Silverwake Solutions — Remote Admin Support for Yachts

"I know what it feels like when the admin backlog is three months deep and the owner's arrival is in 48 hours."

— Carla Annas, Founder

About

12 years on the water, now working from the shore.

Carla Annas, founder, spent 12 years in the superyacht industry, working on yachts from 25m to 85m, the last 8 as Chief Stewardess. For the last 3 years as Chief Stewardess, she worked 6 months on board and 6 months remotely for the yacht. She knows what it takes to run a busy boat remotely and exactly which tasks pile up on your desk and never get done.

Silverwake Solutions was built to take that pressure off. She works remotely, on a contract basis, handling the essential admin that keeps your vessel compliant, your crew organised, and your documentation up to date.

She is based in South Africa and works across time zones. She understands the industry, the pace, and the standards expected on board.

What Carla Does

Admin that matters, done properly.

She focuses on the essential but non-urgent work that falls through the cracks on a busy boat, and personal admin that senior crew simply don't have time for.

Vessel Administration

Invoice and expense tracking, supplier correspondence, travel and logistics coordination, and vessel database maintenance. The work that keeps the boat running smoothly behind the scenes.

Invoicing Logistics Supplier Comms Records Scheduling Compliance

Crew Documentation

Keeping crew files, certifications, and vessel records organised and current. Booking flights and crew logistics. The backlog tasks that never make it to the top of the priority list, until they urgently do.

Crew Files Compliance Databases Filing

Personal Admin

For Captains and Heads of Department who need personal task management, calendar coordination, and administrative support handled discreetly and professionally.
