San Diego Yacht Management That Takes the Work Off Your Plate
One point of contact for maintenance, inspections, vendors, and ongoing vessel care: organized, documented, and reported back to you.
Owning a yacht should mean more time enjoying it, not tracking service schedules, chasing vendors, or wondering what was done last.
Lykos coordinates the ongoing care of your yacht, from routine maintenance and inspections to outside vendors and service needs. We keep the details organized, document the work, and keep you informed in clear terms.
You make the important decisions. We handle the coordination and follow-through.
Inside The Management Program
Every program is built around your yacht and how you use it. These are the pillars.
- Vendor scheduling and oversight
- Routine maintenance coordination
- Appearance care, including washdowns, hull cleaning, and detailing
- Regular systems inspections
- Documentation and reporting on all completed work
- One point of contact for all of the above
Routine mechanical work is often performed in-house rather than passed to a third party. Oil and filter changes, impellers, zincs, and fluid changes are covered in detail on our boat mechanical service page.
One Point of Contact for Your Yacht's Ongoing Care
A yacht depends on mechanics, electricians, divers, detailers, and other specialists. Without management, you're the one keeping track of their schedules, access to the vessel, invoices, and follow-up.
With Lykos, you have one point of contact. We schedule vendors, coordinate access, oversee the work when needed, document what was completed, and keep you updated on what deserves attention next.
Fewer calls. Less to keep track of. More confidence in how your yacht is being cared for.
Yacht Management Backed by Mechanical Expertise
Great yacht management takes more than scheduling vendors. It helps to understand the systems being maintained.
Your Lykos management program is overseen by an ABYC Certified Technician with hands-on experience servicing engines, transmissions, generators, and onboard systems.
That technical background gives you more informed oversight. We can better evaluate maintenance needs, understand vendor recommendations, recognize mechanical concerns, and give you clearer guidance when decisions need to be made.
We don't just coordinate the work. We understand the work.
That same hands-on experience also carries into the services we perform, including routine mechanical maintenance and engine fresh water flush systems designed to help reduce salt buildup and protect marine cooling systems.
Three Steps To Managed Ownership
Getting started is deliberately simple.
The Walkthrough
We inspect the vessel, learn how you use it, and discuss your priorities. By the end, we both know what belongs on our plate instead of yours.
We Take The Helm
We coordinate maintenance, inspections, and vendors, oversee the work as it happens, and keep you informed along the way.
You Step Aboard
You enjoy the yacht. We continue the oversight, track what needs attention, and send documented updates so nothing catches you off guard.
What San Diego Owners Ask About Management
How Is Yacht Management Priced?
Every program is scoped to the yacht, its systems, and how much you want taken off your plate, so pricing follows the walkthrough rather than a rate card. Once we understand your needs, we recommend a level of management and give you clear pricing before anything begins.
Can You Work With My Existing Captain Or Vendors?
Yes. We work alongside captains rather than replace them. If you already have vendors you trust, we fold them into the program and coordinate their visits. When a specialist is needed that you do not have, we source one and oversee the work.
Can You Manage My Yacht If I Live Outside San Diego?
Yes, and this is where management earns its keep. We act as your presence at the dock, overseeing the vessel, coordinating its care, and sending documented updates so you know its condition wherever you are.
How Does Reporting Work?
After inspections and completed work, you receive a written update covering what was done, what was found, and anything that needs a decision from you. The records stay with the vessel, building a service history in one place.
What Happens When Something Needs Repair?
We document the issue, tell you what we found, and recommend a next step. Routine mechanical work can often be handled in-house by your manager, and larger jobs are coordinated with the right specialist while we keep you informed throughout.
