Shipping

The Isle of Man has a thriving ship register operated by the Isle of Man Marine Administration, which is part of the British register. Isle of Man registered vessels fly the red ensign and have the benefits of British consular support and naval protection. Low registration fees and the absence of annual tonnage taxes combined with the excellent service provided by the Marine Administration and the wealth of ship managers operating in the Isle of Man make the Island an excellent jurisdiction for shipping.

The Island is also one of the world’s leading centres for super-yacht registration and management.

At Turnbull we regularly advise in relation to shipping issues including:

• Sale and purchase
• Ship registration
• Ship and asset finance
• Issues relating to shipbuilding and repairs of Manx vessels
