As the countdown to METSTRADE 2026 continues, we’re introducing each of the partners joining us on the IDEA Universe stand in the Superyacht Zone. Next up is EMS Yachting, the Hamburg-based technical supply partner whose spare parts can be requested and ordered without ever leaving IDEA YACHT.
The IDEA Universe is built on a simple belief: no single solution works in isolation. Modern yacht operations depend on a connected ecosystem of software, hardware, supply and services, and our stand at RAI Amsterdam brings that ecosystem together under one roof to mark 25 years of IDEA. Alongside Spectro | Jet-Care, Dock 07, YOT and Panoblu, EMS Yachting brings the supply side of the engine room into the picture.
Who are EMS Yachting?
EMS Yachting is a Germany-based technical supply partner for superyachts, specialising in sourcing technical spare parts across all major brands and systems. From hard-to-find components to complete technical requirements, the team combines fast sourcing with reliable worldwide logistics from a single point of contact.
Based in Hamburg, close to some of Northern Europe’s best-known superyacht yards, EMS Yachting focuses on genuine German and European engineering parts from manufacturers such as MTU, Volvo Penta, Viega, Awlgrip and 3M. Parts can be ordered through a dedicated account manager or browsed in the EMS Yachting online shop.
Only the real thing
Original spare parts and components across all major brands and onboard systems, including the hard-to-find ones.
Wherever the yacht is
Fast sourcing and reliable worldwide shipping, with carbon-neutral delivery options available.
A single point of contact
From a single part to a complete technical requirement, one team handles sourcing, order tracking and delivery.
Spare parts, ordered from inside IDEA YACHT
EMS Yachting and IDEA announced their partnership at METSTRADE 2025, with EMS Yachting integrated directly into the Direct Order module in IDEA YACHT. Instead of copying part numbers into emails and spreadsheets, engineers handle the whole procurement cycle in the same system as their maintenance and inventory.
Ask for a quote
Open Direct Order, choose EMS Yachting as the supplier and send the request straight from IDEA YACHT.
Accept the offer
The quote comes back into IDEA. Once the offer is accepted, the purchase order updates automatically.
Follow the delivery
Shipping codes are recorded against the order, so everyone can see where the parts are.
The result is one record of every request, quote, order and delivery, kept alongside the equipment it was ordered for, and far less time spent chasing parts by email.
“EMS Yachting specializes in technical spare parts and consumables supply for the superyacht industry, with a strong focus on fast and reliable procurement support. Together with IDEA Data Solutions and the Direct Order integration, we’re helping simplify and accelerate the purchasing process for yachts and management companies worldwide. We’re excited to present this collaboration together at METS during IDEA’s 25th anniversary year.”
One year on, back at METSTRADE
A year after the partnership was announced in Amsterdam, EMS Yachting returns to METSTRADE as part of the IDEA Universe. It’s a chance to see Direct Order working end to end, talk to the team about sourcing for your yacht, and join us for our Gin & Tonic reception on the stand at 4pm on Wednesday 18 November as we celebrate 25 years of IDEA.
Why EMS Yachting belongs in the IDEA Universe
At IDEA, we help crews, managers and owners bring clarity to every part of yacht operations, from maintenance and safety to inventory, compliance and finance. EMS Yachting brings that same clarity to the moment a part is needed. When the maintenance plan, the stock levels and the purchase order all sit in one place, engineers spend less time on admin, managers can see what has been ordered and why, and the right part arrives where the yacht is. Together on the stand, visitors can see how that connection works in practice and meet the people behind it.
