Gillen Yacht Services understands that talent and experience is what our large yacht customers need. So, that’s why we have directed the technical team to our new Lauderdale Marine Safeharbor location.
Leading the team is Service Manager Victor Iglesias, a Mechanical Engineer who brings over 20 years of experience in the large yacht market. Victor’s career has included managing large teams of technicians and projects at both Ferretti Group and RMK Merrill Stevens. He has a vast knowledge of all technical aspects of a yacht but is viewed as an expert specialist in running gear, drive line, and vibration. Victors’ leadership will continue to provide the high level of service our large vessel customer’s demand.
Taking charge of the mechanical team is Carlos Viches who is widely known by our customers as an expert in both Diesel engines and Engine Room ventilation systems. Carlos has celebrated his 10th year with GYS and has been an integral part of the company’s growth into the large yacht market.
Cristina Santos keeps parts flowing and oversees administration. With over 13 years in the marine industry, Cristina learned about marine parts while working at Marine Diesel Services. Her knowledge of customer timelines and the importance of providing support to technicians rounds out this dynamic team.
