Spain, a truly versatile destination, beckons yachts not only during the vibrant summer months but also throughout the enchanting winter season. As the temperatures drop, the country remains a haven for superyachts, earning high acclaim for its bustling refit season. Numerous marinas and shipyards become home to yacht berths, setting the stage for the next upcoming (yachting) season.Â
Embracing this maritime spirit, our winter season services at Evolution Yacht Agents encompass everything from TPA’s with VAT-exempt refit, B1B2 visas for the upcoming Caribbean season, various crew entertainment services, and an extensive range of contacts for contractors and spares. With a solid commitment to excellence, we take pride in keeping busy during the Spanish winter months, ensuring a hassle-free season for yacht crew and captains.Â
Reliable and efficient shipyards such as MB92 (Barcelona), STP & Astilleros de Mallorca (Mallorca), Port Tarraco Works (Tarragona), Pendennis (Vilanova), Varadero Valencia (Valencia) and Navantia (Cartagena) are great options for your winter refit in Spain. The refit period is an important yearly procedure for every vessel, especially superyachts, therefore, it is essential to make sure the timing is not overrun and that there are no unexpected costs ahead. Choosing the right shipyard and yacht agency is a necessity that can certainly not be overlooked.
Evolution has various in-house specialists that take care of your superyacht’s TPA with VAT-exempt refit, including a customs broker, allowing us to provide yacht services with no intermediaries. With over 460 successfully processed TPA’s throughout the last years (Inward Processing), we assist the yacht during the clearance, customs, and refit procedures in terms of management and accountability.Â
If you have yet to administer your B1B2 visa, we recommend you process it soon, for the upcoming Caribbean season. We are here to assist you to schedule your B1B2 appointment, processing your application, or providing guidance from start to finish. The process is performed in any of the U.S. embassies worldwide, which allows its holders to enter U.S. waters for periods of up to 6 months at a time, valid for up to 10 years. Despite the B1B2, get set for the Caribbean season with a stock of fresh and high-quality provisions, unique interior items, and affordable bunkering options to enjoy a seamless journey with Evolution.
