Members of AVDA (American Vessel Documentation Association) and NMBA (National Marine Bankers Association)
AVDA was incorporated on February 10, 1995 as a California Nonprofit Mutual Benefit Corporation in response to the centralization of the United States Coast Guard offices to West Virginia and the need for formalization of the professional status of more than 50 documentation services in the United States.
NMBA's mission is to educate current and prospective lenders in the marine financing procedures, promote credit to consumer and trade borrowers, maintain alliances with industry partners, measure and report on the vitality of the marine lending market, and maintain networking and communication among members and associate members (which includes documentation services, remarketers, insurance agencies, and marine attorneys).
Annapolis Yacht Documentation adheres to a strict confidentiality code for our clients and their information
Our computer database has been carefully designed to guarantee the confidentiality of your private information and includes password and firewall protection. We take serious steps to ensure the privacy of our clients' sensitive information. For example, each social security number (needed for the Coast Guard Application) entered into our database is automatically expunged from the database immediately upon sending your file to the Coast Guard. Furthermore, our IT staff has set up forms to keep each file independent and safeguarded from others in the system. At AYD, we are fully invested in adhering to the strict guidelines established to safeguard all information at all times.
