"We are thrilled to partner with Superyacht Services Guide to promote our marina destinations to a targeted and unique audience within the superyacht industry. Through this collaboration, we’ve seen a marked increase in engagement from Captains berthing at our marinas in Malta, Grenada, and Turkey. This boost is largely attributed to the enhanced knowledge and education of the local cruising areas, alongside the top-tier marina facilities and services we provide. We also hugely appreciate the friendly and supportive team at Superyacht Services Guide, who continually serve as an invaluable resource for our third-party business. Their extensive industry expertise and global network have been instrumental in providing valuable advice, connections, and contacts, helping us grow and succeed on a worldwide scale."

"I have always thought that SSG is the absolute bees knees, it’s the first place I always look for information and we fight over physical copies as all departments want one. Such a clever and simple idea its pure genius and a fantastic source of knowledge. We love it!"
Dr Spike Briggs - Managing Director, MSOS

"MSOS has been supported by the Superyacht Services Guide for quite a few years now. The SSG team have been very responsive to our requirements, and have excellent connections with the superyacht industry. We're very appreciative of their assistance, and fully intend to continue the association for many years to come."
Chief Stew Gaelle Andries - MY Arion
2019
“When I first became Chief Stew, it was rather unexpected and unsure where to look for supplies my captain (Laurance Ottley, SY Ree) recommended to check the Superyacht Services Guide. It’s been my go-to ever since. I use it to find laundry companies, wine suppliers, everything really. I love how it’s based on real recommendations of other yacht crew who have provisioned around the world."
Zara Tremlett - General Manager, Port Louis Marina Grenada
2025
"Camper & Nicholsons Port Louis Marina has consistently seen great value in advertising with the Superyacht Services Guide over the years. The platform’s comprehensive 360-degree approach to marketing—across both online and print channels—effectively targets the yachting and superyacht audience. Thanks to this partnership, we’ve experienced a steady stream of enquiries, valuable insights, and increased engagement from those looking to sail in and around Grenada. We’re proud to continue this collaboration and hugely appreciate the results it brings. Thank you!"
Captain Tim Forderer - SY Palliador
2021
"The Superyacht Services Guides have been an invaluable source of local knowledge for three laps around the world and will be with me as I start my fourth adventure! Your guides have helped me navigate land based services in destinations covering the Arctic to Antarctica and nearly everything in between. I fondly remember meeting you and Andrew in St. Maarten when you were putting the 2003 edition together, I may even have provided a quote or few recommendations for that edition. Congratulations on 20+ years of the iconic Superyacht Service Guide. Caroline, thank you very much for the tireless service and leadership you continue to give the yachting community."
Douglas Rapier - Founder, Douglas Yacht Services
2025
"My first memories of SSG were of Andrew while walking the docks in St Martin explaining to me the reasons for his creating the superyacht guide and the need for the yachts nonetheless to have professional concierge services on each island. He then introduced me to several captains who subsequently came to discover Martinique.
The fun and our mutual investment started and has continued ever since ! Caroline has been outstanding in seeking new ways to promote Douglas Yacht Services as SSG unfolded their strategy via the Internet and we pursued our path of achieving excellence in technical support and expanded into Yacht Transport with Sevenstar/DYT."
Mate Marlies Sanders – SY A Sulana
2021
"I like the digital versions of the Guide, but as we don’t always have internet, it’s nice to have a printed copy as well – I often come across things that I wasn’t even looking for, or knew I needed."

"Tristan and Caroline are amazing partners to work with and their platform was very beneficial to our clients."
David Good - CEO, AIMEX & Superyacht Australia
2020
"Working with Caroline has opened our industry to the world in a way that we couldn’t have achieved ourselves. The guides she produces with her team are outstanding. The 60% increase in visitation of yachts to Australia that has been experienced since the Australian specific guide was produced is no coincidence. One of the most passionate leaders in the yachting industry."
Roger Horner - Group MD, e3 Systems

"Caroline Blatter is, very simply, an absolute star! She has almost too many attributes to mention but her accomplishments with Andrew and what they have created are really what sets her apart. I first met them in 1992 when they were running S/Y Windfall. After much sailing, some of it together, they started their own family and sailed off to Antigua on their own yacht, to settle in Antigua and to start the first Superyacht Services Guide by doing their own research, sailing up and down the islands, developing many contacts and friends on the way.
This was just the start of what is now a legendary generation of Guides covering most of the yachting world. The idea to only publish recommended services was inspired. I wholeheartedly recommend these Guides knowing them to be filled with quality content for any yacht and can confirm they have always generated business for my company.
My family and I have been on the side-lines of Caroline and Andrew’s life and seen the energy, love and devotion they have put into their family, the inspiration Caroline has given to their business team and how she has developed the Guides which have provided an unknown amount of help to yachts and therefore yacht owners around the world. As a result I cannot hesitate to recommend Caroline and if you haven’t got the Guides on your yacht get them now!!!"
Roger Lean-Vercoe - Judge & Chairman, World Superyacht Awards
2020
"I've known Caroline and Andrew Blatter for well over 20 years now, and everything that I have seen them do has been done with integrity and success. They were a great team aboard the sailing superyacht Zanna, before setting up the Superyacht Services Guides, which I and a multitude of Superyacht Industry professionals find to be highly accurate reference points.
Andrew and Caroline's knowledge of the practical aspects of the superyacht industry has been the vital spark in the development of these legendary guides - invaluable to visiting superyachts and to the businesses that they feature. I have no hesitation in adding my name to the many others that highly recommend their use."
Karine Rayson - Director, The Crew Coach
2025
"The Superyacht Service Guide is an invaluable resource for anyone in the yachting industry. What sets Caroline and her team apart is their thoroughness and attention to detail when it comes to selecting the service providers featured in their guide and platform. Every recommendation is carefully vetted, ensuring that only the most reliable, high-quality businesses make the cut.
Beyond their professionalism, what really stands out is their personal touch. They genuinely care about the relationships they build, both with crew and industry professionals, and it shows. Their ability to forge strong, positive connections makes a real difference.
The guide isn’t just a directory; it’s a reflection of their deep industry expertise and commitment to excellence. If you’re in yachting and want trusted recommendations, this is the resource you need. Highly recommend!"
