Did you know?
The concept of armed personnel onboard ships has been around for hundreds of years. In order to provide additional protection, all British warships carried a Marine detachment as an integral part of their complement. From 1802 the force was known as the Royal Marines, soon afterwards adding artillery to their infantry skills

Physical security services
Whilst intelligent security planning can mitigate the possibility of an incident, professional physical protection services will provide complete security against an attack. With MAST you receive exceptional physical protection services and complete peace of mind.
24-hour security management
From queries to emergencies (including responding to the Ship Security Alert System), you can access our Operations Centre from around the world, around the clock.
VIP and close protection
Our security consultants will ensure that you enjoy your cruise or visit ashore in complete confidence. Our bodyguards are from a UK Special Forces Protection background and are experienced in escorting high profile individuals from business, diplomatic and entertainment sectors. We offer complete discretion and absolute confidentiality.
Anti piracy escort service
We will embark a discrete, professional and dedicated team with seagoing experience. Depending on the threat, peculiarities of jurisdiction and flag state, we can provide armed protection during passage through areas of high risk. In these areas, the number of personnel on watch is increased and a citadel plan implemented onboard.
Patrol vessel escort service
Many owners seek complete security for their yacht through the use of a patrol vessel. MAST is able to charter appropriate vessels, rendezvous at sea and escort a yacht through high risk areas. This service delivers full protection without the need for firearms to be embarked on the yacht.
Firearms facility
Firearms are used by highly trained personnel only in extreme situations in consultation with the Master and a clear set of Rules of Engagement.
Intelligence
Intelligence and planning underpins our physical service. Every detail of a journey is planned, in many cases months in advance. We research and analyse the latest data on security incidents. Assessments are made for high risk transits and visits to locations within hostile areas.
Technology
From deck sensors and CCTV to automatic door locks and alarms, we will work with you to determine the most appropriate security equipment for your vessel.
Advance port security liaison visits
We send our personnel ahead of the vessel to research and assess the current security arrangements in the port of intended visit. We ensure that clients do not experience security-related delays. Firearms onboard are fully cleared through customs immediately. We provide a reconnaissance service, examining future ports of call and land destinations.
