New Company Shipyard Supply Co. Launched

Increased demand for quality superyacht deck equipment has led the founders of Superyacht Tenders and Toys (SYTT), Josh and Claire Richardson, to launch specialist deck hardware company Shipyard Supply Co (SSCo).

The new business will be headed up by Luke Porter, formerly of Oyster Yachts, and will allow each company to focus on its respective market sectors.

Since its launch in 2011, Queen’s Award winning SYTT has seen year-on-year growth in all aspects of its business, particularly in its deck equipment division.

Day-to-day operations at SSCo will be overseen by Luke Porter (a former project manager at Oyster Yachts with superyacht industry experience), whilst Josh and Claire Richardson will focus on the continued success of SYTT.

Peter Emmons, Technical Sales at SYTT, will join Luke at SSCo as Technical Manager, handling all deck equipment enquiries. However, Peter will continue to work closely with current SYTT clients, assuming a dual role in order to bridge the gap between the two companies in the early days.

SYTT will continue to provide deck equipment from across the range of suppliers with its ethos being to provide choice, not compromise and find the perfect solution for each individual client.
