The SMARTEST approach is to buy a 1/2 or 1/4 share in a mega yacht lying No. America and a fractional ownership share in a vessel lying the Med. ! Enjoy 2 alternative seasonal locations for the price of 1 mega yacht and without repositioning costs.

With an above-average number of nearly-new or totally refit yachts available with certain of our clients (or very selectively on the brokerage market) owning 100% of their specific vessels, they can continue to own a fraction of the yacht they likely purchased new and have maintained in exceptional condition; you, the fractional buyer, benefit from sharing a known near-new or totally refit vessel at a depreciated cost and share the annual dockage, maintenance, crew, insurance, etc. proportionally to the percentage share you purchase !

NOW is the perfect time to own 50% (or perhaps a smaller percentage) of a mega yacht rather than taking on 100 percent of the purchase price and ALL of the annual operating expenses !

Ownership can even be obtained with little out-of-pocket cash ! Ask us about details........

CURRENT YACHT OWNERS - Take advantage of our Fractional Program by having us sell the unused portion of your idle yacht asset. You will receive immediate cash from the fractional sale, a partner to share the operating expenses with and the immediate benefit of professional yacht management, industry purchasing power and management expertise.

Don't try unsuccessfully to sell your yacht outright in this market; have us fractionalize it to sell more readily to 2, 3 or 4 actual buyers!

SOLE YACHT OWNERS - Sole yacht ownership is becoming too expensive and time-consuming. Today's buyers are looking to buy a yacht that they can enjoy, not one that is a constant burden. Most yacht owners use their yachts beween 4 and 6 weeks annually, yet continue to support them financially 100% year-round. Imagine the new freedom knowing your yacht is being supervised and maintained by a professional management team.

BROKERAGE and CHARTER vs. FRACTIONAL SALES - The benefits of our Fractional Program are structured to exceed those of sole ownership, chartering or club memberships.

BROKERING YOUR YACHT - If you are considering selling your yacht outright yourself (with all the headaches) or through a broker, you may want to plan on waiting a couple of years, particularly in this soft market, before you even see a serious buyer who want to pay you half of its value . Today's brokerage market offers (too) many yachts for sale in a buyers' market. In addition, yacht owners risk losing crew members before the yacht sells, once the crew learns that the yacht is for sale.

CHARTERING YOUR YACHT - Many yacht owners believe they can break even or make money by putting their vessel into charter, which is a misconception. Chartering can help owners offset some of the expenses and prevent crew members from becoming stagnant; however, in the longrun it will not make the owner money. Chartered vessels typically require more maintenance than privately utilized yachts and endure a greater amount of wear and tear from having guests with no sense of ownership on board, thus reducing the yacht's value and increasing maintenance expenses.

SUPPLY and DEMAND - Unlike the brokerage market in these economic times, the fractional yacht lifestyle market is expanding ! There is not enough supply to keep up with the global demand for clients looking to purchase fractional yacht shares of 1/4 or 1/2 interest (and 1/10 shares are usually a nightmare !). Many buyers are being waitlisted as fractional programs are seeking to expand their fractional fleets with exceptionally maintained vessels.

PREQUALIFIED BUYERS - We have access to serious candidates seeking limited shares in pedigree yachts ranging in size from 75' to 100 and up to 200 ft. LOA. These individuals typically own multiple residences, fractional jets, and resort residence club memberships or vacation homes and are well acquainted with the financial and other advantages of a fractional lifestyle. They wisely choose fractional yacht ownership realizing the benefits and freedom from the demands and costs of individual ownership.

YACHT MANAGEMENT - Our Yacht Management program utilizes only the best, most experienced yacht management companies to maintain a yacht's value and equity for its owners by controlling the yacht's ongoing expenses, maintenance & crew year round and of course, the total annually operating costs are fractionally shared by the owners commensurate with the percentage of the yacht owned; also, we do not mark up any yacht expenses, which gives the owners peace of mind that they are not overpaying !
