Yachts, cars, houses—when it comes to the bigger things in life (literally), it pays to do your homework before you sign the dotted line.
With yachts, for instance, you want them to last a lifetime. They need to be well-maintained, fitted with the latest equipment, and most of all, possess the perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics.
So how do you find the right one? Here are some details that will help you buy the perfect yacht!
What You Should Know
– Consider Your Options
With pre-used boats, you get the benefit of having a yacht that’s already gone into waters. If you’re tempted to buy a brand-new yacht from a luxury seller, be warned: you’ll need to prepare for some serious depreciation. This is where older boats have the upper hand.
Having been used before, you not only get a yacht that’s used to the water, but you also get it for a much less expensive price than a new one.
– Know Your Requirements
You can’t enter a store without knowing what to look for!
When looking for yachts, get the details down pat. The number of passengers, whether it’ll be used for traveling or if you’ll charter it out, the size, whether you want a luxury cruise or a speed boat—all these details—plus a pre-decided budget—will narrow down your choices and will make the buying decision easier.
Important Note: When counting passengers, don’t forget to factor in the crew.
– Do Your Research on Yacht Pricing
Yachts are a considerable investment, so expect to spend a substantial amount on one. Prices start from $100,000 and onwards, going up to $100 million if you want a supremely luxurious, custom-fit yacht.
But again, if you want to get a sweeter deal, it’s better to go with a second-hand one. You’ll save on the initial cost, and will have enough left over for any custom designs requirements.
– Try it Before You Buy it
Let’s say you’ve chartered a luxury yacht in the past from Cabo Yacht World. Given that we’re offering pre-owned yachts for sale, you’ll most likely have tried them for past adventures. Buying a yacht you’ve tested before will give you the peace of mind of knowing that everything works as it should.
You already know the seller, which means you’ll be buying from a trusted vendor, and if you have good negotiation skills, you might even come to a price that you’ll both be happy with.
