What G&K YACHTING SA does

G&K Yachting S.A is a privately held Greek yacht refit and service company founded in 1970 and headquartered in Perama, Greece — a location the company describes as the heart of the Greek yacht maintenance industry. The company delivers an integrated suite of services to private and commercial yacht owners globally, spanning refit and repair, dedicated project management, new build construction oversight, scheduled maintenance, naval architecture and mechanical engineering, spare parts supply, warehouse storage, and lifetime post-completion support. Its primary customer segment is owners of yachts ranging from routine maintenance clients to owners of iconic and pioneer vessels requiring complex conversion projects.

The operational backbone is a Lloyd's Register (LR) certified, fully equipped in-house workshop staffed by certified welders, skilled workers, fitters, electricians, electronic technicians, programmers, carpenters, cooling and hydraulic technicians, naval architects, mechanical engineers, and qualified supervisors. This workshop functions as a one-stop technical service center offering turnkey solutions, complemented by a web-based project management interface that allows clients to monitor progress and receive drafted reports. The company secures dry dock slots across multiple yards and maintains close working relationships with Class and Flag surveyors, as well as authorized dealers and representatives of all major yacht equipment brands for priority spare parts access.

G&K Yachting generates revenue through project-based professional services contracts with clear quotations, contract agreements, and managerial accounting. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is direct-to-client via on-site field teams at client yacht locations, with a global market reach anchored by its Perama headquarters. The go-to-market motion is sales-led and relationship-driven, relying on over 50 years of industry reputation, word-of-mouth referrals, and a lifetime support model that creates ongoing engagement beyond individual projects. No external funding, acquisitions, or public market activity is disclosed in the source material.
