What are ship husbandry services?
Ship husbandry services refer to the essential port-based support required to ensure vessels operate safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with local and international regulations. These services include everything from coordinating crew changes and delivering urgent medical assistance, to handling spare parts, underwater inspection, provisions, and critical funds. Whether a vessel is in port for a few hours or several days, efficient ship husbandry is key to minimizing downtime and ensuring operational continuity.
