About yachts over 70 m

Over seventy metres only a few dozen yachts in the world are available at any one time, and each is its own project. These are ships in every respect: classed, commercially capable where the owner wanted it, with crews of twenty and more, tenders that would be yachts elsewhere, and interiors by studios that take one commission at a time. A purchase at this size is measured in months rather than weeks and usually begins with a viewing during a yard period. The Boatcrowd team arranges that.

What a yacht over 70 m costs to run

Cost What it covers A year
Crew 20 to 35 crew: salaries, with insurance, flights and training EUR 2.1m to 3.2m
Berth A year-round home berth in a Mediterranean marina EUR 250,000 to 900,000
Insurance Hull and machinery, and protection and indemnity EUR 320,000 to EUR 1.6m
Maintenance and yard Routine servicing and the annual yard period, not a refit EUR 1m to 3m
Fuel About 400 engine hours a year, generators included EUR 220,000 to 910,000
Management and administration Flag, class and registry, and a management fee where one is usual EUR 300,000 to 800,000
Total a year The rows above added together EUR 4.2m to 10.4m

Assumes twenty to thirty-five crew, a year-round home berth in a Mediterranean marina, about 400 engine hours a year with the generators and a yacht insured at EUR 80m to 200m; the largest yachts carry more crew than this and cost more to run, and published guides put yachts over 60 m at thirteen to twenty-two per cent of their value a year, well above the trade's ten per cent rule of thumb.

For a yacht at this band's median asking price of EUR 112.5m, that is roughly 4 to 9 per cent of her value a year.

Questions buyers ask

How many crew does a yacht this size need?

Twenty and upwards, and on the largest yachts considerably more. The structure is a merchant one: master, officers standing watches, a chief engineer with a department, security where the owner requires it, and an interior department that would run a small hotel. Crew rotation, training and accommodation standards are part of the specification at this size, not an afterthought.

Can I see the yacht before making an offer?

Yes, and you should. Viewings are arranged where the yacht is lying, which for much of the fleet means the Mediterranean in summer and the Caribbean or Florida in winter, and they have to be fitted around her own movements and any charters she is running. Tell the Boatcrowd team which yachts you want to see and we will put the itinerary together.

What does the VAT status on a listing mean?

VAT paid means European Union value added tax has been settled on the yacht and she can be used privately in EU waters without a further liability arising from that. VAT unpaid means it has not been settled, which suits a buyer who will keep the yacht outside the EU or import her under an arrangement of their own. The difference is a significant part of the asking price, so it is worth establishing before an offer is made. Where the seller has given us the status, it is printed on the listing.

How does buying a yacht through Boatcrowd work?

You tell us which yacht interests you through the enquiry form on her listing. We confirm she is still available at the price shown, collect the documents the seller holds, and arrange a viewing wherever she is lying. From there the usual sequence is an offer subject to survey and sea trial, a deposit held in a client account, the survey and trial themselves, and then closing and registration. The Boatcrowd team coordinates each step and stays with you through it.
