The Superyacht Service Centre (SYSC) in Ajman is entering its final stages of operational readiness, with key infrastructure and service capabilities coming online as planned. Purpose-built to meet the region’s growing superyacht maintenance and refit demands, SYSC builds on Gulf Craft Group’s four decades of proven servicing expertise, marking a significant step forward in expanding these capabilities into a dedicated, world-class facility.
A major milestone has been achieved with the successful certification load test of SYSC’s Cimolai 600-ton travel lift, confirming full readiness for heavy-lift operations. This critical asset enables the safe and efficient handling of yachts up to 60 metres, supported by an additional 75-ton lift dedicated to smaller leisure craft and day-to-day service requirements.
SYSC’s marina and waterfront infrastructure are also nearing completion, with deep-water berthing at a depth of 6 metres and a dedicated service quay designed to accommodate up to eight yachts and boats, alongside an in-water berth of up to 80 metres. Two dedicated lift berths, one serving the Cimolai 600-ton hoist and the other supporting the 75-ton lift zone, ensure smooth vessel movement between water and shore with direct access to maintenance operations.
Onshore, SYSC is supported by a complete ecosystem of administrative offices, workshops, and specialised tool storage, enabling multidisciplinary teams to deliver full-spectrum refit and maintenance works entirely in-house. From mechanical servicing and class-approved repairs to painting, carpentry, and interior works, SYSC is equipped to provide responsive, high-quality support for yachts operating across the Middle East and beyond.
