About us
A Family Story
In 2003, Carolina Villa founded SCS Ship and Crew Services, inspired by her deep passion for the maritime world and entrepreneurial spirit.
SCS is a family-run business that quickly evolved into a full-service shipping agency, thanks to the extensive experience and in-depth knowledge brought by Sergio Villa, former Admiral of the Genoa Coast Guard.
Subsequently, in 2018 Ship & Crew Services launched SCS Yachting.
Thanks to the extensive experience and deep expertise of the management team, supported by experienced professionals, the company offers high-quality services 24/7 to assist owners and captains in the delicate phases of yacht management.
SCS Yachting aims to operate with unparalleled standards in the yachting industry, guiding clients with a customer-centric approach that places their needs and expectations at the heart of everything we do. We focus on delivering exceptional, tailored services that ensure the success and satisfaction of each owner and crew.
By consistently exceeding expectations, we create long-term partnerships based on trust and transparency. Our commitment is to ensure that every yacht in our fleet remains operational, well-supported, compliant with regulations and always ready for the next adventure.
