Why Yachts Represent the Epitome of Luxury

Why Yachts Represent the Epitome of Luxury

Yachts are a symbol of luxury and wealth in America, with other countries following suit. But why? After all, they’re just small to medium-sized vessels commonly used for recreational or leisure purposes. Here’s why yachts have been increasingly viewed as a representation of wealth.

The Gilded Age

The Gilded Age in the history of the United States was characterized by a rise in materialism and a love for all things luxury. American financier J. P. Morgan owned four yachts known as the Corsair, each built bigger and better than the rest. This was just the beginning of the rise of the luxury cruise market following World War II.

The Impact of Literature

Following the end of the Great War, plenty of American novels captured the emergence of the United States as a permanent world power in an era known as the Roaring 20s. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel set in the Jazz period known as The Great Gatsby featured a wealthy man who loved flaunting his riches, including a collection of yachts seen as a symbol of immense luxury. The impact of literature led to Americans viewing yachts as the epitome of wealth.

Lucrative Investments

Buying a yacht is also a smart investment for people who have the money. LVMH, the largest luxury goods maker in the world, set its foot in the yacht business after acquiring the Netherlands-based custom-designed yacht maker Royal van Lent. Each Royal van Lent yacht is a status symbol in its own right and costs anywhere between 30–50 million Euros.

The wealthy often like to invest in yachts as a hobby, and some yacht owners even spend their entire year living on them and sailing across the ocean. A yacht is a worthy investment if you have the money for it. And even if you don’t, you can rent or charter one instead.

If you’re searching for a yacht to charter, take a look at our fleet of luxury yachts. At Cabo Yacht World, you can get a private catamaran charter in Cabo, San Lucas.

Should You Buy or Charter a Yacht?

Should You Buy or Charter a Yacht?

When it comes to luxury, nothing can beat the grandeur and comfort of a yatch. An ideal luxurious vacation includes sailing in the deep ocean on a private yacht. But the question here is: should you buy a yacht or would chartering one do the job? Let’s find out!

Pros and Cons of Purchasing Your Own Yacht

Pros:

Achieve the epitome of the American dream: own a yacht. There may be some cons to buying your personal yacht but it sure does bring you to the top of the luxury ladder. You can go cruising on your yacht any time. No pre-bookings required. You’d be able to make memories on-deck and you can relive them years later by sailing on the exact same boat. It will be your second home and you can host parties, invite guests or just have an intimate date night. Not to forget, having a yacht of your own is a huge status symbol, screaming that “You’ve made it!”

Cons:

Obviously, its luxury; but luxury that requires maintenance. You can’t just buy it and put it in your backyard. The yacht requires constant maintenance to stay fit. You would also have to hire crew members for your yacht who could assist you in riding the boat or taking care of it. Your destination would be restricted to where you live. You can’t cross international waters and if you’re out of the country, you can’t really use your yacht.

Pros and Cons of Chartering a Yacht

Pros:

There are many reasons in favor of chartering a yacht. You don’t have to worry about maintenance. You will always get a well-furnished boat. In addition, you will also get a highly trained crew to assist you at all time. This is always a plus especially if you want to relax and have a good time with your family. Also, since you’re renting a luxurious yacht, there are no geographical boundaries. You can enjoy the luxury, wherever you are.

Cons:

There aren’t much cons associated to yacht charter. The only thing not in favor is that you don’t own the boat so you may have to book a new yacht every time you want to have some fun time.

5 Luxury Yachts That Are Inspired by Sports Cars

5 Luxury Yachts That Are Inspired by Sports Cars

How does a luxury yacht combined with the looks and performance of a sports car look? In one word: excellence. It’s undoubtedly a unique combination that brings together the best of both worlds. Here are some of the best luxury yachts that got inspiration from the best sports cars of all time.

Riva Ferrari 32

Only 40 models of this iconic luxury yacht have been manufactured, which simply goes to show just how exclusive it is. Perhaps the perfection of this model lies in the background of its founders. Riva, a renowned boat maker who was internationally recognized, collaborated with his Italian counterpart for luxury sports cars, Enzo Ferrari. The resulting model was a breathtaking piece which bore the signature red color of the Ferrari cars.

96ft Mardiosa

Baratucci Yacht Inc. designed this pristine model in 2004. The yacht includes a dining area, entertainment space and a fishing deck all laced with the finest oak and walnut finishing. It boasts a maximum speed of 33 knots and the best thing is that you can experience its top-class luxury yourself.

Lexus Sports Yacht

This sports yacht combines the advanced technology of Lexus cars into the design and exterior. The sleek-looking design embodies the speed and seamless cruising experience delivered by the yacht.

Motali

While luxury yachts inspired by sports cars seem like a modern concept that would have most likely materialized after 2000, it is not true. This yacht was launched all the way back in 1993. The designers drew inspiration from 1950s vehicles and modernized the end look. This timeless piece was made in participation by Nissan design and Turkish Yonca and the cultures of the two countries can be seen reflected in the design.

Arrow 460-Granturismo

This luxury yacht was inspired by the Mercedes Benz Silver Arrows racing cars collection and launched in 2016. The Silver Arrows Marine and the Mercedes-Benz teams collaborated to bring this project to life. The silver design sharply stands out on the open waters and is a head-turning obstacle for all.

The luxury yacht industry has produced some legendary models in its collaboration with the sports car world. For people who enjoy the best of cars and boats, and can’t decide between the sea or the road, these vehicles provide the best alternative. To learn more about how you can rent some of these luxury sports yachts, reach out to us. Our fleet includes the 96ft Mardiosa and the 96ft Barattucci among others.
