Gulf Craft announced that its Superyacht Service Center 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’s marina and waterfront infrastructure will support deep-water berthing and have two dedicated lift berths, including the Cimolai 600-ton hoist.

“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,” Gulf Craft said in a statement. “This critical asset enables the safe and efficient handling of yachts up to 60 meters, supported by an additional 75-ton lift dedicated to smaller leisure craft and day-to-day service requirements.”

Onshore, SYSC is supported by 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, the statement said.
