Step aboard before launch.
Z Marine brings your shipyard's entire range into a 3D showroom. Clients step aboard from anywhere in the world, explore decks and cabins, compare fit-outs and reach the negotiation knowing exactly what they want.
A yacht is understood on board.
Cabin headroom, the view from the saloon, space in the cockpit: the answers an owner looks for are not in a spec sheet. With Z Marine they find them on board.
Every kind of vessel.
From sport cruisers to explorers, every model with its fit-outs, in one catalogue. Clients move from one to the next as if browsing the price list, except they step aboard.
Flybridge
Three decks to walk in sequence and the comparison every owner makes: three cabins or four, seen by switching between versions.
Sport
Low profile and an opening hardtop: the client goes below deck and sees how much room there really is.
Displacement
Generous volumes, beach club and a full-beam owner's cabin: spaces a photograph compresses and that are only appreciated by walking them.
Explorer
Working decks, cranes and lockers: explorer buyers look first at where the equipment sits, and here they can do it in detail.
For those who build, sell and manage yachts.
One catalogue serving the whole industry: the shipyard publishes it, the broker brings it into negotiations, the charter company uses it for bookings, the refit yard as a record of condition.
Shipyards and builders
The entire range digitised once and available everywhere: on the website, across the dealer network, at boat shows and in the showroom, every model with its fit-outs.
Dealers and brokers
Even a boat that is not on the dock can be visited, and for brokerage the condition stays documented at a precise date.
Charter
Guests see the cabins before booking and know where everyone will sleep. Fewer questions, no surprises at boarding.
Refit and service
The condition before and after the work stays comparable, a valuable reference for surveyors, insurers and owners.
Fits into the way you already work.
No systems to replace. Files come from where they are today, the price list stays yours and enquiries arrive in the channels you use every day.

Frequently asked questions.
Which files do we need to add a boat to the catalogue?
A GLB or USDZ file. If the shipyard already has the model, we start from that; otherwise a scan is made with an iPhone or iPad Pro from 2020 onwards. Neither route requires a dedicated app.
Who carries out the scan?
You can do it yourselves, with the phone you already have and a third-party scanning app. If you prefer to send us the raw files, we process them and return a finished model.
Does Z Marine slow down our website?
No. If you publish a link or a QR code, the boat opens on a dedicated page. If you want it inside your own product pages, one line of HTML is enough, and the model downloads only when someone opens it.
What does the client see on a phone?
The boat in 3D, the decks to walk through and the measurements taken on the model. On iPhone and recent Android devices they can also place it at 1:1 scale in the space around them.
Do we need a connection at the dock or at a boat show?
Yes, to open a model the first time. It then stays on the device for the whole session, so even on a weak connection it does not start from scratch every time it is opened.
Where are the models stored?
On servers in Switzerland. Any published link can be withdrawn from the dashboard, and from that moment the address no longer shows the model.
What happens when a boat is sold?
You remove it from the public catalogue and the link stops working. The model stays in your archive, ready to go back online for a sister ship.
