Marine division

Yacht sales and purchase.

We help owners and buyers acquire and sell motor, sailing and explorer yachts worldwide, from 20 m day boats to superyachts and new-build slots.

Buying a yacht

From the first brief to the first voyage.

We begin with how you will use the yacht: cruising grounds, guest numbers, crew, charter plans and how far you want to travel between ports.

We search listed yachts and our private network, compare each one with recent sales, and give you an honest view of condition and value. Once you choose, we negotiate the memorandum of agreement, arrange the deposit with an escrow agent, and manage survey and sea trial.

At closing we coordinate the bill of sale, flag and registry, and crew handover, and can arrange maintenance, management and charter through our partners and sister companies.

Current listings

Current yacht listings.

A selection of yachts we can present publicly. More are available privately on request.

Listings marked "Sample" illustrate the format only and are not offered for sale. Specifications, availability and prices are confirmed by a broker and subject to contract.

Selling a yacht

Positioned well, sold privately or publicly.

We value your yacht against recent comparable sales, prepare the specification, photography and documents buyers expect, and advise on survey items to address before marketing.

You decide how visible the sale is. We qualify every buyer, arrange viewings and sea trials, and manage the process through to closing and handover.

FAQ

Yacht buying and selling questions

What does a yacht broker do?
A broker represents you in buying or selling a yacht: searching and valuing options, negotiating, arranging survey and sea trial, and coordinating escrow, flag and handover.
Why does VAT status matter?
A yacht's tax status affects where and how it can be used, especially in EU waters. We confirm the status and its consequences before you make an offer.
What happens at survey and sea trial?
An independent surveyor inspects the hull, machinery and systems, and the yacht is tested at sea. The results can lead to repairs, a price adjustment or withdrawal under the agreement.
Can a yacht be chartered to offset costs?
Many yachts are commercially compliant and can be chartered. Our sister company Atlas Maison arranges charter, and we check the yacht's charter licence and compliance before purchase.
