Dunbar Yachts
Ownership Services
Your boat should be prepared for the way you plan to use it. Dunbar Yachts provides in-house commissioning, customization, delivery, orientation, and ongoing support to make the transition from purchasing your boat to enjoying it on the water as seamless as possible.
Commissioning
Prepared by Experts. Ready for the Water.
Every new boat requires careful preparation before delivery. Dunbar Yachts provides professional in-house commissioning, allowing our experienced team to oversee the process from factory arrival through final testing and detailing.
Our commissioning capabilities include electronics installation, engine and systems preparation, rigging, bottom preparation, equipment installation, vessel testing, and final detailing. Before handover, we work to ensure your boat is properly prepared and ready for its next adventure.
Customization
Make Your Boat Your Own
No two owners use their boats exactly the same way. Whether you’re preparing for offshore fishing, extended cruising, weekend trips, or comfortable days on the water, Dunbar Yachts can help configure your boat around your needs.
Our customization capabilities can include Garmin electronics, radar, autopilot, VHF, Starlink, lithium battery systems, air conditioning, generators, inverters, solar power, audio systems, canvas, fishing equipment, cruising equipment, and more.
From individual upgrades to a complete electronics and systems package, our team can help create a boat that’s equipped for how you intend to use it.

Delivery & Orientation
From Factory Arrival to Your First Day on the Water
We manage the details between your boat arriving from the factory and you taking the helm. Our team coordinates commissioning, installations, inspections, testing, detailing, and final preparation before delivery.
At handover, we’ll introduce you to your new boat and walk through its key systems, controls, electronics, equipment, and features. The goal is simple: make sure you’re comfortable with your boat before you leave the dock.
Aftercare
The Relationship Doesn’t End When the Boat Is Delivered.
Taking delivery should be the beginning of your relationship with Dunbar Yachts—not the end.
Our team remains available after the sale to help with questions, service needs, maintenance, equipment, upgrades, and the many things that come with boat ownership. Having a knowledgeable team that already understands your boat means you’ll know who to call when you need assistance.
It’s one of the biggest advantages of purchasing your boat from Dunbar Yachts: we’re here for the ownership experience, not just the transaction.
Cruising Preparation
Where Do You Want Your Boat to Take You?
Preparing for an extended adventure requires more than choosing a destination. Your boat’s electronics, power systems, communications, safety equipment, storage, comfort systems, and cruising equipment all need to work together.
Tell us where you’re planning to go, and our team can help configure your boat around the journey.
Bahamas Preparation
Get your boat ready for island cruising with the equipment and systems needed for greater independence away from the dock. We can help evaluate navigation, communications, power management, refrigeration, comfort, safety, and other cruising requirements before you depart.
Great Loop Preparation
Planning the Great Loop? We’ll help you think through the equipment and onboard systems that can make extended cruising more comfortable and practical—from navigation and communications to power, storage, anchoring, and everyday onboard living.
Coastal Cruising Preparation
For weekends away or longer trips along the coast, we can help create a setup focused on dependable navigation, communications, comfort, power management, and the equipment you’ll rely on while traveling between destinations.
Offshore Preparation
Heading farther offshore requires thoughtful preparation. Our team can help configure navigation, radar, communications, electrical systems, safety equipment, and other essential systems for more demanding trips away from shore.
