01 / EQUIPMENT
Choose for the vessel
Start with the load profile and duty. Review fit, service access, ventilation, exhaust, noise and vibration criteria against the vessel brief.

Generator equipment, installation coordination and onboard integration—brought into one clear conversation for superyacht new-build and refit projects.

The problem is rarely just the machine
A generator sits inside a bigger system.
When equipment, installation and integration are treated as separate hand-offs, even a well-specified project can become harder to coordinate.
Where the gaps begin
Who owns the space between suppliers?
A marine generator has to work within a vessel, a schedule and a wider technical environment. Responsibilities can blur when the equipment supplier, installation team and yard are all working to separate briefs.
- 01Different scopesEquipment and installation questions can land with different parties.
- 02Yard coordinationThe project team may be left connecting details across multiple conversations.
- 03Unclear next stepsWhen something changes, the route to a decision should be clear.
The brief, the equipment and the installation belong in the same conversation.
A joined-up way to work
One brief. Fewer blind spots.
Ukana brings the generator conversation closer to the people, constraints and decisions around the vessel.
02 / INSTALLATION
Plan the fit
Review access, cooling, exhaust and electrical/control interfaces with the yard and specialists. Agree who owns installation, testing and commissioning.
03 / INTEGRATION
Make ownership visible
Keep the generator conversation with one partner while roles and warranty terms are confirmed against the vessel and agreed project scope.
A clearer project boundary
The difference is the hand-off.
A practical comparison of how the work is organised—not a claim that one generator is right for every yacht.
Sourced separately
- Equipment and installation can sit in separate scopes.
- The yard may need to join up technical questions across parties.
- Responsibility depends on how the project is contracted.
Coordinated with Ukana
- Equipment and installation planning discussed together.
- A direct project conversation with the yard and relevant partners.
- Scope, responsibilities and warranty terms clarified project by project.
Equipment selection, installation scope, warranty terms and final responsibilities are subject to the vessel, project specification and agreed contract.
The right conversation for your role
Start with your project.
Whether you are planning for an owner or managing a yard schedule, a useful first step is a technical conversation around the vessel and its constraints.
01 / OWNER & REPRESENTATIVE
Clarity for the people responsible for the yacht.
Discuss onboard power needs, refit priorities and the practical questions behind a generator decision.
For yacht owners & representatives
02 / TRADE & REFIT
A partner who understands the yard’s side.
Keep equipment, installation planning and project dialogue connected from the technical brief onwards.
For shipyards & refit teams
Before the first call
Good questions, early.
A first conversation helps establish whether the project and the scope are a fit.
What does Ukana coordinate?
Ukana’s offer brings marine-generator equipment together with installation planning and onboard integration. The scope is discussed against each vessel and project.
Can Ukana be involved in a refit?
Refit projects are part of the intended conversation. Share the vessel context, timeline and known constraints so the project can be discussed with the right people.
Does Ukana work directly with shipyards?
The project model is designed around dialogue with shipyards and refit teams. Specific responsibilities, interfaces and deliverables should be agreed before work begins.
How are generator selection and warranty terms decided?
Equipment suitability, installation scope and warranty terms depend on the project specification and agreed contract. They should be confirmed for the individual vessel rather than assumed in advance.
