Services

Clients are allocated an experienced Fleet Manager who is responsible for understanding their needs and tailoring our service to their exact requirements. This is a very important part of what we do at DSNM as it allows us to maintain the highest level of customer care and service and a personal relationship with each client.

Our in-house chart correcting team are fully trained to UKHO standards and available to update charts at short notice. This could include charts which you keep onboard but do not have time to maintain so can be sent to us for correcting, or updating of inactive folios kept within our storage facility before they are sent back for use onboard.

dsnm is the global partner for NAVTOR in the Superyacht market, offering PAYS digital charting in addition to our bespoke navigational management service.

NAVTOR distributes digital charts and publications from the most trustworthy and comprehensive databases, such as ADMIRALTY Vector Chart Service (AVCS) with over 15,800 official ENCs.

With a PAYS subscription, the navigator can immediately access the globally available ENCs, free of charge, for planning purposes. By using vessel tracking data, the service only charges for those ENC charts that have actually been crossed by the vessel’s keel during any voyage. This is more convenient, economical and transparent compared to traditional ENC subscription models, which are based on set areas and time scales.

We are extremely proud of our training collaboration with the prestigious Warsash Superyacht Academy. This exciting partnership offers a full range of deck courses including our very own bespoke Bridge Operation Refresher Course.

Compass is our own innovative piece of software designed and built by the team at dsnm. This chart correction and management software provides users with a multitude of new features, currently unavailable with any other software on the market. For more information on compass click here.

DSNM has worked with clients over the years during the initial build process to help plan and execute their navigational requirements and ensuring the client has everything they require to be compliant. We have found that DSNM's involvement in the early stages of a build project has proven to be very beneficial to the client in the long run.

We can advise captains and crew of all the publications required to ensure compliance is met. We also have the knowledge and expertise to advise and recommend the appropriate systems and equipment needed on board. We have contacts with many other experts in the industry and can negotiate better prices on your behalf.

DSNM manage all digital subscriptions on behalf of the client. This includes Transas, ADP, Regs4Yachts and all S57 official ECDIS including ARCS and Vector updates. This consolidates all updates and ensures they are externally managed by a DSNM Fleet Manager. The shipment of discs is included in the DSNM service fee.

DSNM offer a full range of paper and electronic charts to clients ensuring compliance. We ensure that all charts dispatched are corrected and up-to-date. A full range of navigation equipment is available from 2B pencils to binoculars and sextants. We ensure all our products are always of high quality and review suppliers on a regular basis.

Included in the annual service fee is the facility for us to store all your inactive chart folios and publications until needed in fully insured premises. This not only saves space on board but then allows us to correct them right up to date before sending them back. Perfect for crossing folios which may be out of use for months at a time.

DSNM manage all new edition charts and publications for clients ensuring the yacht is adhering to SOLAS chapter V requirements. Your dedicated Fleet Manager will work closely with you to ensure your outfit is fully up to date and always compliant to current regulations.

We also manage the correction system for you with use of our remote access software, this allows us to ensure the database on board is kept up to date and actually shows the data it should – obviously an out of date database is useless, so when it comes to new editions we advise you of what’s out and do not wait for you to tell us (again saving you time).

Regs4yachts Digital Maritime Regulations (DMR) combines flag state regulations with IMO, ILO and EU legislation. It is a service that many Superyacht customers feel is irreplaceable and saves them time and money. Once logged in, it is simple to find the legislation that you are looking for as all documentation is keyword searchable.
