Watts Technical Services provides independent technical consultancy focused on the systems traditionally managed by an Electro-Technical Officer (ETO). We support yacht owners, captains, chief engineers, management companies, and project teams with expert advice covering electrical systems, automation, bridge electronics, AV/IT infrastructure, communications, and onboard networks.
Whether troubleshooting operational challenges, planning upgrades, assessing system performance, or managing technology projects, WTS delivers practical, unbiased technical expertise without being tied to equipment manufacturers or service providers.
Modern superyachts rely on increasingly integrated electrical and digital systems. From power management and vessel automation to bridge electronics, Starlink connectivity, AV distribution, and network infrastructure, these systems are critical to safety, reliability, and guest experience.
WTS acts as an independent technical advisor, helping clients understand complex systems, identify risks, evaluate solutions, and make informed technical decisions.
