The Future of the Global Yachting Market in 2024

  • March 20, 2024

The global yachting market has grown steadily over the past decade, driven by rising affluence and the increasing popularity of yachting as a leisure activity. Yachting refers to recreational boats and ships, ranging from small sailboats to large motor yachts. It is a popular activity among high-net-worth individuals, allowing them to cruise for leisure, recreation, and entertainment.

The yachting market comprises selling and maintaining yachts, along with ancillary services like charters, marinas, and yacht tourism. Key customer segments include wealthy individuals, charter companies, and hotels/resorts. Geographically, Europe has traditionally been the largest market, though North America and Asia Pacific are quickly gaining ground.

The yachting industry was valued at around $35 billion in 2019, having grown at a CAGR of 4.2% over the past five years. Further growth is expected, driven by rising disposable incomes, increasing tourism, and yacht design/technology innovations. However, the market faces challenges such as high ownership costs, environmental regulations, and the availability of marinas. Overall, promising opportunities exist for yacht manufacturers, charter companies, and service providers targeting the high-end consumer segment.

Key Market Segments

The global yachting market can be segmented into two main categories: luxury and mainstream yachts.

Luxury Yachts

The luxury yacht segment comprises high-end yachts, typically 80 feet or longer. These include motor yachts, sailing yachts, and superyachts. Luxury yachts are characterized by their large size, opulent amenities, high performance, and premium quality. They are built by leading yacht builders using the finest materials and customized to owner specifications. The luxury yacht market has witnessed steady growth in recent years, driven by high-net-worth individuals. Critical markets for luxury yachts include North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific.

Mainstream Yachts

In contrast to luxury yachts, mainstream yachts cater to middle-class boat buyers. They include smaller motorboats and sailboats less than 80 feet in length. Mainstream yacht types include bowriders, cuddy cabins, center console boats, express cruisers, and daysailers. These affordable yachts offer practical boating at lower price points. Mainstream yachts target a mass market and are produced by high-volume manufacturers. Key demand comes from marine tourism, recreational boating, and fishing activities.

Demand Drivers

Several key factors are fueling growth in the global yachting market:

  • Wealth Demographics

The yachting industry is driven by high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) with over  $1 million  in investable assets. Their numbers have steadily risen over the past decade, especially in Asia and the Middle East. This expanding pool of wealthy consumers is driving yacht sales globally. Market analysts point to economic growth in China, in particular, as a significant contributor, with over 1 million new millionaires created there in just the past five years.

  • Tourism Industry Trends

The rise of experiential luxury travel and tourism is also fueling the yachting industry’s growth. Cruising exotic destinations on a private yacht appeals to HNWIs seeking exclusive and customized travel adventures. Yachting enables access to secluded beaches, islands, and coastlines that even luxury resorts cannot provide. As tourism rebounds post-pandemic, the appeal of private yachts for luxury travel will likely accelerate.

  • Coastal Infrastructure Development

Several countries invest heavily in maritime infrastructure like ports, marinas, and facilities to attract more yachting tourism. The Mediterranean remains the epicenter of yachting, with countries like Monaco, France, and Croatia building state-of-the-art marinas to cater to larger private yachts. Emerging yachting destinations in Asia and the Middle East also prioritize development along their coasts to tap into this lucrative tourism segment. This infrastructure enables further growth of the global yachting fleet and cruising destinations.

Regional Trends

The global yachting market is seeing diverging trends across regions. Mature markets like Europe and North America dominate in total market size, while rapid growth occurs across Asia Pacific.

– Europe accounts for over 50% of the global yachting market, with the Mediterranean region being the focal point of yacht tourism and purchases. Countries like Italy, France, and Spain lead the yacht manufacturing industry.

– Demand also remains strong in Northern Europe, especially amongst ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Brokerage sales have been robust in the UK in particular.

– Emerging markets in Eastern Europe are also contributing to growth. Croatia and Montenegro have invested heavily in yachting infrastructure, incentivizing foreign yacht purchases.

  • North America

– The US drives yachting demand in North America, accounting for over 85% of the regional market size. Florida and the Northeast remain prime boating locations.

– Canada and Mexico represent smaller but fast-growing markets. Vancouver and Toronto are emerging yachting hubs in Canada.

  • Asia Pacific

– China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand have seen a surge in yacht purchases and infrastructure development. Tax incentives in Thailand have made the country an attractive destination.

– Strong economic growth in India, Indonesia, and Malaysia indicates significant emerging opportunities. However, regulative challenges remain for foreign yacht imports across the region.

– Australia and New Zealand have mature yachting cultures akin to Europe. They serve as entry points to broader Asia Pacific growth.

Technological Innovations

In recent years, the global yachting market has seen significant technological innovations transforming yacht ownership and the charter experience. Some of the key innovations include:

Electric Propulsion Systems

Electric propulsion systems are gaining popularity in the yachting industry. These quiet and emission-free systems are ideal for short-range cruising using electric motors powered by high-capacity lithium-ion battery banks. While range and power output limitations remain, electric systems are improving quickly. Leading manufacturers like Torqeedo offer hybrid electric systems that combine diesel engines with electric motors.

Fully electric yachts, like the 88-foot Vision concept from Swedish company Candela, are also emerging. This hydrofoil craft can hit speeds over 30 knots, with only the hum of the two 250 kW motors breaking the silence. As battery densities improve, electric propulsion will empower greener, quieter yachts.

Digital Navigation

Modern yachts are adopting sophisticated digital navigation systems for route planning, weather routing, and automatic anchoring. Chart plotters like the Garmin GPSMAP series integrate sonar, radar, and entertainment controls. Advanced autopilots like the Raymarine Evolution maintain set courses without human intervention.

Digital navigation streamlines previously manual tasks for the captain and crew. Touchscreen interfaces provide intuitive control alongside automation to improve safety, efficiency, and the overall onboard experience. Integrated systems allow yachts to be operated more precisely, regardless of conditions.

Digital navigation

Entertainment Systems

Entertainment and connectivity onboard luxury yachts have substantially improved through new sound, video, lighting, and internet systems. Many now feature advanced home theater setups with 4K projectors, surround sound, and streaming services via maritime satellite internet. Others have integrated audio systems controlling music across decks.

Networked lighting systems like Savant create custom mood lighting scenes. Internet connectivity lets guests stream movies and music from their devices anywhere onboard. These cutting-edge systems transform yachts into impeccable entertainment hubs for owners and charter clients.

Sustainability

In recent years, the yachting industry has made strides to operate and build yachts more sustainably. This has been driven by consumer demand for more eco-friendly vessels and tightening environmental regulations.

Energy efficiency has become a significant focus, with newer yacht models integrating features like solar panels, hybrid propulsion systems, and lightweight hull materials. Solar panels can supplement the yacht’s power supply, reducing the need to run diesel generators. Hybrid propulsion combines diesel engines with electric motors, resulting in fuel savings. Advanced lightweight hull composites like carbon fiber require less energy to propel.

Yacht builders also use more sustainable materials like recycled teak or bamboo to reduce deforestation. Eco-friendly paints and coatings are being used that have lower emissions and biodegradability. Even interiors are designed sustainably, using renewable materials and avoiding toxic chemicals.

At a regulatory level, maritime emission rules set by organizations like the IMO are forcing the industry to transition to cleaner fuels. The US and EU have also set standards limiting VOC emissions from paints and coatings. These measures have pushed yacht builders to implement new technologies and processes to meet compliance.

Looking ahead, sustainability will continue to shape the superyacht market. Consumer interest and environmental regulations will drive further innovation in energy efficiency, materials, and manufacturing methods. This transition is critical for the industry to reduce its environmental impact and meet its corporate social responsibilities.

Sustainability

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in an unprecedented decline in the global yachting industry in 2020. As countries went into lockdown and imposed travel restrictions, demand for yachts plummeted.

According to industry estimates, the production of yachts above 24 meters fell by nearly 20% in 2020 compared to 2019. The demand for smaller yachts and boats also sharply declined as leisure activities were curtailed. Charter businesses were severely affected as well.

However, the yachting market has also shown signs of recovery in 2021 as pandemic restrictions ease. Many industry experts expect a rebound, with the production of larger yachts projected to recover to 2019 levels by 2022. The charter market is also likely to see an uptick.

Covid 19

Key trends aiding the recovery include:

– Pent-up demand from high-net-worth individuals looking to spend on luxury experiences and assets after a year of lockdowns. This demographic has seen its wealth increase despite the pandemic.

– Continued low-interest rates and attractive financing options are encouraging yacht purchases.

– In some countries, yachting is considered a safer vacation option than hotels and resorts. This has boosted demand for private yacht charters.

– Yachting routes and businesses are adapting to new health regulations to accommodate continued social distancing preferences among clients.

While risks remain, the yachting industry has weathered the worst effects of the pandemic and is poised for a strong recovery over the next few years.

Future Outlook

The global yachting market is projected to experience steady growth in the coming years, driven by rising affluence, demand for luxury experiences, and innovations in yacht technology and design. However, the industry also faces some challenges and uncertainties moving forward.

Continued Growth Projected

Industry experts project that the global yachting market will grow at a CAGR of around 4% from 2022 to 2024. This continued growth will be fueled by rising numbers of high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), particularly in Asia Pacific, higher consumer spending on luxury and experiences, and innovations making yachts more affordable, efficient, and customizable. Established markets like North America and Europe are expected to remain dominant while emerging markets will drive much of the new demand.

Growth

Opportunities in New Markets

Key opportunities lie in tapping into new demographics and geographic markets, for example, targeting younger HNWIs and prioritizing experiences over material goods by promoting yachting as the ultimate lifestyle experience. Emerging yachting hotspots like China, Thailand, Brazil, and the UAE will be critical new demand sources. Industry players can capture more first-time yacht buyers by using virtual/augmented reality and digital technologies to make yachting more accessible and understood.

Challenges: Regulations, Costs, Sustainability

However, the industry also faces challenges. Tighter regulations on yacht emissions, safety, taxes, and licenses could raise costs. Rising fuel prices may deter growth. The high costs of buying, maintaining, docking, and crewing a yacht put it out of reach for many. Promoting sustainability, energy efficiency, and more affordable yachting options will be vital to the industry’s continued growth.

Overall, the yachting market looks poised for steady growth but will need to innovate and tap into new markets and demographics to realize its full potential in the coming years.

Yacht Charter Market Analysis

The Yacht Charter Market is expected to register a CAGR of 5.79% during the forecast period.

The market was valued at USD 18.9 billion in 2021, and it is projected to reach USD 26.5 billion by 2027,

The market was negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Worldwide, the yacht charter industry was brought to a standstill by the pandemic. The impact was clear on the industry, as several companies confronted instabilities with their supply chain. Furthermore, the lack of skilled labor impacted the market growth. The key players are doing their best to counter the situation. Additionally, rising global participation in competitive and recreational boating activities and growing corporate tourism activities are expected to significantly support the demand of the target market.

Over the medium term, the factors such as the increasing demand for competitive and recreational boating activities, the purchasing power of people, and rising disposable income are anticipated to drive the yacht charter market during the forecast period. Seeing the potential of the market, numerous associated businesses, like yacht management, that support the construction of new yachts are also entering the market. Yacht charter companies are currently concentrating on vertical integration with major yacht manufacturers to intensify their revenue.

However, factors like high costs of yacht taxation policies and rentals in certain regions are impeding the market growth.

Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region. Rising recreational activity popularity, as evidenced by increased participation in marine recreational activities in countries such as Australia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Singapore, is expected to support regional growth.

  • Yacht Charter Market Trends

Augmentation in Fleet Size by Key Players is Propelling the Market Growth

Numerous yacht charter companies are adding new yachts to remain ahead of their competitors, as several charter companies have contracts with yacht manufacturers to ensure that the new yachts are provided to them for chartering. For instance,

  • In February 2022, Imperial Yacht announced that with the collaboration of Amels and Damen Yachting, the launch of Project AMELS 242-07 is scheduled to be delivered this summer.
  • In March 2021, Imperial Yacht announced the signing of a new 100-meter project, Project Titanium, in collaboration with The Italian Sea Group, the parent company of Admiral Yachts. Project Titanium, which is scheduled to be delivered in 2025.

With the addition of new yachts in the fleet, charter companies invested huge amounts in upgrading their fleet. For instance,

  • In May 2021, Northrop & Johnson announced closing deals, including the 120-foot (37m) Benetti motor yacht TANUSHA, two Pershing yachts LOUNOR, and AMJU, the 130-foot (39.7m) classic superyacht ARIONAS from Lürssen.

Europe and North America are Anticipated to Lead the Market

Europe is preferred as one of the top destinations for marine culture. Northern Europe has a very rich culture of yacht charters. Countries, like Germany, Sweden, England, Denmark, Scotland, Ireland, Norway, and Russia, have the existence of a variety of options to select from motor yachts, luxury yachts, and crewed yachts. Several superyachts are also available for charter along with expedition/explorer yachts. The summer season is the finest time to charter a yacht in Europe.

Correspondingly, most clients in North America selected to visit chartered destinations to avail of large discounts. In the United States, consumers are oriented toward comfort over performance. The Northern American yachting season is from May to October, whereas in South America, it runs from January to September. Florida has one of the largest gatherings of private superyachts. It has two coastal borders, one in the Atlantic and the other in the Gulf of Mexico, and it holds around 30,000 lakes.

Several countries are reforming their tax regulation and rules, which is concerning the yacht charter market. For instance, in January 2020, the French Tax Authorities released an official tax bulletin with some new rules, which will affect charter contracts signed after March 30, 2020. The VAT will be charged at a 20% rate when the yacht is sailing in EU water bodies, and there will be no VAT while sailing in international waters. If any boat is in EU waters, it is fully subjected to VAT.

As developments in the current situation are constant and fluid, one would expect that certain measures are put in place, comprising governmental and legislations directives, which would give some assurance to the industry.

The future of yachting: Yacht market trends in a post pandemic world

Home > LUXURY/UHNW Trends > The future of yachting: Yacht market trends in a post pandemic world

Posted by Joanna Lewis , 30 Jun 2022

The yachting industry has enjoyed record growth over the past couple of years. While the pandemic restricted travel initially, it created a desire for more exclusive and private holidays amongst the world’s richest. The lockdown also enhanced individuals’ willingness to seize the moment and seek freedom on the sea aboard a luxury yacht with close family and friends.

Not only has this surge in yacht sales and charters been driven by a desire to enjoy more exclusive and private experiences, but it has also been driven by an uptick in global wealth. There were 670 new billionaires in 2020 and more than 295,400 Ultra-High-Net-Worth-Individuals, according to the 2021 Wealth X Report. Additionally, historically low-interest rates have provided cheap capital, further fuelling demand for luxury goods, although this driver is set to change with rising interest rates. With this increased spending power, many of the world’s most coveted luxury brands have witnessed a boost in sales, and the yachting industry, too, has reaped the rewards.

Relevance Yacht’s partnership with YATCO , the Official MLS and Ultimate SaaS Platform of Yachting, provides us with the latest yacht market trends and post pandemc industry insights. Here we explore some of the latest yacht industry trends identified by YATCO.

Yacht market trends : sales 

Yacht sales continue to be robust. 2021 saw an astonishing 72 vessels with price increases, breaking historical records and this trend is continuing in 2022.

The most recent YATCO data – from May 2022 – shows that a total of 100 yachts were sold in this month alone, with a combined asking price of more than US$179 million. There were also 350 new brokerage yachts for sale, and 49 listings are currently under contract – a 23% increase compared to April 2022.

For comparison, looking at the same month in 2021, there were 39 yachts of 79ft+ sold with a combined asking price of more than $400 million, 102 new listings and 68 listings under contract.

“All the Relevance yacht brokerage clients have seen incredible growth in yacht sales, yacht charters, and new build contracts since 2020,” Rumble Romagnoli, President at Relevance said. “Is the world getting richer? Are people wanting to enjoy their money more? Is the marketing of high value goods more effective through digital channels? I think we have a situation where all these factors are playing their part.”  

Yacht market trends : charter 

The yacht charter market continues to experience growth. An increasing number of charter-only firms are joining YATCO to sell yachts on behalf of their clients, and prices are increasing due to demand outstripping supply.

According to BusinessWire, the global yacht charter market is estimated to be worth around US$16.1 billion this year and is expected to reach around $21.65 billion by 2027.

Post pandemic trends

The latest data from YATCO shows that expedition yachts are the most sought-after by yacht owners and charterers. This reflects an increasing trend amongst yachting enthusiasts to travel beyond the world’s most popular blue water havens and explore more remote areas.

There is also a growing influx of new yacht owners and charter clients from the tech, crypto, Non-Fungible-Tokens, and blockchain community. These clients are much younger than the traditional yacht industry audience. They are typically in their mid-20s and early 30s, are new to the world of yachting and seek trusted professionals who can provide expert advice on the entire eco-cycle of yachting, from chartering to owning a luxury vessel.

Yacht brokerages are responding to this new audience by embracing payment in crypto. For example, global yacht brokerage YACHTZOO has recently partnered with BitPay to offer payment for select yachts for sale and charter in cryptocurrency.

This younger audience is also the key driver of the yachting industry becoming greener and more eco-friendly. As such, sustainable yachts, including ones that boast state-of-the-art hybrid propulsion systems, are increasingly popular. This trend for sustainability is reflected across the entire yachting industry, including builders, brokers, and even marinas, all implementing eco-friendly initiatives.

Yacht market trends : a new digital era

Driven by Covid lockdowns, the traditional way of doing business has changed, with the past few years seeing a global rise in the number of companies investing in new websites. The yachting industry has embraced this new digital era, finding new ways of selling and chartering yachts virtually, demonstrating the importance of a robust online presence and digital marketing strategies.

An increasing number of sales are being made online via social media platforms, with inquiries for second-hand and new build yachts on popular platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

YATCO support yachting professionals digitally by providing top software solutions that deliver results.

Relevance Yacht works with some of the leading yacht industry brands helping to support them with effective digital marketing strategies. If you want to learn about our full portfolio of marketing services, then contact the team at Relevance Yacht.

KEY MARKET INSIGHTS

The global yacht charter market size was valued at USD 7.22 billion in 2022. The market is projected to grow from USD 7.59 billion in 2023 to USD 11.06 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period.

A yacht charter is a service for hiring boats for recreational and leisure purposes. Yachts can be privately owned by individuals or companies or rented for charter. Professionally crewed yachts are equipped with luxurious amenities. These yachts are chartered for corporate and leisure purposes and offer a seamless luxury experience with the highest comfort and standards. Yachts are used for sailing and fishing in some parts of the world, especially in European countries. They offer all the benefits, from great adventures to total relaxation.

OEM constantly develops high-speed and luxury feature yachts to meet the increasing demand for marine tourism and water sports activities. Yacht rental companies also offer convenient booking of charter yachts through online platforms and mobile applications. Therefore, the market is expected to become popular in the coming years.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Decrease in Yacht Charter Demand Amid COVID-19 to Hamper Market Growth

The tourism segment witnessed a decline in growth during 2020 owing to adverse effects on the global tourism industry and a decline in the number of tourists visiting tourist places. The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted the travel and tourism industry, especially the yacht charter industry, which has stalled due to the rapid spread of the virus worldwide. This pandemic has caused vast uncertainty in the industry and a panic situation for all the members of the industrial value chain involved in it as they cannot forecast the resuming of the yacht rental business. Industry players are taking steps to overcome the uncertainty created by the pandemic, including safety and precautionary measures in charter contracts. However, people were optimistic that the charter market will recover soon once the pandemic eases. In 2022, the U.S. yacht sales started normalizing after witnessing solid growth in the past two years. In 2022, consumer spending patterns changed from yachting activities to other accessible activities, travel, music concerts, and sporting events.

In Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa, the growth of yacht charter slowed down during 2020 due to uncertainties. However, the market returned to normalcy and will show strong growth over the next few years.

LATEST TRENDS

Favorable Trends Associated with Marine Tourism and Private Island Resorts to Aid Market Augmentation

Marine tourism has a positive impact on economic growth in several ways. It also earns foreign exchange and contributes to government revenue. It creates jobs and makes an essential contribution to the local economy. In addition, it provides various sociocultural benefits such as strengthening communities and promoting sustainable tourism. Many countries worldwide are developing policies to strengthen the coastal tourism sector due to climate change and environmental degradation.

The maritime policy of the European Union supports the growth of coastal tourism and marine economic activity.

  • For example, in January 2021, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) finalized the Blue Economy Strategy Plan, 2021-2025 to accelerate the growth of the American Blue Economy. This strategy focuses on five divisions, ocean exploration, tourism and recreation, maritime transport, water sports competitiveness, and coastal resilience.

India also plans to develop 78 marine tourist attractions in the coming years. Such initiatives will encourage the growth of marine tourism in the future and thus support market growth.                                         

DRIVING FACTORS 

Growing Popularity of Recreational Yachting and Marine Tourism Activities to Aid Market Expansion

The increasing disposable income of customers and the growing inclination toward marine tourism and leisure activities, such as sailing, are aiding market expansion. Recreational boating has been gaining popularity for the past few years, paving the way for yacht rental services. Moreover, advanced booking systems are permitting customers to charter yachts at the time of booking flight tickets, which is ultimately propelling the growth of the market.

Beneficial government initiatives and programs to boost marine tourism are expected to spur market growth. For example, the Indian government will develop infrastructure and services to support local tourism and port city tours to encourage cruise travel and increase maritime tourists to 1.5 million by 2030-31. The Indonesian government has also updated its maritime tourism policy by abolishing the CAIT license (Indonesian Territorial Customs Authorization). The policy predicts a significant increase in yacht visits to Indonesia, generating over USD 500 million in revenues.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High Costs of Yacht Charter to Hinder the Market Growth 

Yacht has a base rate or a weekly rate for renting it. The cost of a yacht charter depends on several factors such as the type of yacht, crew required, charter destination, local taxes, and basic costs. Therefore, there is a wide range of basic rates for charters. Additionally, charter rates range from USD 10,000 per week for smaller sailing yachts and catamarans to USD 150,000 per week for the most luxurious motor superyachts. In addition, hidden costs, such as taxes and Value-Added Tax (VAT), insurance, crew gratuities, and meal prepayments, are not mandatory but cost approximately 15-30% of the base fare and are collected before the charter.

For instance, the Bahamas announced a new tax rate of 10% VAT for all foreign-flagged charter yachts. This will be enforced on all charter contracts signed after the 1st of July 2022. This new addition to the 4% charter fee will total an additional 14% cost. It is similar to an expense account the captain can access during the charter. Such cost is a barrier to many developing countries’ customers, further restraining the yacht charter market growth.

SEGMENTATION

By contract type analysis.

Bareboat Segment to Hold a Major Market Share Due to the Privacy Offered 

Based on contract type, the market is segmented into bareboat and crewed. The bareboat segment holds the largest share of the global market in value due to various benefits such as more independence and privacy offered by bareboat compared to crewed boats . A bareboat charter is an arrangement in which an individual charters a vessel and steers the boat without other crew or services. The individual or group renting the boat from the owner is responsible for caring for the boat.

Many bareboat charter companies also offer courses to train a person in basic navigation skills and prepare for the bareboat charter. Sometimes, these companies also offer captain charters. Most chartered bareboat yachts are up to 40 meters in length. People typically rent bareboat yachts for fishing, sporting events, or sailing from one destination to another. Crewed is the fastest-growing segment. Rising demand for superyachts, increasing cruise line participation, and hybrid business models are the factors responsible for growth of this segment.

By Yacht Size Analysis

Up to 40m Segment to Capture the Largest Market Share Due to Affordability of Small Yacht Charters

Based on yacht size, the market is classified into up to 40m, 40 to 60m, and above 60m. The up to 40m segment accounts for the largest global market share. These yachts can be utilized for both personal activities in competitive and recreational boating activities purposes. The 40m charter has various advantages, including wind sailing capabilities that ensure wind direction and conserve fuel. End-users also favor yachts of up to 40m due to its affordability, low maintenance costs, fixed installation in shallow waters, and ease of use with low mooring costs.

 Rapid urbanization, rising living standards, growing personal disposable incomes, and increasing upper-class population have increased individuals' ability to spend on luxury goods and leisure activities. Therefore, the yacht services market has also seen a significant increase in demand in recent years. Observed trends in yacht construction indicate that the average length of yachts is increasing by 3 cm each year. This is owing to the rising demand for superyachts and mega yachts in most developed countries and the overall surge in tourism in these regions. Therefore, the 40-60m segment is expected to grow significantly, while the above 60m segment exhibited the fastest growth rate during the forecast period.

By Yacht Type Analysis

Motor Yacht Segment Dominates the Market Owing to Demand for Recreational Activities

The market is segmented based on yacht type into motor yacht, sailing yacht, and others.

The motor yacht segment holds the largest share globally and is expected to retain its leading position in the market during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the growing demand for motor yachts for personal and recreational activities in various countries worldwide. Motor yachts offer several advantages such as enhanced speed, power, and the ability to cover longer distances in less time. Moreover, motor yachts can be sailed in shallow water, allowing customers to navigate almost all coastlines and narrow and shallow creeks. Furthermore, increasing sporting activities, boating events, and tournaments create high demand for motor yachts.

The sailing yachts segment is expected to show steady growth in the market owing to the growing demand for environment-friendly yachts among people. Fuel emissions are a major pollutant in modern times, and the yacht industry contributes a substantial amount of the same. Moreover, sailing yachts are cheaper than other yachts and can travel more distances than motor yachts.

By End-user Analysis

Leisure Segment to Account for the Largest Market Share Due to the Rising Number of High Net Worth Individuals

The market is further segmented into leisure, business, and others based on end-user.

The leisure segment held the major global market share in 2022 due to increased tourism. The increasing inclination toward luxury cruising drives the yacht rental industry, especially from High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNWI) and Ultra-High Net Worth Individuals (UHNWI) worldwide.

The emergence of new tourist destinations offering luxury cruises and beautiful scenery has encouraged wealthy and ultra-rich people worldwide to discover these tourist destinations. Moreover, leading companies focus more on providing enhanced and extensive luxury cruising for their customers by developing premium features such as infrastructure, internet facilities, and bars and restaurants, which is expected further to boost the yacht industry in the leisure segment.

The business segment is gaining popularity in the market as the yacht business is a simple concept and is structured much like any other profit-earning business. Higher-class individuals or high-tax payers are increasing their investment in yachts and operating them actively for profit through third-party management services or themselves. Significantly, the U.S. buyers who fall under the high-income tax brackets choose this ownership option.

For instance, in April 2020, MYSEA announced its appointment as the Global Charter Central Agent of M/Y FLEUR Yacht with several exceptional facilities such as a retractable roof, Jacuzzis, and outdoor cinema, among others.

Europe Dominates the Market Due to Well-Established Tourism Industry in the Region

Geographically, the market is segmented into Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and the Rest of the World.

Europe held the largest yacht charter market share in 2022. The region will likely dominate the market due to the high growth of sea tourism and the rising number of tourist destinations. Countries, such as Croatia, Greece, France, Spain, and Italy, are the major tourist destinations. The increasing popularity of fishing activities and water sports and rising number of upper-class individuals are expected to drive the development of the market in the region. European flight bookings, cooperation with online demand for charter service providers, and increased craft permits issued are expected to boost market growth. The region's wealthy population is also likely to drive market growth. 

North America holds the second most important position in the market as the region's diverse coastlines have great cruise destinations. The U.S. ranks first in this regional market due to the presence of major charter hubs in the country.

The Asia Pacific yacht charter market is expected to record the highest CAGR in the coming years. This growth has been attributed to the rapid increase in urbanization, rising living standards, and rising disposable income, leading to the evolution of individual tastes. The growing popularity of recreational activities, such as fishing and water sports, in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, China, Japan and Australia, and increasing maritime tourism, present excellent opportunities for yacht hiring companies. Moreover, aggressive government initiatives to develop maritime tourism, especially in countries, such as China and India, are expected to boost market growth.

PORTO CERVO, ITALY - AUGUST 22: An aerial view of a bay full of boats in Costa Smeralda illustrates ... [+] the popularity of yachting along the Italian coastline. A recent study by Altagamma analyzed impacts the Italian Nautical Industry have on Italy's economy. (Photo by Emanuele Perrone/Getty Images)

The Altagamma Foundation knows luxury. Particularly, Italian luxury. Since 1992, the organization has studied the high end Italian brands in fashion, design, jewelry, food, hospitality, automotive, yachts, and wellness. Their mission? To increase competitiveness of the high end industry, contributing to Italy's economic growth.

Released on June 25th, 2024, an Altagamma-Deloitte study of the Italian Nautical Industry revealed that the industry grew three times faster than Italy's GDP between 2012 and 2022, and that its overall impact is 2.7 times as much as its direct impact, six times greater than its employment impact.

Presented by Giovanna Vitelli, Vice President of Altagamma for the nautical sector, and Tommaso Nastasi, Senior Partner of Deloitte, the study pointed to steps the industry might take to grow those numbers even bigger. President of Altagamma Matteo Lunelli was also present. Vitelli is also Chair of the Azimut|Benetti group, a top yacht builder both in Italy and around the world.

The Italian Nautical Industry

Not only is yachting a huge economic force in Italy, it also employs 157,000 people. Looking at the industry with an eye toward growth opportunities and its value chain, there are some interesting numbers that shape the discussion.

Best High-Yield Savings Accounts Of 2024

Best 5% interest savings accounts of 2024.

Italian new build production represents 50 percent of the global superyacht portfolio. Think professional services requiring highly technical knowledge and expertise generating €11.4 billion ($12.2 billion) and engaging more than 54,000 employees, directly, indirectly, and in satellite functions.

Yachts and marine tourism boast attraction that brings €16.3 billion ($17.5 billion) and 103,000 people to the sector. The yachts come for the international scene as well as manufacturing excellence in refits, accounting for one-third of on-the-ground tourism spending.

Italy's nearly 8000 km (5,000 miles) coastlines and islands stretch across the Mediterranean Sea and attract large numbers of both local and foreign tourists. (Photo by Fabrizio Villa/Getty Images)

The report found that a main expansion area for yachting revolves around development of marinas. Analysis found that just 30 percent of available berths in Italy are located in marinas that are able to receive yachts and superyachts with appropriate technical facilities and interesting tourism opportunities.

Bigger Yachts Make Bigger On-Ground Impacts

The study found that yachts over 18 meters make up 65 percent of the total economic impact, 80 percent of which is in shipbuilding. While this sector only owns 2 percent of the yachts visiting Italy, it spurs 55 percent of the downstream value coming from the use of the yachts.

Additionally, on the ground spending related to large yachts, of which only 6.5 percent sail under an Italian flag, averages 26 times greater than the average across the nautical sector. Analysis revealed large yachts registered in Italy, crewed by Italians, visiting the coastline for at least 10 weeks per year, delivers a €1.6 million ($1.7 million) overall contribution. Encouraging more yachts to visit will have obvious benefits.

In 2022, the world's superyacht fleet, embracing those greater than 24 meters, reached 6,400. Approximately 30 percent, or 2,000, visited the Italian coasts. That superyacht sector forms the highest spending segment across multiple goods categories, with yachts greater than 24 meters spending €10-100K ($11-108K) and yachts over 60 meters spending five times that.

Altagamma Recommendations

Presented by Joanna Vitelli, the organization suggested working to bring yacht charter VAT rates in line with those charged by tourism and hotels. They also suggested updating regulations and procedures to encourage more robust Italian flag registration.

About Altagamma

The organization has an impressive member list, embracing brands from Alfa Romeo and Brioni, to Gucci, Riva, and Versace, with a partners list that includes such august names as American Express, Bain & Co, JPMorgan, and Pirelli.

Absolute has built its success on navetta, flybridge and coupé yachts

Wise Equity has announced it will acquire a majority stake in Absolute, the northern Italy-based shipbuilder. The investment, which will be made via its Wisequity VI fund, will assist with the Italian manufacturer’s plans for growth and development.

With the agreement, Wisequity V1 will acquire a major stake in the luxury-yacht maker.

Absolute, founded in 2002 by Sergio Maggi and Marcello Bè, is a leading manufacturer of navetta, flybridge and coupé yachts from 47 to 75ft. All yachts are currently made in-house at its production plant in Piacenza.

The manufacturer has seen increasing growth and expects to close out this financial year in August with more than €110 million in revenue. It says of that sum, about 90 per cent was made abroad. The manufacturer, which has a sales subsidiary in the United States, operates in more than 30 countries.

The transaction involves the acquisition of a majority stake by Wisequity VI and its co-investors, the significant reinvestment of the majority of the existing shareholders and the presence of Angelo Gobbi as Absolute’s Honorary Chairman, to ensure the manufacturer’s strategic and managerial continuity.

Gobbi was jovial about the investment. “Absolute’s motto is: ‘he who hesitates, is lost!’” he said following the announcement. “That is why for some time now we have been reflecting on the future of Absolute. We must continue to evolve, as we have always done.”

Wise Equity, he said, was an ideal partner to strengthen and support the manufacturer through its next phase of growth.

Wise Equity SGR manages closed-end investment funds that invest in small and medium-sized companies, with a special focus on Italy. It currently has three funds under management. Wisequity VI was launched in May 2023 with a total commitment of €400 million. The Absolute deal is its fourth investment.

Jerry Jones’ Yacht: A Look at the Dallas Cowboys Owner’s Massive Boat

T here might not be a more influential person in all of American sports than Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. Jones is one of the most visible owners in the NFL , and he’s been at the forefront of the league’s massive growth in recent decades.

Jones is one of the richest NFL owners , and his massive fortune allows him to make some lavish purchases. That includes his 357-foot yacht, the Bravo Eugenia. Let’s take a look at the impressive vessel.

When Did Jerry Jones Buy His Yacht?

Jones purchased his 357-foot yacht from the Dutch firm Oceanco back in 2019.

Shortly after Jones bought the boat, he showed off his new purchase by making the Cowboys’ 2020 NFL Draft picks while aboard the vessel, which was captured by ESPN’s cameras during their broadcast.

Jones named his superyacht the Bravo Eugenia in honor of his wife, Eugenia Jones.

“Creating our Bravo Eugenia was a project born out of true love for our family,” Jones told Yachts International . “Building and designing her became a family affair on every level of the project. Gene oversaw the project and guided us through every step of the process, while our entire family, including our children and grandchildren, visited Oceanco on many occasions, contributing to the yacht’s development and helping to shape our dream.”

“With Gene’s supervision, we were personally involved with every aspect of the build, all the way from the keel laying to every design decision to the christening ceremony to her delivery and beyond,” he added.

What Does Jones’ Superyacht Look Like?

There’s no way around it: Jones’ boat is an impressive piece of machinery.

Some of the amenities of the yacht include two Helipads, seven cabins capable of accommodating 14 guests, four decks worth of space, a 30-member crew, a gym, a swimming pool/plunge pool, a sauna, and a steam room.

All information and photos courtesy of Boat Safe .

Inside the 357-Foot Superyacht

As impressive as Jones’ yacht looks from the outside, it’s even more astonishing once you step inside.

How Much Did the Yacht Cost?

According to reports, Jones paid $250 million out of pocket to purchase his superyacht. With the annual estimated running costs being valued at $15-20 million a year, it’s safe to say that Jones will try to get the most out of his investment.

It certainly sounds like Jones is happy with his purchase. When asked why he bought the yacht, he told Yachts International that his goal is “to see as much of the world as possible from the perspective of the sea.”

“Bravo Eugenia gives us the flexibility to reach so many destinations that touch landscapes and cultures that will create unique and lasting family memories and experiences,” Jones said.

“On board Bravo Eugenia, our private and public areas are personalized with commissioned art, family memories and mementos, bespoke board games that depict our family history, such as Monopoly and Clue that represent our then and now. Bravo Eugenia is truly a reflection of our life and the things we love.”

ATHENS (Reuters) – A British man who had been taking part in a yachting regatta off the Greek island of Spetses was found dead on Friday, authorities said.

Coastguard authorities said the 44-year-old man was found in a bay area of the island with what appeared to be injuries on the left side of his head. He was taken to a local hospital which confirmed his death, the coastguard said.

Greek media and authorities said the man was part of a team participating in an annual classic yacht regatta running from June 26-29.

A postmortem will determine the cause of death, the coastguard said.
