Experts in Yacht Management for a Seamless Journey

Our team has been involved in the support of pleasure craft and yachts in Hong Kong since 2004 and we are familiar with virtually every aspect of servicing yachts including preventive and regular maintenance. Over time we have built strong relationships with professional contractors and shipyards in Hong Kong and abroad if and when relevant.

It is our priority to strive to work in the spirit of fairness with clients who deserve an honest and transparent business relationship. This means accurate information, clear quotations and reliable accounting. 

Maintenance needs careful planning and continuous assessments of the condition of the yacht and her mechanical and electrical systems. Good planning saves an owner substantial amounts of money and aggravation. Planning allows for a budget to be made telling an owner what he is in for. No surprises.

Brand new innovative wakesurfing boats. Now available in Hong Kong.

As wakesurfing rises in popularity in Hong Kong, even surpassing wakeboarding – a similar, yet fundamentally different sport – surfing boat manufacturers have taken the opportunity to modify, refine, and upgrade their boat designs. Unlike wakeboarding, wakesurfing requires a particular set of features, such as a different engine placement and hull shape, alongside innovative and advanced equipment to provide an enjoyable, safe, and unforgettable wakesurfing experience.

The main difference between wakesurfing and wakeboarding is that with wakesurfing, you aren’t permanently attached to the boat via a rope. Wakeboarding gained popularity thanks to being an invigorating and fun sport in which you travel at high speeds across the water behind a boat. Wakesurfing is typically a slower – but by no means easier – sport in which you surf in the waves made by the boat’s engines. This provides surfers in Hong Kong with much easier and guaranteed access to surfable waves, provided the boat is designed correctly.

The design of the boat

The design of wakesurfing boats differs from wakeboarding boats in that there is a greater emphasis on your safety. Rather than jutting out of the back of the boat, the propellers are located on the bottom – safely out of reach of anyone in the water.

In addition to this, boats with a convex V-shaped hull ride deeper in the water, creating a bigger and more surfable wave. This is different from boats with flatter hulls that might be better for water skiing, for example.

Depending on the model of the boat, there is ample storage and a luxurious cockpit with plenty of space to move around in. There is also plenty of ballast weight on the boat for extra security without sacrificing any storage space.

Driving a new era of yachts and water sports boats in Hong Kong

Since its establishment, ASIAMARINE has focused on yacht rental, sales, and management. More than 20 years of experience and presence across Hong Kong and Asia, ASIAMARINE is at the forefront of the yachting industry.

In addition to luxury yachts, ASIAMARINE is now introducing new types of wakesurfing boats to provide watersport enthusiasts in Hong Kong with more exciting and safe options to take them into the water.

Interested in buying a wakesurfing boat, or have any questions? Visit one of our stores in Hong Kong or get in touch with us today.

Asia Marine Yacht Services (Hong Kong) and Asia Marine (Phuket)

Eric Noyel created Asia Marine Yacht Services in Hong Kong in 2012, and soon added in sister companies Riviera Orientale (charter) and Luxury Yacht Share Asia (fractional ownership). Vincent Tabuteau has been running Phuket-based Asia Marine for more than 25 years. Both companies are engaged in selling, chartering and managing yachts, and now they have joined forces.

"AMYS Hong Kong and AM Phuket, it's a natural connection," says Noyel. "Hong Kong people are frequent travellers to Phuket. It's probably the most popular nearby holiday destination. We have been building a boating and charter business in Hong Kong, and now we are directly referring charter clients to Asia Marine in Phuket, which was the intention all along. It's a seamless connection. Day charter cruises are gaining in popularity in Hong Kong, and day cruises are already the number one item on the Phuket charter menu “providing our customers with what they want in a destination they want to go to."


Vincent Tabuteau is a sailing man. Eric Noyel's department is motor yachts. "We are both learning about each other's side of the business, which are complementary," says Tabuteau. "Eric brings with him the expertise in luxury yachts, and Phuket is probably the main hub of luxury yacht charter in Asia at the moment, which is why joining together Asia Marine and AMYS is such a good idea."

Tabuteau and Noyel both understand that 'designed for Asia' does not necessarily mean padded-leather karaoke lounges. "It means the boat and its interior are designed for day usage by those who enjoy the sea."

Yacht Services (Asia)

Yacht Management

Maintenance, repairs, or upgrades takes time. When this is done correctly, you can be confident that your boat is seaworthy and is available to meet your needs.

Family boarding a yacht.webp

24/7 Support

Scheduled Upkeep

Time-sensitive Maintenance

Skippers' Concierge

Whether it's financial management and reporting, maintenance planning and supervision, boat relocation, or underway assistance, you can be assured that your vessel is secure and ready to fulfill your needs.

Perfect for a layup over winter or the typhoon season. Services include:

Planning maintenance and upgrades then optimally scheduling the work

Arranging skilled tradespeople and ensuring the tasks have been completed correctly

Sourcing parts so they are available when needed

Sea trials of the vessel to ensure all systems are functioning correctly

Cleaning and provisioning the boat so it is ready for you to step aboard and cast off

Moving your boat to your desired point of departure

This can be the result of an accident, equipment failure or you might just wish for some time off your boat freeing the boat up to have work undertaken. We provided services like those of scheduled upkeep, but they are typically smaller in scope and competed in a shorter period.

A service was born from firsthand experience.

Vessel management extends beyond day-to-day boat operations. Many of these tasks are best dealt with ashore with access to the internet and uninterpreted communications.

Marinas, fuel, hotels…

Reservations can be made, the progress of your vessel monitored, and facilities updated about your arrival.

Upkeep & repairs

Do you need your boat hoisted out for yard work, a marine electrician or gas fitter, sail repairs, or a bio clearance? To save you wasting time while you wait for availability, we can make these arrangements while you are underway.

Logistics & parts

When a part breaks at sea, Yachting Services (Asia) can locate a replacement and have it shipped to your next destination.

Ad hoc crew

We can provide additional crew for a lengthy or challenging leg or if you need to replace a current crew member.

Peace of mind

An experienced, shore-based contact assures you that someone is there to assist you whenever you need it. This can encompass:

Monitoring your progress and getting expert help should the unforeseen occur

Finding alternative anchorages or moorings at short notice

Obtaining local knowledge in places with inadequately surveyed charts

Drafting passage plans for future legs of a passage

Arranging a tow for engine breakdowns and other major equipment failures

Providing customised weather and route forecasting

Acting as a sounding board to talk through problems. Useful for the skipper but also for the crew if the skipper becomes incapacitated

Justice Clarence Thomas took more trips paid for by donor Harlan Crow, Senate panel reveals

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin says his committee has uncovered at least three additional trips given to Justice Clarence Thomas by GOP megadonor Harlan Crow as part of the panel’s ethics investigation into the Supreme Court.

Durbin, D-Ill., said Thursday the committee obtained information from Crow that Thomas took three trips, and at least six flights, on Crow’s private jet in 2017, 2019 and 2021. The panel also found evidence of private jet travel during trips to Indonesia and California that Thomas recently disclosed in an amendment to a 2019 financial disclosure report.

The Democratic-led Judiciary panel launched the investigation last year after several reports that Thomas had for years received undisclosed expensive gifts , including international travel, from Crow. The committee has since pushed the Supreme Court to adopt a stronger ethics code as trips by Thomas and Justice Samuel Alito came to light, along with six-figure book deals received by other justices.

The new information “makes it crystal clear that the highest court needs an enforceable code of conduct, because its members continue to choose not to meet the moment,” Durbin said in a statement.

Scott Applewhite, file)

There was no immediate comment from the court on the Senate report. In the past, Thomas has maintained that he is not required to disclose the many trips he and his wife took that were paid for the Texas megadonor because Crow and his wife Kathy are “among our dearest friends,” Thomas said in an April 2023 statement that he was advised by colleagues on the nation’s highest court and others in the federal judiciary that “this sort of personal hospitality from close personal friends, who did not have business before the Court, was not reportable.”

Thomas, 75, and his wife, Virginia, have traveled on Crow’s yacht and private jet in Indonesia as well as stayed at his private resort in New York’s Adirondack Mountains, ProPublica reported last year. ProPublica wrote that it could have cost more than $500,000 had Thomas chartered a plane and yacht himself.

Last week, Thomas said in his annual financial disclosure that Crow paid for a hotel room in Bali, Indonesia, for a single night in 2019, and food and lodging at a private club in Sonoma County, California, the same year. But he did not report the plane flights or the stay on Crow’s yacht.

In a statement released minutes after the Judiciary panel released its report, Crow’s office said he reached an agreement with the committee to provide information responsive to its requests going back seven years, “despite his serious and continued concerns about the legality and necessity of the inquiry.” The panel voted in November to authorize a subpoena for Crow as part of the probe, despite protests from all committee Republicans.

Crow, a longtime GOP donor based in Dallas, has maintained that he has never spoken with his friend about pending matters before the court.

The Judiciary panel said it will release a full report later this year. But among the details Durbin released Thursday were a 2017 trip Thomas took on Crow’s jet from St. Louis to Montana, along with a return flight from Montana to Dallas; round trip private jet travel in 2019 from Washington to Savannah, Ga., and a round trip flight on a private jet from Washington to San Jose, California, in 2021.

The committee said it also has evidence of private jet travel for the 2019 trip to Indonesia, along with documentation of the eight-day yacht excursion.

The justices adopted an ethics code in November, though Democrats say it is not strong enough because it lacks enforcement. The code treats travel, food and lodging as expenses rather than gifts, for which monetary values must be reported. Justices aren’t required to attach a value to expenses.

Starting last year, the justices also must report private plane travel that is given to them. Thomas has declined to report trips he took before those rules went into effect.

Associated Press writers Mark Sherman and Lindsay Whitehurst contributed to this report.
