The Australian advantage of the economic climate for superyachts
Thursday, 27 November 2008
Platinum, a new 38 metre superyacht built in Australia, is just one of the examples of an exceptional purchase during these economic times. Recently released into the global market this new superyacht was priced competitively at $19.5m USD. Just a few months later the exchange rates now make Platinum one of the best superyacht purchases globally. Now placed at $9.95m USD, the superyacht hasn’t dropped by half price, the exchange rate of the USD and Australian Dollar has moved from 0.96 – down to hovering at 0.60.
The superyacht industry in Australia will be benefiting from this global reaction and the builder of Platinum says that he is keen to lay the keel for another superyacht and so Platinum is now the best value for the US Market.
This exchange rate will only be available as the markets move toward stabilisation. However, one thing that can be assured of being stable is Platinum. She was designed for global cruising and chartering, fully stabilised and is ready for sea.
There are few superyachts in the market that the new owner can take immediate delivery and choose their own carpet colour scheme then sail away.
