Fractional yacht ownership is a unique investment opportunity where multiple owners share the purchase price, the operating costs and the use of a yacht. As a fractional owner, you actually own a share of the company that owns the yacht itself, not just the right to use it. Each yacht is free of encumbrances and is owned outright by the fractional owners.

Fractional yacht ownership in Florida marries the best of both yacht ownership and yacht rentals. You get to own a high-end asset at a fraction of the cost, and enjoy access to larger and better-equipped yachts than you might afford by yourself. Unlike a timeshare, fractional ownership means you own a part of the asset, not merely the right to use it at predetermined times. Compared to owning a second property, fractional yacht ownership offers unique mobility and a luxurious lifestyle experience.

Fractional yacht ownership involves shared costs among all the owners. These costs encompass the initial price of the yacht, as well as ongoing operating expenses such as crew salaries, maintenance, repairs, insurance, and dockage fees. As an owner, your share of these costs will be proportionate to your ownership stake.

As a fractional owner, you will be able to use the yacht for a certain amount of weeks each year, proportional to your ownership share. The scheduling is designed to ensure fair and equitable access to all owners and typically depends on the agreement among the co-owners.
