The Isle of Man Ship Registry has launched its new-look website.
The content and visual style of the website have been completely re-vamped, making it a more useful user-friendly resource than ever for new and existing clients looking to register their vessel in the Isle of Man.
The website has been constructed to maximise the Ship Registry’s marketing efforts and includes links to trade journals which have recently featured the Ship Registry, as well as informative video links to interviews from around the world.
The new website will also enable clients to obtain important information easily and intuitively, for instance, the latest Manx Shipping Notices can be easily accessed from the front page.
Also new are a number of direct email addresses which will provide direct access to those dealing with endorsements, seamen’s cards and discharge books, thus speeding up the process.
Minister for Trade and Industry David Cretney MHK said, "The Ship Registry’s new website is a great step forward. It is important for departments with a global reach to communicate with the world and the new site will show the Isle of Man in a great light.
"The Ship Registry worked with a local designer to create a new look and feel for their website which is a credit to all involved. I recommend a visit to
iomshipregistry.com."
Dick Welsh, Director of the Ship Registry, said, "An overhaul of the website has been long overdue. We are very proud of the new website and know it will present the Isle of Man as a modern, efficient place to do business.
"It provides existing clients with quick and easy access to the information or services they require, and potential clients with simple and instinctive access to the Ship Registry and the Isle of Man for maritime business.
"We will continually improve this site and would like to ask any of our clients to provide us with high resolution photographs which we can use in the future."
