Was kostet eine Yacht?

Powered by smava, deutschlands günstiger yacht-kredit.

Je größer die Yacht, desto höher der Preis – und desto größer die Unterhaltskosten. Doch was kostet denn nun eine Yacht? Wie viel Geld muss man aufbringen, will man sich den Traum vom Hobby auf dem Wasser erfüllen? Genauer gesagt: Wie hoch sind die Yacht-Kosten in der Anschaffung und wie hoch ist der Yacht-Unterhalt?

Die Anschaffungskosten einer Yacht

Dass es beim Kaufpreis kaum Grenzen nach oben gibt, beweist ein Blick in die BoatNet-Datenbank oder die Pressemitteilungen über die Reichen und Superreichen, die ihre Schiffe von Star-Designern entwerfen und in spezialisierten Werften bauen lassen. Für alle anderen wird es deutlich günstiger, besonders auf dem Gebrauchtmarkt. Die Anschaffungskosten für zum Beispiel eine gebrauchte 10-Meter-Yacht können bereits im vier- und fünfstelligen Bereich liegen. Ein ordentliches Gebrauchtboot ist zum Teil schon für 20.000,- bis 30.000,- Euro zu haben. Ein Neumodell mit sieben bis acht Meter Länge, wie es der Durchschnitt in Deutschland ist, liegt bei rund 60.000,- Euro. Der Preis für ein Boot steigt mit jedem Meter. Neben Größe und Ausstattung geht es bei dem Marktwert im Grunde um drei Faktoren: - Alter des Boots - Zustand/ Pflege (werterhaltend vs. werterhöhend) - Betriebsstunden Gerade bei Motoryachten sind die Betriebsstunden nicht unwichtig, denn sie geben einen wichtigen Hinweis auf den Zustand des Antriebaggregats. Wenn man bedenkt, dass man beim Kauf einer Yacht preislich schnell im Bereich einer respektablen Immobilie ist, sollte man an der fachkundigen Beratung nicht sparen: Ein Wertzertifikat beispielsweise von RateMyBoat ist für den ersten Preis-Check ausreichend. Geht es dann in die konkreten Verhandlungen ist ein Sachverständiger empfehlenswert, wenn man nicht gerade selbst ein Fachmann ist. Auch bei der Bootsfinanzierung sollte man nicht voreilig handeln und genau rechnen, wie sich die Yacht am günstigsten finanziert.

Der Yacht-Unterhalt

Wenn es um die laufenden Yacht-Kosten geht, macht es keinen Sinn, mit absoluten Zahlen zu rechnen. Schließlich macht es einen Unterschied, ob man eine 10-Meter-Yacht oder eine 30-Meter-Yacht unterhält. Als ganz grober Richtwert haben sich 10 Prozent des Anschaffungswerts als Orientierung für die laufenden Kosten als realistisch erwiesen – und zwar pro Jahr. Wer also beispielsweise 250.000,- Euro bei der Anschaffung investiert, darf bei diesem Rechenbeispiel mit rund 25.000 Euro Betriebskosten für 12 Monate rechnen. Diese 10 Prozent verteilen sich wie folgt: Versicherung – grob 1-2 Prozent des Yachtwerts, abhängig von Versicherungsumfang. Wichtig ist Haftpflicht und Kasko. Auch wenn es in Deutschland keine gesetzliche Pflicht gibt, eine Yacht-Haftpflicht-versicherung abzuschliessen. Liegeplatzgebühren – durchschnittlich 2 Prozent Reinigung, Wartung, Malerarbeiten (inkl. Kosten für Farbe) ca. 1 Prozent Verbrauchsmaterialien: Reparatur Segel, Austausch Batterien – 2-3 Prozent Kraftstoff, Öl, Betriebsstoffe (Wasser, Strom, W-LAN in den Marinas), Rettungsmittel (Wartung bzw. Austausch von Rettungswesten, Rettungsinseln und Leuchtraketen) – 1 Prozent Unvorhergesehenes wie z. B. außerplanmäßige Reparaturen 1 Prozent Die Abschreibung ist noch nicht mit eingerechnet, ebenso wenig wie eventuelle Kurtaxe, Visum, Überzeit etc. im laufenden Betrieb. Wer selbst Hand anlegt, kommt natürlich gerade bei den Reparaturarbeiten günstiger weg. Zu beachten ist allerdings, dass nicht wenige Liegeplätze eigene Arbeiten nicht erlauben.

Crew is one of the largest expenses on a superyacht and critical to the owner’s enjoyment of their vessel. As the largest crew agency in the world, we know crew. Our cost calculator contains customized crew lists for yachts ranging from 80ft to 600ft with salary information based on our reference verified salary data.

Our users also have the ability to completely tailor the crew list to the specific needs, schedule and requirements of their vessel. Each yacht is unique and may have specific owner requests in addition to the yacht’s safe manning requirements.

Management of the supplemental crew costs and strategic budgeting can help avoid significant overspend on categories such as food and uniform. This tool contains default values based on our industry expertise and recommended budget for an efficiently and safely run superyacht.

To learn more about each crew position in detail, including salary ranges, please visit our yacht department directory .

Drag the sliders to modify your results. These are not linear scales and we expect most yachts to operate within the 20-80% window. Above 80% and below 20% costs increase or decrease at exaggerated levels and we only see numbers in these levels in very rare circumstances.

This sunburst diagram is interactive. You can click into each block to see the expense break down and mouse over each block for more details.

Our chart of accounts displays seven major categories, 20 sub-categories plus a further 80 detail categories for a total of 107.

Our yacht operating cost calculator is now on it’s third major revision. We start with actual yacht expense data from our yacht management accountants and then generate formulas to extrapolate out the budget for a wide range of yachts. We have been providing accounting services to large yachts for the past 18 years.

Our operating cost calculator is tuned for yachts from 80 to 600 feet. We find operating variables create the largest variances for yachts smaller than 100 feet and larger than 250 feet. We have tested the numbers the most in the range from 100 to 250 feet.

Our budget calculator factors in the fuel burn for a range of engine sizes typically seen installed on yachts by length. By dragging the green “fuel dockage” slider to the right you will increase the projected fuel burn rate and therefore the budget cost for fuel. Our default position would be for a typical displacement fuel burn. Position the slider in the 60-80% range for fuel projections for planning hulls.

Our default values produce a budget number that we believe is generous to run a yacht to a high standard. Perfect is a very expensive word to use in the yachting industry where standards are already high. Moving the crew and maintenance sliders to 80% will provide an “industry best” quality of crew and give them the maintenance budget to operate to a very high standard. If you need to go over the 80% area then you may have unusually labor intensive equipment on the yacht.

Yes, our yacht operating cost calculator can output a budget suitable for this situation. Adjust the owner use to 2 (minimum value), owner slider to 0, crew slider to 10%, Administration to 10%, Fuel and Dockage to 0, Maintenance to 10% and then Capital Repairs to 0. This will remove all of the large charges associated with owner use and vessel movement but leave the essential base maintenance and insurance in place.

Lift on and float in yacht transport is a popular way to transport yachts across large ocean passage. The yachts that this service certainly applies to are ones that may not have the motoring range or structural integrity for blue ocean cruising. The cost of transporting a yacht twice per year is put into our budget once the “Fuel Dockage” slider hits 75%. If your yacht has the range we recommend self-sufficient ocean passages whenever possible. Whilst the transport companies sell their services based upon reportedly well oiled operated schedules the reality is that your yacht may stay waiting for pickup for a week or more with no compensation due. When factoring in all secondary factors of self-sufficient passages (increased fuel, maintenance, potential storm damage, crew time off, extra delivery crew) compared with transporting your yacht (insurance, potential loading / unloading damage, loss of schedule control, no work whilst underway, crew flights, crew accommodation) we believe that there is a 100% premium associated with float in transport and a 75% premium with lift on transport compared with self-powered.

Abandoned yachts crash in value. We recommend that even if you are trying to sell your yacht that you use the yacht for a minimum of two weeks per year so that systems are tested and working every six months. There is nothing worse for a yacht than not being used. If you truly are not going to use the yacht then you should sell it immediately for the first genuine offer as every dollar you put into maintenance will not be recovered at the time of the sale.

We did not build this version with sailing yachts in mind. Early in our development of this version we decided to exclude sailing yachts as a few of the major cost drivers scale very differently for sailing yachts compared with motor yachts. For example: To calculate paint costs we reviewed the surface area of over 100 large yachts and created a formula for painted surface area to length. Sailing yachts just don’t scale in a consistent way. Similarly crew numbers don’t scale in the same manner that they do for motor yachts. If there is sufficient demand we may build a sailing selector switch into a future version of this tool.

We hate to hear when yacht owners were told by their broker to factor in 10% of the purchase price to operate the yacht. This over used saying is sadly right occasionally (particularly for newer yachts in the $20-30M range)… but just because a broken watch tells the right time twice a day you shouldn’t rely upon it to tell the time. As yachts get older their capital value decreases but their maintenance costs increase. There is no way that a fixed 10% of purchase cost rule can be true… if your broker told you this rule then you need a new yacht broker… we know some good ones. 😊

How much does it cost to purchase a superyacht?

Superyachts are amongst one of the world’s most exclusive purchases, with the finest vessels costing hundreds of millions of dollars. A luxury yacht is the ultimate lifestyle purchase for the world’s richest, offering flexibility, exclusivity, and the freedom to discover the world's hidden gems in unparalleled luxury.

While owning a superyacht comes with a plethora of benefits, many aspects come into play when deciding to purchase one. Working with a knowledgeable yacht broker, such as the team at Yachting Partners International, can help assist you in your search, by providing expert advice and guidance throughout your entire yachting journey.

The cost of buying a superyacht can vary considerably depending on the size, yacht and amenities you wish to purchase.

In general, the smaller the yacht, the lower the price, with superyachts of 24m or more usually attracting asking prices of over €1m, going up to an average of €11.42m in the 40m-50m category, €24.15m in the 50m-70m category and an average of €81.2m for yachts of 70m+.

Purchasing a motor yacht also tends to cost more than a sailing yacht. However, this is often because many sailing yachts on the market are older; a brand-new sailing yacht will still demand a high price.

It is also important to note that semi-custom yachts are often less expensive than customised superyachts. Of course, yachts decked out with beach clubs, sports courts, spas, fitness suites, and a toy box full of the latest water toys can cost much more.

Jeff Bezos's new 412-foot vessel is estimated to cost about US$500 million to build, and Elon Musk's first luxury Model Y Tesla yacht is ready to set sail, costing around $700 million.

What are the benefits of owning a superyacht?

An indication of prestige, few things match the experience of owning a superyacht. Each year, the world's best shipyards are taking shipbuilding to new levels of luxury, implementing the best design materials, advanced technologies, world-class amenities and environment-friendly features to meet the needs of discerning yacht owners.

Almost all luxury superyachts boast elegant onboard interiors, spacious saloons, and sublime sundecks. However, the world's largest superyachts offer amenities that can often rival a luxury resort, including swimming pools, helipads, wellness centres, private cinemas, beach clubs, sports courts, dive centres and more.

There is also the unparalleled level of service that goes into the onboard experience. From onboard chefs to specialist spas, the service goes above and beyond.

Superyacht owners are also treated with privacy and freedom, allowing them to beat the crowds and explore the world's blue water havens as and when they please.

The current superyacht market

Superyacht sales have boomed throughout the pandemic. According to figures in the latest edition of Boat International's Global Order Book, more than 1,200 superyachts are scheduled to be built in 2022 – a rise of 25% from last year. Currently, the total number of sales for 2022 stands at 33, with a combined value of €418m.

According to the Superyacht Group, the number of vessels delivered has grown 50% from 2020, with more than 700 superyachts sold in 2021.

The superyacht market boom is said to be a reaction to the pandemic as UHNW individuals seek ultra-private forms of transportation and accommodation, prioritising safety and hygiene.

Another factor to consider is the simultaneous advancement of technology and the fact that people can work from anywhere in the world, be it from home or the sundeck of their yacht whilst on vacation in the Bahamas.

Are there any hidden costs to owning a superyacht?

There's a range of extra costs to consider when purchasing a superyacht. Once you agree on a deal with your yacht broker, you can expect to pay around 10% of the yacht's value in annual operational costs, including crew, deck, engineering, fuel, insurance, maintenance and harbour expenses. Approximately 45% of the yearly budget is crew related, making up a large proportion of the overall costs.

Most owners choose to instruct an experienced yacht management company, such as the team at Yachting Partners International, who manage the day-to-day operations of the yacht, including crew, finance, compliance, maintenance and refits. This provides owners with worry-free yacht ownership enabling them to spend more time doing what they love.

Should I buy or charter a superyacht?

Depending on your preferences, many will vouch for owning a superyacht over chartering one. Of course, there are plenty of perks to chartering a yacht, and it's entirely down to the individual's needs and what they're looking for. For a prearranged vacation, chartering a yacht is a breeze with far less responsibility than owning a yacht.

However, nothing can beat the spontaneity and flexibility that comes with yacht ownership. You can travel on a whim with minimal notice with a bespoke itinerary tailored to your needs. The familiarity of having your own captain and crew is another perk as they can offer customised experiences based on your preferences.

Should I buy a new build yacht?

Purchasing a new build yacht is another approach to consider. The beauty of a new build means you can customise a superyacht to your style before it's even been built, meaning you can create your dream yacht and add just about anything – from helicopter landing pads to open-air cinemas.

Many billionaires have stamped their image on their vessels. Apple founder Steve Jobs created a sleek minimalist yacht reminiscent of his brand’s iconic products, while chemicals tycoon Sir Jim Ratcliffe designed an expedition-style ship that can carry helicopters and mini-subs.

However, it is worth bearing in mind that building a superyacht from scratch will invariably be more costly than buying a ready-built yacht. According to Forbes, a custom built 100-metre superyacht costs around $275 million. Additionally, custom yachts have a far longer lead-time, taking several years to design and build.

Alternatively, another popular option is a semi-custom superyacht. This allows for the best of both worlds, offering faster lead times and reduced costs, as well as the flexibility to personalise the yacht to your exact tastes and lifestyle.

Building a custom superyacht can be a superb experience when you work alongside a reputable yacht brokerage. Highly skilled agents are able to assist with all aspects of project management, including the technical and financial performance, surveys, classification, flag and technical regulatory paperwork and the delivery of the yacht.

Yacht Price

Price of a yacht, how much does a luxury boat cost?

Every year, the Monaco Yacht Show welcomes dozens of luxury yachts , each more majestic than the next. They range from 25 to 90 meters in length. But have you ever wondered how much such yachts cost? Abys Yachting provides you with some answers to determine the price of a yacht.

Costs and purchase price

First of all, it is important to understand that the cost of a yacht is not only the initial purchase price. It is an investment that generates a number of additional costs related to its use or maintenance. Also, this cost will necessarily differ from one boat to another, depending on the equipment it has, its size and its performance.  

Purchase price of a superyacht

Only a few lucky owners have these floating palaces. These boats are known for their unparalleled power, advanced technology and high quality equipment. Although everyone knows that such a boat is very expensive, few people really know where the high price of superyachts comes from.

The purchase price of a 100-meter superyacht is about 240 million euros. The VAT, depending on the country, can represent up to 1/4 of the price of the boat. In addition to this initial purchase price, there are several recurring costs that are important to consider when calculating the total cost.  

Fuel cost  

The fuel consumption of a yacht is one of the most important costs that cannot be avoided. However, not all yachts are equal when it comes to fuel consumption. Not only the engine, but also the weight and equipment of the yacht greatly influence the fuel consumption and therefore the cost of the yacht. For your information, a yacht measuring 70 meters in length consumes about 500 liters per hour. For such a boat, you will need to plan for an annual fuel budget of 350,000 euros.

Maintenance of the boat  

These sea behemoths require regular maintenance to ensure their proper functioning. The maintenance of a superyacht, with overhaul, mechanics, the larger and more complex the boat, the higher the cost. As an example, for a 50-meter boat, the maintenance cost is close to half a million dollars.  

The crew  

The crew represents the other part of the cost of a yacht. Indeed, a competent crew is necessary to make a yacht fully operational. The salary of the crew depends mostly on its size. Smaller boats will not need many sailors, while superyachts can reach crews of more than 50 people. Of all the crew members, the captain's salary represents the highest cost. It amounts to about 60,000 euros per year for small vessels, which can double or even triple for the largest yachts.  

Superyacht equipment

A superyacht is a particularly luxurious yacht that is distinguished by its size and its very high standard of equipment. For example, it is estimated that the Eclipse, one of the longest yachts in the world, cost its Russian owner Roman Abramovitch almost a billion euros.

For good reason, it has, among other things, two swimming pools, a nightclub, a cinema, a private garden, a health institute with jacuzzis, hammam and saunas, two helicopter pads, and even a harbor that can accommodate speedboats and a submarine!  

Purchase price of a yacht

As you can see, the purchase price of a yacht depends largely on its size. For an average yacht of about 40 meters, you will have to count on 12 million euros at the time of purchase. In addition to this, you will have to pay for maintenance, crew salaries, fuel consumption, and other costs that we have not detailed such as anchoring, mooring and insurance of the yacht.  

Price of a small yacht

If you want to join the happy yacht owners, you can find your happiness in the second-hand market. Some good ones can be found for less than €250,000. Still in the second-hand market, yachts of about 25m are more likely to be found between €500,000 and €1,500,000, depending on the recency of the vessel and its equipment.  

Price of a charter yacht

Most yacht owners sell their yacht within three years of purchase. These boats can then be bought back second hand, or put back into service, for charter . For example, a luxury superyacht of about 50 meters can be rented for up to 200,000 euros per week.  

To conclude on the price of yachts

Operational costs are an important part of the yacht price. Generally speaking, the larger the yacht, the more expensive it will be. Here is an order of magnitude that can simplify the estimation of the cost of a yacht: the operational cost is about 10% of the purchase price. Thus, the annual expenses of a yacht bought for 5 million euros new can be estimated at 500,000 euros per year.

How Much Does a Yacht Cost? Unveiling Yacht Pricing

When considering the cost of a yacht, the question that often arises is, " How much does a yacht cost ?" Much like inquiries about the cost of homes, this question needs a more straightforward answer. Yacht prices exhibit a wide range of variation, influenced by size, style, age, finishing details, and geographical location. The price spectrum for yachts is astonishingly broad, spanning millions of dollars, given the many yacht sizes available. Before delving into the specifics of yacht costs, it's essential to address the fundamental query: " What defines a yacht? "

Defining the Category of Yachts:

According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, yachts can be broadly categorized into sailing boats and motor-powered yachts . These recreational watercraft encompass many vessels, including sailboats for racing and large motor-driven craft for leisure cruising. While size is not an explicit definition component, it significantly influences the classification.

In the industry, boats measuring between 40 and 70 feet are commonly called " yachts ," though some include vessels as short as 33 feet in this category. Notably, the concept of superyachts has evolved. In the past, yachts as small as 80 feet were considered superyachts, but with the advent of much larger vessels, a length of 130 feet is now more commonly associated with this distinction . Beyond that, there are megayachts, typically starting at 165 or 200 feet.

The crux lies in the absence of rigid criteria; one person's modest 20-foot sailboat may be regarded as a luxury sailing yacht by another. Generally, a boat is called a gleaming private vessel measuring 40 feet or more .

Beyond Size: Amenities Aboard:

While size is pivotal in labeling vessels as yachts, onboard amenities also contribute to the classification. Boats often feature cabins and heads below decks, facilitating overnight stays, a galley, and ample deck space for leisure activities .

The term 'yacht' has acquired connotations of luxury, particularly with the proliferation of enormous superyachts worldwide. However, luxury is not a prerequisite for yachts; a lively 30-foot trawler yacht may appear opulent to some, while others, like Jeff Bezos and the guests aboard his new $500 million sailing yacht Koru, might have a divergent perspective.

Understanding the Price of Yachts:

Attempting to determine an average price for yachts across all categories proves to be an exercise in futility, given the vast range of yacht sizes, spanning from 30 to 300 feet, and the distinction between new and used boats. To provide a general overview, purchasing a small used sailing yacht for as little as $15,000 in the United States is possible, while small motor yachts may cost between $50,000 and $100,000 . Larger motor yachts or new 40-foot day boats can effortlessly reach prices exceeding $1 million . Superyachts, on the other hand, invariably command multi-million-dollar valuations.

Ongoing Ownership Costs:

The expenses associated with yacht ownership extend beyond the initial purchase price. Even for those considering smaller yachts, it's imperative to account for annual costs, including :

• Marina Fees : Fees vary based on location and boat size, ranging from $5,000 for smaller yachts to tens of thousands for larger vessels.
• Insurance : Typically, annual insurance costs amount to approximately 0.5% of the boat's value.
• Maintenance and Repairs : Roughly 10% of the boat's value is allocated to care each year, with new yachts potentially incurring lower expenses.
• Fuel : Costs fluctuate depending on cruising distance and yacht size.
• Crew : While yachts up to 70 or 80 feet may not necessitate a team, larger vessels require more extensive staffing. Crew salaries range from $3,200 monthly for junior crew members to $10,500 monthly for captains and chief engineers.
• Depreciation : New boats experience the most significant depreciation, often losing 40 to 50% of their initial value within 8 to 10 years.

Categories of Yachts Based on Cost:

When discussing yachts and their price points, size usually takes center stage. Nevertheless, the style, engine size and finishing touches substantially influence costs . This examination will investigate average price disparities between new and used yachts in the United States, categorized by size.

Small Yachts (25 to 40 feet):

Small yachts, typically around 40 feet, fall within the realm of cabin cruisers and represent an entry-level option above smaller day boats. These vessels often feature cabins, heads, and small galleys, offering opportunities for weekend getaways . Prices vary considerably based on whether the yacht is new or used and factors like the model, finish, and engines. New and recent models of 38 to 40-foot boats may range from $250,000 to over $1 million , while older models often carry significantly lower price tags. According to the Boats Group Market Index of 2022, the average price in the United States for all new and used yachts measuring between 36 and 45 feet was $238,000 .

Smaller yachts, ranging from 25 to 30 feet, typically lack cabins and are considered day cruisers. Motor cruisers within this size bracket can cost anywhere from $70,000 for nearly new models to well over $100,000 for brand-new ones . Variations in engine size and layout complexity will impact prices, with premium finish and accommodations commanding higher costs. For instance, a new Ranger 29 (a pocket trawler) starts at over $350,000 .

Medium-Sized Yachts (40 to 70 feet):

Mid-sized yachts within the 40- to 70-foot range exhibit a price range extending from approximately $250,000 to over $4 million . This pricing spectrum hinges on size, model, finish, engines, additional features, and whether the yacht is new or used. The Boats Group Market Index 2022 reports that the average price of vessels measuring 46 to 55 feet in the United States was $467,899 , with 2,273 boats sold. The average price in the 56 to 79-foot category was $1.18 million, with 997 yachts sold in 2022 .

The cost of a yacht is substantially influenced by whether it is new or used. For instance, the base price of a new Viking 58 is $4.1 million, while a three-year-old model can be acquired for $3.5 million. A 10-year-old version may cost around $600,000 . For additional comparisons, one can explore new and used luxury yachts for sale.

Sailing Yachts:

Long before the advent of combustion engines, sailing yachts or sailboats have graced the world's oceans for centuries. While contemporary perspectives often equate boats with luxurious motor vessels, sailing boats maintain their distinct identity . When assessing the price of a sailing ship, factors such as size, age, and finishing details come into play, resulting in valuations ranging from $5,000 to several million dollars , with superyachts commanding even higher prices. The largest sailing yacht globally is Sailing Yacht A, measuring 470 feet and costing an estimated $600 million .

For larger sailing yachts, particularly those around 100 feet in length, a " rule of thumb " suggests an approximate cost of $1 million per every 3 feet. Consequently, a 100-foot yacht might carry a price tag of around $30 million. As one descends the length spectrum, smaller, used sailing boats may be available at a fraction of that cost . A 55-foot boat with a few years of sailing history may sell for approximately $700,000 , while a new one could easily exceed $2 million. For older sailing yachts ranging from 30 to 40 years in age and measuring 30 to 35 feet, prices could be as low as $25,000 , while brand-new counterparts may exceed $250,000 in cost.

Luxury Yachts and Superyachts:

Superyachts rank among the most abundant vessels at sea and come with a substantial price tag. As mentioned previously, yachts measuring 78 feet (24 meters) or more are commonly categorized as superyachts, although the definition may extend to vessels exceeding 165 or 200 feet and even those over 300 feet. Operating such extensive vessels requires a full-time crew, significantly inflating overall expenses . According to some estimates, the cost of building a new, top-of-the-line custom superyacht can range up to $1 million per foot of length. Used superyachts command lower prices, with potential purchases of 10-year-old, 90-foot superyachts priced around $2.5 million . More recent models, less than five years old, tend to approach the $4 million range, while brand-new superyachts may cost around $9 million . Prospective buyers can explore listings for superyachts for sale worldwide.

Megayachts:

Upon entering the realm of megayachts, prices escalate in tandem with vessel length and interior volume. The largest megayacht globally, Azzam, measures 590 feet and boasts a construction cost of $600 million . Yachts in this class represent the pinnacle of luxury, offering features such as expansive swimming pools, helicopter pads, generous guest and crew accommodations, beach clubs, and much more. The upkeep costs for vessels of this size can surpass $20 million, encompassing crew fees, fuel, mooring expenses, insurance, provisions, and maintenance . To witness some of the world's most awe-inspiring superyachts and megayachts, one can refer to superyacht travel guides or search for megayachts for sale.

Final Thoughts: How Much Does a Yacht Cost?

In conclusion, understanding a yacht's cost entails considering various factors, including size, style, age, finishing details, and whether the vessel is new or used . These factors collectively determine the price range, extending from thousands of dollars to millions or even billions for the most extravagant superyachts and megayachts.

Welcome to the opulent world of yachting, where the sparkling seas beckon and the allure of the high seas whispers the promise of luxury and leisure. For many, the dream of owning a yacht symbolizes the ultimate in success and lifestyle achievement.

This table provides an overarching view of the potential costs associated with different types of yachts, which helps in setting expectations for prospective buyers. Now, let’s look at the recurrent costs associated with yacht ownership.

Cost of Yacht Ownership

Owning a yacht is associated with several continuous expenses that maintain the vessel’s operational status and value. Below is a table outlining the typical annual costs you can expect once you’ve acquired your yacht.

Q: How significant are the ongoing costs of owning a yacht?

Q: Can I charter my yacht to offset ownership costs?

A: Yes, chartering your yacht can provide income, but it also entails additional wear and management considerations. Consult with a yacht management company for guidance.

Average Yacht Prices | 40, 50, 60, 70, 100 feet + Helpful Examples

How much do yachts cost? Let’s look at yacht prices per size.

SELECT SIZE ⇩

Note: We will look at yachts that are a few years old. Very few people buy brand-new yachts as the price comes down a lot after only a few years.

How much is a small yacht? Let’s start at 40 feet length.

40 Foot Yacht Cost

A 40-foot yacht can be found used for around $200,000 and new models can cost as much as a million dollars. There are always lots of used yachts for sale around 40 feet in length, which makes them more attractive to first-time buyers.

Technically, a yacht begins at 23 feet. However, yachts that size will more often be referred to as boats.

A 40-foot yacht is a great option for looking for relative simplicity and plenty of comfort and capability. This size is great for day trips in the Caribbean dedicated to speed boating or simple cruising.

The size remains manageable, but the vessel can be updated with extra living spaces and amenities as desired, with a more affordable price than larger options.

The maintenance prices will remain lower as well.

Make sure you are considering the age of your yacht. Even if it is on the smaller end, it will be more expensive if it is new and custom-built to your wants.

Even if you think a 40-foot yacht is the cheapest option, these small factors make for a sliding price scale.

You might find that a smaller, new, custom yacht is more expensive than an older, simpler, larger yacht. One benefit of an older yacht is that it should have the improvements and equipment that make it comfortable to operate and will not have those additional costs.

For  sailboat prices specifically, check out this article .

Our Pick: Viking 42 Convertible: Cruise and Fish (2014)

Price: $895,000

• Cushioned seats
• Underwater lights
• Flybridge fiberglass hard-top

• Joystick control
• Cockpit shade with poles, freezer, and step-up box
• Custom chairs
• Coach roof overhang to provide shade
• home theater setup
• Freshwater wash area
• Cockpit freezer and drink box
• Forward-facing viewing windows in deckhouse

Here’s a great example of a yacht with differing ages and year models. It has twin diesel engines, 600 hp each, and cruise at 35 mph (pretty fast!).

Yacht Price Examples for Three Other 40-50 Foot

• 42-foot Grand Banks 42 Classic; trawler-cruiser style yacht; twin diesel, 350 hp each, cruising speed is 13 mph. Price: $370,000 for 2004; $124,500 for 1986; older ones for less
• 45-foot Sea Ray 450 Sundancer or Sedan Bridge; single or twin diesel, about 1,000 hp total; cruising speed about 26 mph Price: $472,000 for 2012 twin-engine
• 41-foot Back Cove Downeast; single diesel 715 hp; cruising speed is 26 mph Price: $619,000 for 2016

50 Foot Yacht Cost

50-foot yachts are  normally owner-operated, so you wouldn’t need to pay for a crew. Now we are around the size of 2-bedroom yachts.

They can provide more living space giving the owner flexibility for more guests and making it a more permanent residential option. With more space comes the opportunity to install more amenities as well.

The biggest difference between the 40-foot vessel and the 50-foot is the accommodations.

Expect three-cabin layouts, which give plenty of space for rest. The opportunity to create guest rooms, owners’ suite, and entertainment spaces are better with these yachts.

Our Pick: Hatteras GT54 Convertible Sportfish

The price for the 2017 model of this used yacht starts at $2,249,000. 

This yacht is 53′ 10″ long and weighs 75,000 pounds! It has twin diesel engines, 1,300 hp each, cruising speed of 35 mph.

It has a 1200-gallon fuel capacity with three staterooms. It sleeps up to 6 people, so it is perfect for entertaining without being so large to the point where maintenance becomes very difficult. It is known for its great propulsion rates and is very smooth and agile.

It specializes as a fishing boat but allows plenty of room for guests. In addition to the three staterooms, it has a large salon deck, a spacious galley, and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

Yacht Price Examples for Two Other 50 Foot

• 51-foot Azimut Magellano 50; express cruiser; twin diesel engines, 425 hp each, cruising speed 16 mph Price: $670,760 for 2013
• 52-foot Carver C52 Command Bridge; twin diesel engines, 600 hp each; cruising speed 18- 26 mph Price: $1,149,000 for 2017; $1,750,00 for 2021 with bow thrusters, gyro-stabilizer

How much is a large yacht? Let’s  step up to 60 foot.

60 Foot Yacht Cost

Now we’re looking at 2-bedroom yacht prices. A yacht in this range approaches the upper end of the owner/operator criteria.

This means that owners need to decide whether they can handle this size yacht on their own or if they need to hire outside help from a crew.

If you’re thinking of buying a boat this size, the cost may not be an issue, but understand that adding crew members adds substantial extra expenses! Crew salaries start at around $3K /mth for junior members and $10K for captains and experienced crew members.

This size is great for longer travels beyond day trips and adds more and more space for extra amenities. Hosting guests becomes easier.

Here are some examples:

Our Pick: Hatteras M60

The average base price for this model is around $2,995,000.

The Hatteras M60 is great for someone who wants the luxury of a larger yacht but still wants to be an owner-operator. The deck’s layout below and above is spacious, with a large salon and a full master suite. It can be customized to order with hardwood floors or specific carpeting and amenities like TVs, a bar, a full kitchen, etc. It is a motor yacht, meant for pleasure cruising.

It has twin diesel engines, 1135 hp each; cruising speed is 28 mph.

Yacht Price Examples for Two Other 60 Foot

• 64-foot Schaefer 640; express cruiser; twin diesel engines, 625 hp each; cruising speed 25 mph Price: $1,299,000 for 2017
• 60-foot Sunreef 62 Sailing Catamaran; twin diesel engines 110 hp each; cruising speed 10 mph Price: $990,000 for 2009

70 Foot Yacht Cost

We’re now looking at 3-bedroom yachts. Once you reach this size yacht, it is almost guaranteed you will need a crew to help operate it. A crewed yacht is very different from an owner-operated yacht.

This is just shy of the superyacht category, so if you settle on this size, know you are almost there!

As previously mentioned, as the yacht size gets larger, so do the number of factors that make the purchase more layered and complex.

When yachts reach this size, the interior layout begins to change more drastically. They often have a spacious main deck perfect for dining and entertaining guests, whereas below, the yacht would likely have four or more cabins and crew quarters.

With more rooms comes more cost and more opportunity to customize the space to make it your own.

Here are some great options for this size:

Our Pick: Hatteras GT70 Convertible Sportfish

The 2017 GT70 model runs around $4,500,000, but keep in mind the extra costs of maintenance, furnishing, and a cabin crew to help it run. It’s great for a long vacation and far-away destinations.

The GT70 convertible sportfish is known for its speed and agility, and high propulsion power. It has twin diesel engines, 1900 hp each; cruising speed over 30 mph.

It is 70′ 6″ with 2,140-gallon fuel capacity. The inside is lavish, with a galley, a huge salon, and five staterooms.

Yacht Price Examples for Two Other 70 Foot

• 74-foot Ocean Alexander Motoryacht; twin diesel, 1150 hp each; cruising speed 24 mph. Price: $1,895,000 for 2011

100 Foot Yacht Costs (and up):

You are officially in the superyacht range.

These yachts come in all styles and shapes, allowing for cruising along coastlines or focusing on watercraft and speed boating.

Since this is likely the peak size boat for practical use, you can expect a lot of additional costs for hiring a crew, maintenance, docking, as well as stocking your boat full of amenities. 

You’re likely to spend the bulk of your costs furnishing this size boat as bigger yachts typically are sold without furniture. The previous owner will want to hold on to designer furniture and other expensive interior.

Check out these great  examples of 100-foot yachts .

Our Pick: 143′ 04″ Virtus 44

This model cost around $20,189,000.

This mega yacht is anyone’s dream.

• 161′ 04″ Acico Nassima Price: $17,933,000 for 2012

How Much is Yacht Insurance?

Insurance on a yacht is around 1% of the purchase price per year. It can go higher if you have lots of expensive designer furniture. This can add up over the years. It’s often cheaper to insure a sailing yacht but the price range is still within the 0.7-1.3%.

What Other Expenses Do Yacht Owners Face?

Harbor fees is another expense for yacht owners. It’s also a yearly fee that varies but as a rule of thumb, you can expect to pay around $100 per foot per year, depending on how popular the marina is. You will also have to be on a waitlist if you want a good location.

How Much Does a Luxury Yacht Cost?

A super yacht fall under the category of “luxury yachts” or “mega-yachts”.

The world’s largest private vessel belongs to the Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates, Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s Azzam. It is 590 feet long and costs $600 million to build!

It is outliers like these that increase the price average for yacht owners, perhaps scaring potential owners when they start their research.

As a luxury yacht price guide, however, we need to look at averages.

Currently, the average superyacht costs $275 million. This does not even account for maintenance costs, either.

Superyachts are large and luxurious, needing a professional crew to help them run. They are designed to emphasize comfort, speed, and longer expeditions – depending on the yacht builders.

They might have:

• swimming pools,
• water toys,
• diving and fishing poles,
• fully furnished rooms,
• helicopter landing pads,
• and smaller support vessels

Just to name a few amenities. They are truly the epitome of the elite.

What Size Boat is Considered a Yacht?

The normal yacht length starts at around 23 feet, and can extend hundreds of feet.  If the boat meets 23 feet, it can be considered a yacht.

A boat does not need luxury features to be considered a yacht.

It can be minimal and stripped of the “extra” stuff to fall into the yacht category, so long as it meets the size and length criteria.

11 Things to Consider Before You Purchase

When making this purchase, the yacht size you buy needs to reflect what you hope to get out of the vessel.

Some important questions to ask yourself before you buy are:

• What does your perfect day on the water look like?
• How long will your average day on the water be?
• Will it be more boating/watercraft focused or long cruise focused?
• Will you use the yacht for fishing?
• Will you be on the yacht every day of the week or just on weekends?
• How many people do you hope to fit on the yacht?
• Do you plan to stay on the yacht overnight?
• Where will you dock the yacht?
• How much boating experience do you have?
• How fast do you want the yacht to go?
• How important is it to have extra amenities like furnished rooms, water toys, electronics, etc.?

These questions will guide you to understand the size you really need and will be able to realistically maintain versus what your most ideal yacht would look like.

When Do You Need a Full-Time Crew?

At length over 50 or 60 feet, you may need a full-time captain or crew. 

A full-time crew person will be needed to keep all the varnished woodwork looking good and all the little things maintained.

Sometimes, you must be honest with yourself about what you want and what you actually need. Be self-aware about your abilities (or lack thereof) in taking care of a specific size yacht.

If you don’t know much about boats and navigation, you will need more help to use your vessel.

Hopefully, this comprehensive guide gives you a good starting point as you begin your yacht price research process.

Important Things to Consider As Well

Although there are many factors to consider when understanding a yacht’s prices, it is an exciting purchase nonetheless and should be enjoyed as much as possible.

At the end of your research, you’ll be the owner of a beautiful yacht you can use for leisure, cruising, sports craft, fishing, or all of the above.

Although this article is a good starting point, we would also recommend getting in touch with a  yacht broker who can help you find your best fit , model, year, and the price is given your personal budget. 

They are great sources of knowledge in addition to personal research.

Make sure you are as patient as possible in this process to make sure you are covering all your bases, but most importantly, enjoy the process!

Here’s How Much Yachts Cost on Average:

Yachts start around $300,000 for smaller 40-foot models and can go as high as several hundred million dollars for superyachts.

These are the main contributing factors to the price of a yacht:

• The size of the yacht
• The age of the yacht
• The brand and  type of yacht

In general, the larger the yacht is, the more important the quality of the build becomes.

Also, potential owners need to understand the cruising speed and propulsion of different yachts.

The yacht type is also broken down into two categories:

• Mediterranean Style Open style expresses yacht with maximum space for sun, little-to-no shade on the deck.
• Hard-top express Semi-enclosed or fully-enclosed space on deck for the operator
• Flybridge yachts

An express yacht is often referred to interchangeably as an  express cruiser  or  sports cruiser .

It has a single deck above the hull with a living space below.

They are much sleeker, too.

A flybridge yacht is often referred to as a sedan bridge or sport bridge, and it is typically used for fishing. It has additional space above the main deck.

Since the flybridge area has more space on the second deck, the main deck is normally made up of enclosed spaces and rooms.

It can have an open-air layout but can also have a hard-top.

Types and Sizes of Yachts

When considering the cost of a yacht, it's important to understand the various types and sizes available in the market.

In this section, we will explore some of the main categories of yachts, including sailing yachts vs. motor yachts and the range of sizes from small to superyachts.

Sailing Yacht Vs. Motor Yacht

There are two main types of yachts: sailing yachts and motor yachts.

Sailing yachts rely on wind power and sails for propulsion, making them more eco-friendly and fuel-efficient. They come in a variety of sizes and styles, with smaller sailboats starting around 23 feet in length. Some popular designs include sloops, cutters, and ketches.

Meanwhile, motor yachts use engines for propulsion, offering more speed, power, and maneuverability. These yachts typically range from around 30 to 100 feet, although larger motor yachts can also be classified as superyachts. Motor yachts are often equipped with a luxurious interior, offering the utmost comfort and entertainment for guests.

Small Yachts to Superyachts

Small Yachts (10,000-$100,000):

Small yachts generally range from 23 to 40 feet in length. These yachts are more affordable and easier to maintain, making them attractive to first-time buyers. They can be both sailing yachts and small motor yachts. Examples of small yachts include sportfishing boats, family cruisers, and day sailers.

Midsize Yachts ($100,000-$1,000,000):

Midsize yachts typically range from 40 to 60 feet in length. The price of a midsize yacht can vary greatly, with used models going around $200,000 while new ones can go up to a million dollars. They offer more space, better amenities, and improved performance compared to small yachts. Midsize yachts can also be classified as sailing yachts or motor yachts.

Large Yachts ($1,000,000 and up):

Large yachts typically range from 60 to 100 feet in length. These luxurious vessels come with a higher price tag, often costing multiple millions of dollars. Large yachts offer plenty of space for entertaining, as well as state-of-the-art technology and amenities. They come in both sailing and motor yacht varieties.

Superyachts ($10,000,000 and up):

Superyachts are the pinnacle of luxury and sophistication, typically measuring over 100 feet in length. They feature extravagant amenities, such as helipads, swimming pools, and even movie theaters. The price of a superyacht can be astronomical, at times exceeding $10 million or more.

Cost Factors for New and Used Yachts

When determining the cost of a yacht, whether new or used, several factors come into play. These include the age and condition , size and style, brand and model, and location and availability of the yacht.

Each of these factors plays a significant role in the overall cost, so understanding them can help buyers make an informed decision.

Age and Condition

The age of a yacht naturally impacts its price. A brand-new yacht typically commands a higher price than a used one. However, the condition of a used yacht can also greatly influence its value. A well-maintained, used yacht in excellent condition may be more expensive than a newer model with issues or wear and tear.

Size and Style

The size and style of the yacht also play a crucial role in determining the cost.

Generally, larger yachts come with a higher price tag. For example, the average price of a yacht in the United States for vessels 46 to 55 feet was $467,899, while the average price for yachts in the 56 to 79 foot category was $1.18 million.

The style of the yacht, such as a sailboat, power catamaran, or luxury yacht, can have a significant effect on the price as well.

Brand and Model

The yacht's brand and model also contribute to its price. Some yacht brands are known for their luxury, craftsmanship, and performance, which can lead to a higher cost.

On the other hand, more affordable brands may offer similar amenities and functionality at a more budget-friendly price.

It's essential to research different yacht brands and models to find the one that best suits your preferences and budget.

Location and Availability

The location of the yacht, along with its availability in the market, can influence the overall cost.

In some regions, yacht prices may be higher due to factors such as demand, local taxes, or shipping costs. Additionally, if a specific model is in high demand or limited supply, its price may be elevated due to scarcity.

Initial Purchase Price

Buying New Vs. Pre-Owned

When considering the initial purchase price of a yacht, one of the first decisions a buyer faces is whether to buy a new or pre-owned yacht.

New yachts typically come with the latest technology, design, and customization options, but they also come at a higher price.

On the other hand, pre-owned yachts can be significantly more budget-friendly, but may require more maintenance and lack the latest features.

The average price of a yacht in the United States for vessels 46 to 55 feet was $467,899, while the average price for yachts in the 56 to 79-foot category was $1.18 million. These prices can vary depending on whether the yacht is new or used.

The Buying Process

The process of buying a yacht typically involves researching the market, selecting the right size and type of yacht, identifying suitable yachts, negotiating the price, and completing the purchase.

Working with a professional yacht broker can be beneficial in streamlining this process for the buyer as they can provide expert guidance in selecting the right yacht to fit the buyer's needs and budget.

Costs to Consider

In addition to the initial purchase price, there are various other costs that should be taken into account when buying a yacht. These include:

• Insurance : Buyers should consider the cost of insuring the yacht. Insurance fees, among other factors, are influenced by the size and value of the yacht.
• Marina fees : Docking the yacht at a marina will incur fees, which can range from a few thousand dollars for smaller yachts to tens of thousands for larger ones.
• Maintenance : Maintenance costs can make up around 10% of the initial purchase price. For used yachts, be prepared to spend on essential repairs and upgrades as needed.
• Fuel : The cost of fuel is influenced by the yacht's size, engine type, and cruising frequency.

Operational and Maintenance Costs

Crew Expenses

One of the significant expenses associated with owning a yacht is paying the crew salaries .

The number of crew members and their respective positions will vary depending on the size and complexity of the yacht. For example, a 180-foot superyacht may have an annual crew expense of around $1.4 million.

It is essential to account for additional crew-related costs such as insurance, training, and uniforms.

Fuel and Propulsion

Another considerable aspect of yacht ownership is fuel costs. The amount of fuel consumption will largely depend on the yacht's size, propulsion system, and usage patterns.

For instance, a larger yacht may incur around $400,000 for fuel annually.

It is also worth considering the potential expenses for any necessary upgrades or maintenance of the propulsion systems to ensure optimal performance and efficiency.

Repairs and Upkeep

Maintaining the yacht's appearance and condition requires regular maintenance and repairs . These expenses can quickly add up. Annual maintenance costs for a superyacht could reach up to $1 million.

This includes expenses for cleaning, teak oils, wax, and polish to keep the yacht looking immaculate. It is often recommended to allocate around 10% of the yacht's value to cover annual maintenance costs.

Dockage and Storage

Mooring fees, marina fees, and storage are additional factors to consider when estimating the operational costs of a yacht. Dockage costs typically depend on the yacht’s size and the chosen location.

On average, a superyacht may have an annual dockage expense of around $350,000 .

Additional Ownership Costs

Yacht insurance is a significant cost that should be factored into your decision to buy a yacht. The cost of insurance can vary based on the size, type, and value of the yacht.

For example, a 180-foot superyacht may have insurance costs upwards of $240,000 per year .

Obtaining quotes from various providers is essential. Remember that rates can fluctuate based on factors such as the yacht's condition and the owner's boating experience.

Taxes and Registration

Owning a yacht also comes with local and federal taxes and registration fees. Tax rates can vary depending on the state or country where the boat is registered.

In the United States, some states have a sales tax for yacht purchase, while others have an annual personal property tax. Make sure to research the applicable taxes and registration fees in your area to include them in the overall cost of ownership.

Depreciation

Another factor to consider when purchasing a yacht is depreciation. Over time, the value of most yachts will decrease, much like automobiles.

The rate of depreciation may differ based on the yacht's make, model, and age. To account for this potential decrease in value, make sure to have a proper maintenance plan in place and be prepared for the potential resale-value drop.

Extra Amenities and Upgrades

Finally, extra amenities and upgrades can significantly impact the cost of owning a yacht. Additional features such as upgraded electronics, specialized navigation systems, enhanced entertainment systems, or custom interior finishes can add considerably to the base cost of ownership.

Also, consider ongoing costs associated with these amenities, such as maintenance, repairs, and replacements. Budgeting for these additional expenses is critical to ensure your enjoyment of the yacht without financial strain.

Real Cost of Yacht Ownership

Owning a yacht is a luxury many people dream of, but it comes with significant costs. This section will discuss the real cost of yacht ownership , looking at the rule of thumb for annual costs and investment considerations.

Rule of Thumb for Annual Costs

When estimating the cost of owning a yacht, a general rule of thumb is that annual costs will be around 10% of the initial purchase price. This includes expenses such as maintenance, fuel, insurance, and crew salaries.

For example, a 180-foot superyacht could have an annual budget of $1 million for maintenance, $400,000 for fuel, $240,000 for insurance, and $1.4 million for the crew.

Another example is a 50-foot yacht , which may have ongoing costs between $35,000 and $85,000 per year.

• Maintenance and Repairs: The cost of maintaining a yacht can range from $1,000 to over $1 million per year, depending on the size and complexity of the vessel.
• Dockage: Yacht owners should budget around $350,000 annually for marina fees.
• Fuel: Depending on the size and type of yacht, fuel expenses can be substantial, averaging around $400,000 per year for a large vessel.
• Insurance: Insurance premiums for yachts can range from a few thousand dollars to upwards of $240,000 per year.
• Crew Salaries: Crew salaries can account for the largest portion of yacht ownership costs. A large yacht may require a crew with an annual budget of $1.4 million.

Investment Considerations

When thinking of purchasing a yacht as an investment, potential owners should consider several factors.

Yachts depreciate in value over time, making them a less attractive investment compared to traditional assets such as stocks and real estate.

Additionally, the high cost of ownership may make yacht investment less viable for some individuals.

Keep in mind that while some owners charter their yachts to offset costs, this strategy may not fully cover annual expenses. Moreover, chartering exposes the yacht to additional wear and tear, which can result in higher maintenance costs.

Life on Board

Amenities and Comfort

Life on a yacht offers a unique blend of luxury and comfort. Yachts often come equipped with a variety of amenities to make living on board as enjoyable as possible.

One common feature is the cabin , which provides comfortable sleeping quarters and private spaces for relaxation. Some yacht cabins even have their own ensuite bathrooms for added convenience.

A well-designed galley is essential on a yacht, providing the space and facilities needed to prepare meals and store provisions.

Modern yacht galleys often come equipped with high-quality appliances and ample storage space to ensure a pleasant dining experience.

On larger yachts, additional amenities may include swimming pools , outdoor lounges, and spacious deck areas for sunbathing and relaxation. Some superyachts also feature helipads , allowing for easy access to transport and travel to and from the yacht.

Entertaining and Lifestyle

A yacht is not just a floating home, but also a platform for entertaining and socializing. The deck space on a yacht offers a fantastic setting for outdoor gatherings, while a well-appointed cabin cruiser can serve as an ideal venue for more intimate events.

Entertaining on a yacht often involves a range of activities, from casual get-togethers to formal dinners with friends, family, or business associates.

A key factor in this lifestyle is the yacht's finish – the quality of the materials, furnishings, and décor that contribute to an atmosphere of luxury and sophistication.

With such an array of amenities and entertainment options, life on a yacht combines the best aspects of comfort, luxury, and a captivating lifestyle.

How Much Does a Yacht Cost? The Average Prices and Costs of Yachts

The UK has a long, rich maritime history and, as such, the yachting industry thrives in this country. Sailing is a popular hobby or pastime for many people, and for others it’s very much a lifestyle.

If you’re in the latter category, you might be looking to buy your own and be contemplating the cost of a yacht. There’s a huge variety of vessels available – from motor yachts to a sporting yacht – and the sheer amount of choice and variety of yacht sizes can seem bewildering.  There are also a number of additional costs to consider, such as  yacht insurance . This is something we can help you with at Admiral Marine.

How Much Does a Yacht Cost? The Average Price of a Yacht in the UK

While yachts are often regarded as synonymous with luxury, in reality they come in a startling range of sizes, designs, and prices. The average cost of buying a yacht in the UK varies considerably, according to a number of factors.

Whether you’re looking to buy a used vessel or a brand-new yacht, as well as the size and type of yacht you want, will all partly determine the price you’ll pay.

How Much is a Small Yacht?

At the cheaper end of the market, you should expect to pay a minimum of £10,000 for a small sailing model which will be functional but modest, with the price rising to £50,000 or more for a new, more sophisticated, motorised yacht.

If you’re looking for something more spacious with a range of additional features, mid-range yachts in the UK are often priced between £50,000 and £500,000. These boats may come with more advanced navigation equipment, refined interiors, and extra amenities. These are more suitable for experienced sailors who are prepared to spend more on their passion.

Larger, motor-driven yachts will set you back hundreds of thousands of pounds. For example, a new 50-foot yacht costs upwards of £200,000, whereas a 70-foot yacht or 100-foot yacht will set you back anywhere from £1 million to many times that sum.

How Much Does a Super Yacht Cost?

In terms of top tier yachts – or “super yachts” – these can cost millions or even tens of millions of pounds and upwards. These vessels are often enormous (ranging from 120 feet to 300 feet in length). They epitomise luxury and may have multiple decks, along with swimming pools, helipads and sophisticated entertainment facilities.

Yacht servicing and maintenance: the costs involved

While the upfront cost of buying a yacht is substantial, there are a number of supplementary fees that apply to yacht ownership. You can expect to pay between 5% and 10% of the yacht’s initial purchase price on such annual costs. Here are a few to consider:

• Insuring your yacht is essential and the price will vary according to its value, its size and its intended function. We can provide insurance for a variety vessels, including  sailing yacht insurance and motor boat insurance . Contact us now to receive a  bespoke quote .
• Maintaining your yacht. Additional costs might come in the form of engine servicing or repairs.
• Finding the right place to dock your yacht is crucial and can be expensive, particularly in popular marinas. Annual mooring fees vary considerably depending on the location and the size of the vessel.

Owning a yacht is an aspiration for many people, but it’s important to bear in mind the costs associated with buying one.

You should begin your search having already established a rough budget, the size of the vessel you’d like to purchase and what you’ll principally be using it for. Otherwise, the yacht market can seem overwhelmingly diverse, making it difficult to choose the right model for you.

What is the average price of a yacht?

The average price of a yacht in the UK is difficult to determine due to the variety on offer. A yacht can cost anywhere from around £10,000 to several million pounds before you start to get into super yacht territory. That said, a mid-sized sailboat should cost you between £50,000 and £100,000.

What is the price of a luxury yacht?

The price of a luxury yacht depends on whether you’re looking for a high-spec sailing vessel or a “super yacht”. For the former, the price will be upwards of £1 million, while the latter could exceed £100 million.

How much does a yacht cost to rent?

The cost of renting a yacht varies enormously, depending on what sort of vessel you’re looking for. A mid-sized motorboat or sailing yacht costs around £400 – £1,600 per day, while a much larger, luxury yacht could easily cost around £10,000 per day.

Der Preis einer 30-Meter-Yacht: Die entscheidenden Faktoren

Die Kosten einer 30-Meter-Yacht: Ein Überblick über die bestimmenden Faktoren

30-Meter-Yachten sind der Inbegriff von Luxus und Opulenz in der Welt der Freizeitschifffahrt. Sie bieten nicht nur ein außergewöhnliches Kreuzfahrterlebnis, sondern sind auch Statussymbole und Erfolgsgaranten. Dennoch ist es wichtig, sich zu fragen: Wie viel kostet eine Yacht dieser Größe wirklich? In diesem Artikel erkunden wir die verschiedenen Faktoren, die den Preis dieser Traumschiffe beeinflussen.

Größe und Eigenschaften

Der erste entscheidende Teil der Kosten einer 30-Meter-Yacht ist natürlich ihre Größe und ihre Ausstattung. Je größer die Jacht ist und je mehr luxuriöse Einrichtungen sie hat, desto höher wird ihr Preis sein. Yachten dieser Größe können sich in Bezug auf das Design, die verwendeten Materialien und die Ausstattung an Bord stark unterscheiden, was sich erheblich auf die Kosten auswirkt. Hochwertige Materialien, geräumige Kabinen, gut ausgestattete Küchen und hochmoderne Unterhaltungssysteme treiben die Preise in die Höhe.

Die Marke und das Modell

Die Marke und das Modell der Jacht spielen ebenfalls eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Bestimmung der Kosten. Weltweit bekannte Werften bieten Yachten oft zu höheren Preisen an, da sie für die Qualität der Konstruktion und des Designs bekannt sind. Darüber hinaus sind individuell gestaltete oder einzigartige Yachten, die von renommierten Architekten entworfen wurden, in der Regel teurer als Serienmodelle.

Die Ausstattungen und Extras

Ein weiterer wichtiger Faktor ist die Liste der Ausrüstungsgegenstände und Extras, die Sie auf Ihrer Yacht unterbringen möchten. Die Optionen zur individuellen Gestaltung sind nahezu unbegrenzt, von Infinity-Pools über Hubschrauberlandeplätze bis hin zu Fitnessstudios und Privatkinos. Jeder Zusatz erhöht die Gesamtkosten der Yacht erheblich. Darüber hinaus müssen auch die Wartungs- und Betriebskosten wie Treibstoff, Besatzung und Wartung berücksichtigt werden.

Wartung und Betriebskosten

Schließlich ist es unerlässlich, die fortlaufenden Kosten zu berücksichtigen, die mit dem Besitz einer 30-Meter-Jacht verbunden sind. Wartung, Versicherung, Treibstoff, Liegegebühren und Gehälter für die Besatzung sind unumgängliche Bestandteile. Die jährlichen Betriebskosten einer Yacht dieser Größe können je nach Häufigkeit der Nutzung und Lage des Liegeplatzes stark variieren.

Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass es aufgrund der vielen Faktoren, die eine Rolle spielen, schwierig ist, eine genaue Antwort auf die Frage „Was kostet eine 30-Meter-Jacht?“ zu geben. In der Regel ist mit einem Startpreis von mindestens mehreren Millionen Euro zu rechnen, wobei es je nach Spezifikation erhebliche Abweichungen geben kann. Für diejenigen, die das Geld und die Leidenschaft für das Segeln haben, kann die Investition in eine Yacht dieser Größe ein unvergleichliches Erlebnis auf den Meeren und Ozeanen der Welt bieten. Es ist jedoch wichtig, sich über die Kosten im Klaren zu sein, die mit dem Besitz eines solchen Schiffes verbunden sind, bevor man sich auf dieses luxuriöse Abenteuer einlässt.

Was kostet die Miete einer Yacht?

Fühlen Sie sich von der enormen Weite des unermesslichen Ozeans angezogen? Vielleicht sehnen Sie sich danach, die Kühle des tiefblauen Wassers auf Ihrer Haut zu spüren, die frische Seeluft tief einzuatmen, während Sie in die endlose Ferne blicken und nur vom sanften Geräusch der Wellen begleitet werden. Vielleicht sind es diese unwiderstehlichen Träume, die viele von uns dazu veranlassen, die Kosten für das Mieten einer Yacht zu erforschen, dieses maritime Wunderwerk, das uns in eine andere Welt entführt, wo der Alltag zurückgelassen wird und der Ozean der einzige Wegweiser ist.

Im Pantheon der Seefahrtspracht ist die Yacht der unbestrittene König. Die Yacht ist nicht nur ein Seefahrzeug, sondern ein Sinnbild für Prestige, Freiheit und den unstillbaren Durst des Menschen nach Abenteuer und Entdeckung. Sie sind die modernen Pferde der See, der Bug gestreckt in den Wind, bereit, die glitzernden Wellen zu zähmen und die unbekannten Wunder des Ozeans zu erkunden.

Aber wie viel kostet es, diese Symbole des Luxus zu mieten? Die Antwort hängt von einer Vielzahl von Faktoren ab: der Größe und Klasse der Yacht, den Zusatzleistungen und natürlich dem Reiseziel.

Die Klasse macht den Unterschied: Verschiedene Arten von Yachten

Zunächst müssen wir die Vielfalt der Yachten anerkennen. Von der bescheidenen Motor- oder Segelyacht, die genug Platz für eine kleine Familie bietet, bis hin zur Superyacht, die wie ein schwimmendes Luxusresort ausgestattet ist und Platz für Dutzende von Gästen bietet, reicht die Palette. Diese Unterschiede haben einen entscheidenden Einfluss auf die Kosten. So kann eine kleinere Yacht bereits für wenige tausend Euro pro Woche gemietet werden, während eine Superyacht leicht Millionen kosten kann.

Zusatzleistungen und Reiseziel

Doch die Yacht selbst ist nur ein Teil der Gleichung. Viele zusätzliche Dienstleistungen wie eine professionelle Crew, ein persönlicher Koch oder Luxus-Ausstattungen können die Kosten erheblich erhöhen. Darüber hinaus spielt das Reiseziel eine wichtige Rolle. Das Mittelmeer im Sommer ist ein Hotspot für Yacht-Enthusiasten und kann daher kostspieliger sein als weniger gefragte Orte oder Zeiten.

Ein Blick auf die Zahlen: Mietkosten einer Yacht

Lassen Sie uns nun konkreter werden. Eine Segelyacht kann man für ein Wochenende bereits ab 1.000 bis 3.000 Euro mieten, während größere Luxusmodelle zwischen 10.000 und 15.000 Euro pro Woche kosten können. Eine voll ausgestattete Superyacht kann jedoch leicht auf 150.000 bis 250.000 Euro pro Woche kommen. Bedenken Sie dabei, dass dies nur die Miete der Yacht selbst ist und noch keine zusätzlichen Kosten wie Treibstoff, Verpflegung, Liegegebühren und eventuell anfallende Versicherungsgebühren beinhaltet.

Auf dem Pfad der konkreten Zahlen: Beispiele für Yacht-Preise

Dann lassen Sie uns tiefer in die Materie eintauchen und konkrete Beispiele betrachten, um eine greifbare Vorstellung von den Kosten für das Mieten einer Yacht zu bekommen.

🚢 Der Ruf des Mittelmeers: Monaco

Beginnen wir mit Monaco, einem glitzernden Juwel an der Côte d'Azur, bekannt für seinen Luxus und seine Extravaganz. Hier könnten Sie beispielsweise eine 20 Meter lange Luxus-Motoryacht für eine Woche für rund 20.000 bis 25.000 Euro mieten. Dieser Preis beinhaltet normalerweise eine Crew, aber nicht den Treibstoff oder andere Ausgaben wie Hafengebühren und Verpflegung.

Wenn Sie jedoch nach etwas Größerem suchen, könnte eine 50 Meter lange Superyacht eher Ihrem Geschmack entsprechen. Diese kann jedoch leicht über 200.000 Euro pro Woche kosten, und das noch vor Berücksichtigung der zusätzlichen Kosten wie Treibstoff, Verpflegung und Hafengebühren.

🚢 Die Magie des karibischen Paradieses: St. Barts

Wechseln wir die Szenerie und lassen uns in der warmen Sonne der Karibik nieder. St. Barts, mit seinen weißen Sandstränden und kristallklarem Wasser, ist ein beliebtes Ziel für Yacht-Enthusiasten. Hier könnte eine kleinere, etwa 20 Meter lange Segelyacht, die perfekt für eine Familie oder eine kleine Gruppe von Freunden geeignet ist, etwa 10.000 bis 15.000 Euro pro Woche kosten.

Wenn Sie jedoch den Wind mit etwas mehr Stil in den Segeln spüren möchten, könnte eine luxuriösere 40-Meter-Segelyacht mit Vollausstattung eine passende Wahl sein. Solch ein maritimes Meisterwerk kann jedoch bis zu 50.000 Euro pro Woche kosten, und das noch vor Berücksichtigung der zusätzlichen Kosten.

🚢 Im Herzen der Antike: Griechenland

Abschließend reisen wir in die Wiege der westlichen Zivilisation, nach Griechenland, mit seinen unzähligen Inseln und atemberaubenden Küstenlandschaften. Hier könnten Sie eine gemütliche 15-Meter-Segelyacht für etwa 3.000 bis 5.000 Euro pro Woche mieten, eine ideale Option für eine entspannte Erkundung der Ägäis.

Wenn Sie jedoch den luxuriöseren Weg gehen möchten, könnte eine 30 Meter lange Motoryacht mit Vollausstattung für etwa 40.000 bis 50.000 Euro pro Woche gemietet werden. Auch hier müssen zusätzliche Kosten berücksichtigt werden.

Diese Beispiele geben Ihnen hoffentlich einen klareren Eindruck von den Kosten, die mit dem Mieten einer Yacht verbunden sind. Bedenken Sie jedoch, dass die Preise stark variieren können und es immer am besten ist, vor Ihrer Reise gründlich zu recherchieren und Angebote zu vergleichen.

Der Zusatzkosten-Faktor: Treibstoff, Verpflegung und Liegegebühren

Der Treibstoffverbrauch hängt stark von der Größe und dem Typ der Yacht ab. Bei einer kleineren Yacht können Sie mit Kosten von einigen Hundert Euro pro Woche rechnen, bei einer Superyacht kann der Betrag jedoch schnell auf mehrere zehntausend Euro ansteigen. Die Verpflegungskosten hängen von der Qualität und Quantität der Speisen und Getränke ab, die Sie wünschen, können aber ebenfalls schnell in die Tausende gehen. Liegegebühren variieren stark je nach Hafen und Saison und können von einigen zehn Euro pro Nacht bis zu mehreren Tausend Euro in hochklassigen Marinas reichen.

Jenseits der Zahlen: Der verborgene Wert einer Yacht

Um den Wert einer Yacht wirklich zu schätzen, müssen wir über die nackten Zahlen hinausgehen. Es geht darum, was es uns ermöglicht, zu tun und zu sein. Es handelt sich um den privilegierten Zugang zu einigen der schönsten und unzugänglichsten Orte der Welt. Es ermöglicht uns, von der Küste Südfrankreichs zu den idyllischen Inseln Griechenlands zu segeln, von der faszinierenden Küste Norwegens zu den unberührten Buchten der Karibik. Mit einer Yacht haben Sie das Zepter in der Hand und das Ruder unter Ihren Füßen. Sie können dahin navigieren, wo Ihr Herz Sie hinführt.

Die unbekannten Freuden: Leben auf einer Yacht

Das Leben auf einer Yacht bringt Freuden mit sich, die auf dem Land schwer zu finden sind. Die frühmorgendliche Stille, wenn die ersten Strahlen der Sonne das Deck berühren, und das sanfte Wiegen der Yacht Sie in einen Zustand tiefer Ruhe versetzt. Die freudige Erregung, wenn ein Schwarm Delfine plötzlich neben Ihrer Yacht auftaucht und fröhlich in den Wellen spielt. Die Gelassenheit, die sich einstellt, wenn man unter dem unendlichen Sternenhimmel sitzt, das sanfte Plätschern der Wellen als einziges Geräusch in der Dunkelheit. Dies sind Momente, die kein Geld der Welt kaufen kann, und dennoch sind sie ein integraler Bestandteil des Yachtlebens.

Die verborgenen Kosten: Umweltbewusstsein

Während wir über die Kosten der Yacht sprechen, dürfen wir nicht vergessen, dass es auch verborgene Kosten gibt, die nicht direkt in Euro und Cent gemessen werden können. Ich spreche von der Umweltkosten. Die Ozeane sind eine Quelle unermesslicher Schönheit und Lebenskraft, aber sie sind auch empfindlich und in Gefahr. Jede Yachtfahrt hat ihren Preis in Form von CO2-Emissionen und potenziellen Schäden an den marinen Ökosystemen.

Glücklicherweise nimmt das Bewusstsein für umweltfreundlichere Yachten zu. Hybridantriebssysteme, verbesserte Rumpfdesigns für effizienteren Kraftstoffverbrauch, und nachhaltigere Materialien sind nur einige der Innovationen, die die Yachtindustrie verändert haben. Es ist eine Erinnerung daran, dass wir, während wir die Freiheit der Ozeane genießen, auch die Verantwortung haben, diese zu schützen.

Die Kosten für das Mieten einer Yacht können stark variieren, abhängig von der Größe und dem Typ der Yacht, dem Reiseziel und den zusätzlichen Dienstleistungen, die Sie wünschen. Aber der wahre Wert einer Yacht ist mehr als nur ihre Mietkosten. Sie ermöglicht uns, die Welt aus einer anderen Perspektive zu erleben, uns in die Magie und Mysterien der Ozeane einzutauchen und die Fesseln des Alltags zu sprengen. Gleichzeitig birgt sie die Verantwortung, die Schönheit und Zerbrechlichkeit unserer Ozeane zu schützen und zu bewahren. In diesem Sinne ist die Yacht weit mehr als nur ein Seefahrzeug. Sie ist ein Symbol für Freiheit, Abenteuer und Respekt gegenüber der Natur.

How much does it cost to own a yacht?

By Rob Bowman | Posted On Oct 28, 2019 Updated On Apr 16, 2024

Since we opened our doors in 2002, United Yacht Sales has worked with thousands of boaters who hold aspirations of owning a yacht. A yacht can mean different things to different people, especially when discussing the difference between intended use such as fishing, day boating, entertaining, and long-distance cruising. Just as there are many applications for how you plan to use your boat, there are also many boat builders working to design the perfect yacht to meet a specific niche in the marketplace. With nearly 1,000 transactions completed each year, United brokers commonly hear the same questions asked as new boaters begin their research into finding the perfect vessel. The yacht's purchase cost isn't the only expense though and other factors need to be considered.

What does it cost to own a yacht? "The cost of ownership for a 60-foot, $1 million yacht is going to be about 10% of its value, or $100,000 per year if it's over ten years old," said Peter Schmidt , Founder of United Yacht Sales. "You can pretty well estimate that for a later model boat of this size, in the Florida market, your general costs are going to be in that range. This would include things like routine maintenance, repairs, dockage, additional supplies, and the cost of either a professional captain or a yacht manager. If it's a newer boat, the annual costs will be less, however preventative maintenance is still very important."

If you're new to boating and this is your first yacht purchase, it makes sense to discuss these questions with your yacht broker:

• Where do you plan to keep your yacht?
• Are you going to run the boat yourself or will you need a captain?

How much does it cost to maintain a yacht?

• How much does it cost to fuel your yacht?
• Is buying a yacht a good investment?

The answers to these questions vary with many factors influencing the cost of each. Simply the location of where you plan to keep and use your yacht can raise or lower your monthly spend to keep your boat maintained in the best possible condition.

( Seen below: The below 2009 Viking 50 is an example of a sportfishing boat recently sold for approximately $1 million. Boat prices have continued to increase since 2020 and are just now beginning to stabilize. )

How much does it cost to store a yacht at a marina?

One of the first and most important questions to answer before you buy a yacht revolves around storage. If you own a water-front home with a dock big enough to safely store your yacht, the savings are substantial. However, if you plan on keeping your vessel at a marina, those costs need to be included in your annual budget. United Yacht broker Christopher Cooke  owns his own yacht management company and often helps his clients find a space at a marina. "The cost of keeping your yacht at a marina really varies by location," said Chris. "You are charged per foot, but that cost can change not only depending on what county you're in, but also how many amenities are at the marina."

"In Florida, the marinas in Martin County for example, can be half the cost of Miami-Dade," continued Christopher. "It really all depends on your boating plans, where you live, and how far you're willing to travel to be at your boat."

Sailfish Marina of Stuart is a popular yacht storage facility in Martin county that is the closest marina to the St. Lucie Inlet also with accommodations for a 60-foot and over boat. There is a fuel dock at the marina as well as a tackle shop.  If you purchase a slip for a full year on an annual contract, the cost is $20-$22 per foot of your "Length Overall" . This is important, because while some boats might be called a "60", they may very well be 62 feet in length and cost more. Additionally, if you want electricity, water, and waste removal, it can cost you an extra $175 per month for one 50amp line.

Just 40 miles to the south, in the heart of Palm Beach County, sits Palm Harbor Marina. With over 200 slips, some of which can accommodate a 250-foot superyacht and state-of-the-art Marinetek concrete floating docks, the cost is much higher. Using the same example of a 60-foot cruising yacht, the cost of storage is approximately $5,760 per month, along with a $500 per month utilities fee. "With a place like Palm Harbor Marina, boaters are paying for the amenities and the location," continued Chris. Palm Harbor Marina features a yacht club with a hospitality bar and media center, a complete fitness center, game room, deli, concierge, as well as being right next to the best restaurants and nightlife in Palm Beach.

(Seen below: A yacht is welcomed by the professional staff that includes golf cart service. Photo credit: Palm Harbor Marina website.)

"For a yacht that's 60-feet, later model year, and with average usage, you can expect to pay $60,000 per year in preventative maintenance costs ," said Cooke. "And by average use I mean 150-200 hours per year. But that's assuming nothing goes wrong and has to be replaced. Typically you're looking at $4 per foot to have someone dive it, another $4 per foot to have it washed regularly, and then another $1,000 or so to go through and do a full systems check. These costs can definitely vary though depending on the boat and location. Because of inflation with the price of materials and labor, these costs have really gone up over the last 2 years." 

The best advice Christopher has for boat owners of this size is to hire a yacht management company. Yacht Management companies often oversee anywhere from 10 to 50 boats at any one time, Christopher currently has 30. The yacht manager will ensure the boat is clean, all systems checked like transmission and generators, the running gear checked, oil changes are done, and that nothing is starting to fail. Preventative maintenance can save thousands of dollars in the long run of yacht ownership and will end up paying for itself. Many yacht owners have work or other hobbies that take their time away from being able to devote to the proper maintaining of their vessel. The result can be negligence in the upkeep of the boat, causing systems to fail, and end in more costly repair bills. If you're going to spend the money on a nice yacht, a yacht management company is a smart choice.

How much does it cost to insure a yacht?

Joshua Giordano of Global Marine Insurance Agency is no stranger to insuring boats from New York to Florida. In fact, In fact, with over 20 years in the marine industry Joshua offers a unique understanding of marine insurance as it pertains to personal watercraft, boats, and yachts. This knowledge and experience allows him to find the best boat & yacht insurance at the best price.

"We get asked all of the time how much it costs to insure a yacht and the answer is it really depends on where you live and keep the yacht," says Joshua. "For a 60-foot yacht in the Northeast, you're looking at between $6,000 and $8,000 per year for insurance. Come down to Florida and that same boat is going to be $10,000 to $12,000 to insure assuming it's for private use only. If you plan to put your vessel into a yacht charter program in Florida, then costs go up $14,000 per year."

(Seen below: A 62' Azimut Yacht in Florida, if kept at a marina, will likely cost about $10,000 per year in insurance.)

How much does it cost to fill a yacht with fuel?

Trying to budget your annual expense for fuel can be difficult. Not only do some yachts have larger fuel capacities, but their fuel burn and range can also vary. This also then dependent upon how much you use your boat and how hard you will be running the engines. Cruising at lower rpm's at around an 8-10 knot speed can mean better fuel efficiency with longer running times between trips to get more fuel.

Assuming your 60-foot yacht has a fuel capacity 1,200 gallons and with an average fuel price of $5.50, and it will cost $6,600 to fill up. For new boaters, it's really difficult to gauge how much fuel you might use in a year and only personal experience and time on the water can help narrow down that annual cost.

Fuel costs per location also can change depending on where you are boating. The Waterway Guide offers up-to-date pricing on fuel at major marinas through the United States. For example, diesel fuel in Jacksonville, Florida is currently ranging from $5.40 to $5.90 depending on which marina you stop at. In comparison, stopping for diesel in the Florida Keys will start at $4.90 and could be as high as $5.30 per gallon.

Can you finance a yacht?

Finacing a yacht is very common," says Shana White with OceanPoint Marine Lending. "There are many attractive programs out there that can be tailored to fit the bueyer's needs. The boat loan approval process usually takes between 24 and 48 hours to receive an answer." Things like your income-to-debt ratio, credit score, credit history, and asset verification all go into whether or not a bank will loan you the money for a yacht. A favorable rate for a yacht loan could be 4% in the current market with other possible discounts available. Check out our Boat Loan FAQ's page for more information.

How Much Should I Pay For A Yacht?

Owning a yacht is an investment in yourself, not a financial one. Boats depreciate in value, they cost money to maintain, and you will almost never sell it for more than what you paid for it. The memories you create with your friends and family on a yacht, however, are worth more than words can describe.  Peter Schmidt talks about why to own a yacht after more than 40 years in the business, "Owning a yacht is a good thing, one of the joys of life. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. A yacht allows you to make memories you never dreamed possible!" Peter is also a current boat owner and has owned several throughout his life. His kids now own their boats and are teaching Peter's grandchildren the joys of being on the water. "I love boating and my kids love boating. It gets in your blood and gets passed down through the generations. There simply is no greater pastime than owning a boat. Yes, there are some inconveniences along the way with repairs, but the good far outweighs any temporary inconveniences." 

Peter suggests "speaking to a knowledgeable, professional, and experienced yacht broker near you about the costs of yacht ownership. If you don't have a relationship currently with a United Yacht broker, please give our main office a call at (772) 463-3131 and we will connect you with the best broker to service you based on your location and boating needs.

Was kostet eine neue Yacht?

Die bestimmt am häufigsten in Kundengesprächen gestellte Frage lautet "Was kostet so eine Yacht?" . Die ebenso korrekte wie auch unbefriedigende Antwort wäre nun "Es kommt ganz darauf an" .

Etwas genauer wollen Sie es nun doch wissen, und daher plaudern wir ein wenig aus dem Nähkästchen. Was passiert mit Ihrem Geld, wenn Sie damit zu einer Werft gehen und eine Yacht bestellen? Und wir werden den typischen Serienbau mit dem Bau einer ganz individuellen Yacht vergleichen. Sie werden überrascht sein. Natürlich sind das hier nur Durchschnittswerte und jede Werft arbeitet nach anderen Verfahren und hat andere Kostenstrukturen. Aber das Prinzip ist überall vergleichbar, auch wenn sich die Prozente ein wenig verschieben werden.

Wir kaufen eine Serienyacht

In unserem Beispielszenario verfügen Sie über ein Budget von 1 Mio. Euro. Diesen Koffer voller Geld möchten Sie nun in eine schöne Yacht investieren. Glückwunsch, das war schonmal die richtige Entscheidung. 

Zuerst gehen Sie mit Ihrem Koffer zu einer typischen Serienwerft. Sie werden üblicherweise einen Vertriebspartner kontaktieren. Oder falls Sie die Werft direkt anschreiben, wird Ihre Anfrage an den zuständigen Vertriebspartner weitergeleitet. Der Händler zeigt Ihnen das Boot, bespricht mit Ihnen die Ausstattung und schließt am Ende den Vertrag ab. Sie kaufen also nicht von der Werft, sondern vom Händler. Das läßt er sich gut bezahlen, von Ihrem Budget bleiben gleich mal 200.000 Euro beim Händler liegen.

Im Kaufvertrag sitzt auch das Finanzamt mit am Tisch und hält die Hand auf. Mit satten 160.000 Euro Mehrwertsteuer macht sich der nette Finanzbeamte von dannen, nicht ohne vorher ein wenig kritisch auf den Koffer voller Geld zu schielen.

Sie hingegen gucken ein wenig skeptisch, denn der Koffer wird zunehmend leichter, obwohl die Yacht bislang nur auf dem Papier existiert. Wortgewandt nimmt Ihnen der Händler auch das restliche Geld ab und erzählt so etwas wie "... ist in guten Händen".

Bald darauf liegt Ihr Geldstapel im schicken Konferenzraum der Werft und rund um den Tisch sitzen die Abteilungsleiter und reden alle durcheinander auf den Werftchef ein. 

Der Marketingchef schnappt sich schnell 40.000 Euro und meint "Mon dieu, wir haben ein paar Messen zu bezahlen und die vielen Anzeigen in den Magazinen gibt es auch nicht umsonst". 

Der Verwaltungschef schnappt nach Luft. "Glaubst du vielleicht, dieses neue Bürogebäude ist umsonst? Oder die Produktionshallen mit den ganzen Maschinen?" und verläßt den Raum mit 100.000 Euro für Betriebskosten.

Der Einkaufsleiter zählt für sich 150.000 Euro ab. Davon wird er die Ausrüstung der Yacht kaufen: Motoren, Rigg, Winschen und 1000 andere Sachen. Er zwinkert dem Werftchef zu "Natürlich brauchen wir nicht soviel Geld, wir kaufen zu Werftpreisen ein und stellen dem Kunden die Listenpreise in Rechnung.

Der Produktionsleiter guckt zusammen mit dem Werftchef auf den erheblich geschrumpften Geldstapel. "Soll ich davon jetzt das Boot bauen? Mal schauen, was sich machen läßt" und verläßt mit 300.000 Euro den Raum.

Seufzend nimmt sich der Werftchef die restlichen 50.000 Euro an sich. Ein wenig mehr hätte er schon erwartet.

Zugegeben, das ist jetzt ein wenig provokativ formuliert, aber letztendlich ist es Ihr Geld, dass eine Werft am Laufen hält und alle Ausgaben deckt. Sicherlich bekommen Sie von einer großen Werft einen tollen Service und sitzen in einem schicken Konferenzraum und eine hübsche Sekretärin serviert einen Cappuccino. Aber immer daran denken: alles wird von Ihrem Geld bezahlt.

Nur ein kleiner Teil Ihres Budgets steht für den Bau der Yacht zur Verfügung. Als Diagramm sieht das dann so aus:

Wir lassen uns eine Individualyacht bauen

Der Traum eines jeden Seglers auf Langfahrt ist natürlich eine Yacht, die ganz nach seinen Wünschen gebaut wurde - am besten noch aus Aluminium. Leider wird dieser Wunsch oft mit den Eigenschaften "unbezahlbar" oder "unendlich teuer" in Verbindung gebracht. Genau das wollten wir ändern.

Der Yachtbau ist eine sehr traditionelle Branche, Innovationen werden oft als bedrohlich empfunden. Wir hingegen sehen es als Chance. Also haben wir die Bauprozesse gründlich analysiert und ausgemistet. Alles, was nicht dem eigentlichen Zweck dient, wurde entsorgt. Unser Ziel war es, einen möglichst großen Anteil Ihres Budgets in den Bau Ihrer Yacht fließen zu lassen. Die obige Analyse zeigt ja deutlich, dass hier sehr viel Luft ist.

Das fängt damit an, dass wir nicht eine teure Vertriebsstruktur über Fachhändler aufbauen, sondern nur direkt an den Eigner verkaufen. Wir arbeiten auch nicht mit großen Werften, die immer einen hohen Betriebskostenanteil in ihrer Preiskalkulation haben müssen. Wir suchen uns spezialisierte Familienbetriebe als Partner, die eine sehr hohe Qualität bieten, aber eben keinen Overhead an Kosten mit sich herumschleppen. Da wird die Buchhaltung abends am Küchentisch erledigt und die Homepage wurde seit 10 Jahren nicht upgedatet. Wunderbar, der ideale Partner für so ein Projekt. Da fließt kein Geld in Marketing oder Verwaltung.

Gleichzeitig profitiert der Kunde in vollem Umfang von unseren günstigen Einkaufspreisen als Werft. Die Kosten berechnen wir ohne Aufschlag an den Kunden weiter. Bei einem üblichen Yachtprojekt kann so schnell ein hoher fünfstelliger Betrag zusammenkommen. 

Diese Einsparungen decken meist unsere Kosten für das Projektmanagement  vollständig ab. Die Leistungen haben wir an anderer Stelle schon detailliert beschrieben ( Link ). Wir kümmern uns um sämtliche Details vor Ort und liefern Ihnen die Yacht schlüsselfertig an den Steg - ganz wie bei einer großen Werft, nur eben ohne unnötige Kosten.

Dadurch fließt ein viel größerer Anteil Ihres Budget direkt in die Technik Ihrer Yacht. Als Diagramm sieht das dann so aus:

Und was ist mit der Mehrwertsteuer?

Aufmerksamen Lesern ist aufgefallen, dass wir die Mehrwertsteuer unterschlagen haben. Aus gutem Grund. Während typische GFK-Serienyachten meist von Privatpersonen gekauft werden (falls sie nicht als Charterboote Verwendung finden) und damit der Mehrwertsteuer unterliegen, so zeigt sich bei individuellen Aluminiumyachten ein gänzlich anderes Bild.

Die Kunden und zukünftigen Eigner haben meist spezielle Pläne für Ihre Yacht, die weit über Urlaubstörns hinausgehen. Einige verwenden sie als schwimmendes Büro, andere für Expeditionen oder für die Meeres- und Klimaforschung. Die Yachten werden deshalb über eine GmbH gekauft und die Mehrwertsteuer ist nur ein durchlaufender Posten. Ob das im Einzelfall möglich ist, entscheidet letztendlich der nette Finanzbeamte. Aber da wir das nun schon öfters durchgespielt haben und sich die Konzepte in mehreren Betriebsprüfungen bewährt haben, trauen wir uns eine realistische Einschätzung der Machbarkeit durchaus zu.

Aber was kostet es nun?

Mit diesem Konzept können wir nun eine ganz individuelle Aluminiumyacht etwa zu den Kosten einer üblichen "Premium-Serienyacht" bauen. Das sind hochwertige GFK-Yachten von Werften wie Hallberg-Rassy, Swan, Contest, Discovery und anderen.

Als (sehr) grobe Richtlinie kann man von einem Netto-Budget ab 750.000 EUR für 40-45 Fuss und ab 1,3 Mio. EUR für 50-55 Fuss ausgehen - immer segelfertig ausgerüstet. Lange Optionslisten gibt es bei uns nicht. Aber natürlich können die Preise sehr stark variieren, wenn individuelle Ausstattungswünsche wie Carbonmast, elektrische Winschen und Furler, elektrische Davits, etc. berücksichtigt werden. Die Möglichkeiten sind hier endlos, daher sind alle Angaben vorbehaltlich einer detaillierten Preiskalkulation.

Stand 2023 muss man noch ergänzen, dass es nun seit 2 Jahren hohe Preissteigerungen gibt und Material oft knapp ist. Eine seriöse Kalkulation, die sich ja über die Bauzeit von 1-2 Jahren erstrecken müßte, ist so kaum möglich. Mit dieser Unsicherheit werden die Eigner leben müssen, zumindest bis es sich wieder normalisiert hat.
