Digitized management of large yachts by YYachts, Y on Watch includes maintenance and logbooks, as well as remote control and monitoring of all systems
Michael Schmidt has been a visionary in the maritime industry for decades, starting with his successes at the Admiral’s Cup of the 1980s, the brokerage network that still bears his name, as the founder of the Hanse shipyard, and now with his current business, YYachts under which brand Y on Watch is now launched.
YYachts builds a range of performance cruisers from 70 to 90 feet for avid sailors who want to combine efficiency and comfort with a level of simplicity not normally found at this level.
These yachts are now offered with a complete remote control, monitoring and maintenance management system, operated via a smartphone or a connected watch. The Y on Watch can also monitor and control all onboard systems via interfaces to the yacht’s CZone and NMEA2000 data networks. In addition, the system is connected to the company’s AI for data analysis.

Even the simplest yachts today are complex machines with diverse service and maintenance requirements, many of which are too easy to ignore. This system integrates with each vessel’s service and maintenance programs and serves as a vital link between the owner, the shipyard and specialist technicians, ensuring that procedures are planned and completed on time.
Once the maintenance work is completed, the system is updated with a detailed list of the tasks performed – so it also serves as the yacht’s maintenance record.
A digital logbook, activated automatically when the vessel leaves port, records data such as position, speed, distance traveled, etc.
The system also has features already available elsewhere but not yet commonly installed on new yachts. Owners can, for example, turn on the refrigeration and air conditioning remotely before arriving on board. At the same time, if the sensors detect a change outside the predetermined parameters, the system will trigger an alarm. It can be as simple as disconnecting shore power, or as important as moving the boat out of a geo-fenced area or activating the bilge water alarm. These are all documented in real time, with push notifications, statistics and other data to keep owners up to date.
