About yachts in Hong Kong
Hong Kong is one of the established yachting centres of Asia, and every yacht on this page is lying in its waters. The cruising is local and varied: the islands and anchorages of Sai Kung and Port Shelter to the east, the Ninepin Group beyond them, and the outlying islands to the south and west, all within a short run of the city. The fleet here is mostly in the twenties and early thirties of metres, led by Sunseeker, Riva, Azimut, Custom Line and Bluegame.
Buying in Hong Kong
- VAT and tax
- Hong Kong is not in the EU and has no VAT, GST or general sales tax as at September 2026. Customs and Excise collects duty on four types of dutiable commodity only (liquor, tobacco, certain hydrocarbon oil and methyl alcohol), and a yacht is not among them. Read our VAT and tax guide
- Flag and registration
- A Certificate of Ownership and an Operating Licence from the Marine Department are needed before a vessel operates in Hong Kong waters, with third party risk insurance of at least HK$5,000,000, and the skipper must hold a local Pleasure Vessel Operator certificate. A pleasure vessel of more than 150 gross tonnage and at least 24 metres first needs an Approval-in-Principle letter from the Director of Marine before plan approval and survey.
- Berths
- Lantau Yacht Club at Discovery Bay has 148 wet berths in a marina designed for yachts up to 100 metres; the Gold Coast Yacht and Country Club at Tuen Mun takes yachts up to 200 feet on its pontoons; Hong Kong Marina in Sai Kung has 190 berths including superyacht berths from 80 to over 100 feet. Berths for yachts over 70 metres are few, and the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club and Aberdeen Marina Club are long-established member clubs.
- Refit and survey
- Haul-out and repair in Hong Kong is found at the clubs and marinas: Hebe Haven Yacht Club in Sai Kung offers slipping, craning and boat repair, and Hong Kong Marina arranges maintenance, hull, rigging and refit work through partner firms. Industry guides list the region's larger superyacht refit facilities in Singapore and at Batam in Indonesia.
- When to view
- Hong Kong is cruised all year, but May to November are the months in which tropical cyclones may strike, with July to September the most likely; November and December are sunny with pleasant breezes. The Festa Nautica show at Lantau Yacht Club runs from 6 to 8 November 2026, and the Hong Kong International Boat Show at Club Marina Cove in Sai Kung is scheduled for December 2026.

Questions buyers ask
What does Hong Kong's free port status mean for a buyer?
There is no VAT, no GST and no import duty on a yacht, because Hong Kong levies excise only on a short list of goods such as spirits, tobacco and fuel. That keeps the purchase itself simpler than in the European Union. Registration, licensing and a berth are separate matters, and a berth that fits a yacht of this size is worth securing before you commit.
When is the cruising season in Hong Kong?
From October into spring. The northeast monsoon brings dry, clear weather in autumn and early winter, while the southwest monsoon from May to September is hot and wet, and the typhoon season can run on into October and November. Late autumn and winter are the most settled times for a viewing and a sea trial, when the water is calm enough to see how she really behaves.
Do I need a survey and a sea trial?
On any yacht that has been in the water, yes. A survey establishes the condition of the hull, the machinery and the systems, and a sea trial shows how she actually behaves at operating speed and at anchor. Offers are normally made subject to both, so the findings can be discussed before anything is final. On a yacht in build the equivalent is the yard's own sequence of inspections and the handover trials at the end of it.
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.
