This index tracks what a week on a crewed yacht costs, from the owner rate sheets of the yachts based in each destination. It is frozen once a month, so each figure is a dated monthly record.

The range is the middle half of the fleet: a quarter of the yachts charter for less and a quarter for more. Figures are in US dollars, before APA and tax.
