Why the service exists
Technology support should feel personal, not improvised.
TheYachtAVIT sits between manufacturers, local technicians and the onboard team: one independent technical partner who sees the wider picture and remains connected after the immediate job is finished.
Jake Wyborn’s onboard AVIT and ETO background makes the service familiar to crew, useful to captains and credible with owners’ teams — without making the business about a personal résumé.

Working principles
How the service earns trust.
Sound judgement, calm communication and a vessel left better informed than it was before.
Alongside crew
Support strengthens the onboard team rather than working around it.
Documented
Useful decisions and technical context remain with the yacht.
Honest about fit
When another specialist is the better answer, that is said early.
Captain’s reference
“His technical contributions during an extensive refit period at Feadship were paramount to the success of the project.”
Paul HarmanCaptain
Direct by design
One relationship. One accountable point of contact.
When you call, email or message, you reach Jake — the same person who will hold the vessel context and support the work.
