Where Expertise Meets Excellence
Fairport Global’s expert team is well-versed in yacht safety, compliance, new builds, refits, and technical support. Recognizing the importance of safety and security for all yachts, they manage adherence to essential practices and regulations. They expertly guide compliance with over 40 maritime conventions, encompassing 800+ codes on safety, security, and pollution, ensuring vessels meet current industry standards and amendments.
Use of Fairport Global’s real time Yacht Management Software, “ManageMyVessel”, is an integral part of our Yacht Management service for both Full ISM and Mini-ISM. With 24/7 online access to the entire ISM System, including the initial set up of the ISM System, including crew training and familiarization with the system, owner, captain and yacht manager can monitor the yacht’s accounts, maintenance, schedules, crew information and much more real time information at anytime from anywhere. The portal can be used to verify and maintain yacht statutory and classification society certification.
The purpose of the International Safety Management (ISM) Code is to provide an international standard for the safe management and operation of ships and for pollution prevention. The code establishes safety-management objectives and requires a safety management system (SMS) to be established on board the yacht.
The ISM is the responsibility of the people who manage and operate the vessel.
The ISM Code applies to all commercially registered yachts of 500 gross tons and above, including commercial yachts.
A Mini-ISM is applicable for yachts under 500 tons that are commercially registered. The Mini-ISM includes the same Safety Management System (SMS) as the Full-ISM. Mini-ISM can also be applied voluntarily to non-commercial vessels under 500 gross tons for sake of enhancing onboard safety practices.
The Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) is an International Labour Organization convention, established in 2006 as the fourth pillar of international maritime law and embodies “all up-to-date standards of existing international maritime labour Conventions and Recommendations, as well as the fundamental principles to be found in other in other international labour Conventions.”
