting problems early requires expert eyes.
"Owning a boat should be a pleasure, not a source of stress. At Altair we handle everything so you only have to show up and sail."
What we do
Surveillance and Periodic Checks
- Post-storm inspection: when conditions are rough, we check the marina, inspect moorings and fenders, and send you confirmation with photos via WhatsApp.
- Monthly engine runs: we start the engine until it reaches operating temperature. It's the only way to prevent costly failures from inactivity.
- Bilge, battery, and humidity checks: we ventilate cabins and confirm everything stays dry and charged.
Ready-to-Sail Service
- Exterior and interior cleaning before your arrival.
- Fridge powered up and fresh water tanks filled if requested.
- Navigation check: we confirm electronics power up and safety equipment is current.
Technical Maintenance Coordination
- We manage repairs with the marina's top-tier technicians.
- We oversee all work until completion.
- We organize annual haul-outs and antifouling (refit and repairs) without you taking time off.
Boat Relocations
Want to take your boat to the islands or change ports? Our professional captains handle the relocation with all necessary documentation.
