Our yachts are designed to be practical, safe and reliable. From the moment you turn the batteries on, we've considered and engineered clear, reliable and robust solutions to help you get the most from your time on board. We know you don't need to be hunting blown fuses or remembering the way to cut power to a winch in an emergency. We also know there may be times when you are tired and exhausted. We clearly label services on board so you can find what you want quickly and easily. Here's Ruth to explain more.

While crossing the Mona Passage, 35 nautical miles offshore, we ran into trouble with our Yanmar 4JH4E. We were motoring in light winds when we noticed a change in the exhaust pitch — turns out, seawater wasn’t flowing properly. We checked the impeller and, strangely, it looked intact… but it could spin freely by hand — not a good sign. After getting towed back to our anchorage at midnight (huge thanks to Michael, who came out and saved us!), we dug deeper and discovered that the gear inside the old water pump had worn down badly. It turns out the pump wasn’t making full contact with the internal gear, likely due to an aftermarket impeller and shallow gear engagement. We ordered a new OEM water pump from R&B Power in San Juan, and they were awesome — super responsive and got us the part
A big part of our finder Brian Muston’s focus is his life’s work — MGI. A company that’s been handling superyacht refits and yacht management in Fort Lauderdale for over 20 years. We see MGI as the older sister of BMA — and we’re proud of it. But it’s more than just pride. Our clients know: when they buy, they get boutique-level service for the entire ownership period. And when it’s time to sell, the yacht won’t just hold its value — it might even grow. #mgiyachts #bmayachts #staysalty #yachtmanagement #ownerrepresentation
