Guide to Purchase and Services

Why work with a Purchase Manager? It's simple.

WE MAKE THINGS SIMPLE FOR YOU

We help you navigate the tricky waters of buying a new ship. You can trust our independence to find you the best deal, our reliability to ensure that the project runs smoothly, and our creativity to find the absolute best option for you. Not to mention our worldwide contacts and our long-term experience in the industry. This service is free of charge.

Identification of requirements

First, we define the requirements of your enquiry, guide you on any technical questions, and survey the Ferry and Cruise market with you. We can provide price guidance and availability of vessels without disclosing your inquiry to the market.

Gathering of offers and initial selection

Once we have a clear idea of your requirements, we select potential ferries or cruise vessels and gather offers from the sellers. At this point, you are still unknown to the buyers. This anonymity protects your reputation in the market and prevents sellers from raising their prices. GRS provides you with access to the entire market. As a result, we create a competitive environment which leads to more favorable pricing.

Vessel inspection and contract negotiation

Finally, we work with you to identify the preferred vessel(s) and complete a vessel inspection. GRS draws up a contract based on the terms and conditions of the best offer. We support you through the contract notifications, with guidance on avoiding potential risks and suggestions of additional beneficial terms.
