OWN A YACHT FOR A FRACTION OF THE COST
Become an equity co-owner via LLC. Preserve capital, enjoy guaranteed days each year, and arrive to a fully crewed, turn-key yacht—every time.
What Is Fractional Yacht Ownership?
It’s the smarter way to enjoy luxury yachting. You buy only a share of the yacht—but enjoy it as your own. Costs and responsibilities are shared among a small group of owners, while our team handles management, crew, maintenance, and provisioning. Maximum pleasure — minimum hassle.
- 5% share ≈ 12 days/year (split into two trips if you wish)
- Annual operations: ~$32,500 (your 5% share)
- APA: ~$7–10k/week (includes a $2k/week credit)
- Ownership via LLC (equity + liability protection)
- No public charter license — owners only

- Shared annual expenses: instead of ≈ $700k/yr for full ownership, your 10% share is about $70,000/yr.
- Charter offsets costs: market rate ≈ $42,000/week. Allocated weeks can cover a big part of expenses.
- Tax deductions (when business-use applies): operating expenses, interest on financing, and ~10% annual depreciation.
