Share the context
Explain the vessel, new-build or refit status, and the reason for the discussion.
For yacht owners & representatives
Confidence in your yacht’s onboard power.
Generator decisions touch the vessel, the people who use it and the work behind every installation. Bring the questions together before the project moves ahead.
01 Vessel needs
02 Project context
03 Clear scope
Start with the yacht, not a catalogue
The right generator conversation is about more than output.
Load profile matters, but so does the environment around the equipment. Space, access, refit timing, existing systems and the yard’s plan all shape the questions worth asking.
A connected project conversation
From first brief to handover.
Ukana brings equipment, installation planning and integration into one project discussion. The scope and responsibilities are confirmed against the vessel and contract.
Review the constraints
Consider known loads, access, space, schedule and relevant onboard interfaces.
Align the parties
Discuss how equipment and installation conversations fit with the yard and project team.
Clarify the scope
Confirm proposals, responsibilities and commercial or warranty terms in writing.
Consider the whole picture01 / 03
Vessel and equipment decisions should be discussed with the project’s technical team.
A considered decision
Ask the questions that keep options open.
Before choosing equipment, make sure the project has a shared understanding of the decision points. These are good topics to raise early:
- 01What is the vessel’s operating profile?Typical use and power needs can inform the discussion.
- 02What does the installation involve?Access, mounting, exhaust routing, ventilation and interfaces should be reviewed by the project team.
- 03What is included—and what is not?Confirm equipment, installation responsibilities, commissioning scope and warranty terms in the agreed proposal.
Questions owners often ask
Clear terms, before commitment.
Can I discuss a generator refit before the equipment is chosen?
Yes. An early conversation can help establish the project context, known constraints and questions to resolve with the yard or technical advisers.
Will Ukana advise which generator is right for my yacht?
Ukana’s equipment discussion should be based on the vessel and project requirements. Final suitability depends on the specification and technical review for that yacht.
Who is responsible for installation and warranty?
Responsibilities and warranty coverage depend on the project scope and agreed contract. Ask for each party’s responsibilities and applicable terms to be set out clearly in writing.
