The 53-metre yacht is part of the Dutch builder’s Yacht Support range and will be delivered in 2023 as part of Anthony Hsieh’s unique and extensive private fishing programme.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/225426/image/large-0d8916dfdd7ade594828bcb900ebb9f3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/225426">The YS 53 range marks a strategic shift in <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1821" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Damen Yachting (Company)">Damen Yachting</a>’s Yacht Support approach and was introduced to the market in February this year. The new design draws on the experiences of the near 20 Yacht Support vessels they have already built and sold over the last decade.

YS 5301 will primarily be located in the Indian and Pacific Oceans where she will form the home and hub of his unique and extensive fishing programme. She will incorporate fishing in relatively uncharted waters and support several marine conservation projects.“What we are planning to do with the 5301 no one has ever done before, and I think this will set a whole new tier of adventure for future sportsmen to explore.” said Anthony Hsieh, owner of the Bad Company fleet. “My hope is that this ambitious programme will inspire a whole new generation of sportsmen to create their own programmes. It will be good for the sport, yachting and the fishing industries.”The YS 5301 will be equipped with a 43-foot Release Game boat and a 32-foot Blackfin boat which carries significant sentiment for Hsieh. Blackfin was Hsieh’s first Game fishing boat purchase more than 30 years ago and has recently been repurchased and refurbished for this adventure. Both of these Game boats will be deployed into locations where the programme does not already have a Bad Company fleet. The Atlantic operations of the programme are covered by the 46-metre YS 4508 Yacht Support, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/7926" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bad Company Support45.6m (149'7&quot;)Damen Yachting2019">BAD COMPANY SUPPORT</a>.

The only thing better than scuba diving into the ocean’s depths — doing it in a submarine. When it comes to time spent at sea, there’s a reason that both thrill seekers and creatures of comfort alike rush to experience the simultaneously exciting yet calming experience of deep sea diving in a submarine. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/183998/image/large-a0c08f55356a99871d337f8bc6d196ae.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/183998"><a href="https://sya.superyachttimes.com/companies/triton" target="_blank">Triton</a> models such as the <a href="https://superyachtsalesandcharter.com/sales/umbra-006-triton-3300-submersible/" target="_blank">Umbra 006</a> and <a href="https://superyachtsalesandcharter.com/sales/umbra-007-triton-3300-submersible/" target="_blank">Umbra 007</a> from <a href="https://sya.superyachttimes.com/companies/superyacht-sales-and-charter" target="_blank">Superyacht Sales &amp; Charter</a> are steering the trend of submersibles and proving that submarine diving is an unmissable holiday exploit set to shape the future of time spent aboard superyachts.As a solo diver, there’s only so far (and so deep) one can go with just goggles and a tank full of o2, even with years of experience under your wetsuit. Trading it all in for the open expanse offered by a submarine’s window means opening yourself up to seeing some of the world’s most awe-inspiring underwater sites. Here, we line up some of the best submarine diving sites in the world.&nbsp;1. The Galápagos&nbsp;The Galápagos Islands offer visitors a chance to interact with some of the world’s most unusual &nbsp;and rarely seen creatures. A superyacht visit to this remote spot is an unforgettable experience, but a submarine dive will take this trip to new heights, or in fact lows.&nbsp;Drop a few thousand feet beneath the sea’s surface, and you can expect to go head-to-hammerhead with sharks that are drawn to the sub’s electromagnetic field. In summer months, the seas of the Galápagos are also teeming with unusual marine life, from humpback whales and whale sharks, to pelagic sea cucumbers.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/196386/image/large-ce05a1e6b2621a63d80499ac9d78ab95.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/196386">2. Great Blue Hole, Belize&nbsp;With a depth of 124 metres and a width of 300 metres, the Great Blue Hole in Belize is the biggest sea-hole in the world, making it a bucket-list-worthy diving spot for every <a href="https://superyachtsalesandcharter.com/sales/umbra-006-triton-3300-submersible/" target="_blank">Umbra 006</a> and <a href="https://superyachtsalesandcharter.com/sales/umbra-007-triton-3300-submersible/" target="_blank">Umbra 007</a> owner.&nbsp;Reef sharks, turtles and corals line the shallower waters of the hole, but this water soon gives way to spaces where life struggles to thrive. A submarine can float down past lifeless husks of crabs and conches that could not survive in the dark of the Blue Hole’s cold depths where icicle-like stalactite formations remain from when it was a land cave during the last ice-age. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/196541/image/large-33377eea552495721bfb3797dfd5db91.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/196541">3. Sipadan, MalaysiaA world-renowned diving spot, Sidapan, only issues a limited number of diving permits per day. Formed over thousands of years as living corals grew over an extinct volcano, Sidapan’s ecosystem includes more than 3,000 species of fish and hundreds of species of coral. Barracuda Point is home to a mesmerising school of barracuda fish, bumphead parrotfish, turtles, reef sharks and hammerheads. While here, you can also visit the Siwadee wrecks where a former navy vessel and two former wooden fishing boats sit on the ocean floor.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/196526/image/large-1a7172b513218a7d1b4408efcb84711f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/196526">4. President Coolidge Wreck, VanuatuPresident Coolidge is located off the shores of the South Pacific Ocean archipelago of Vanuatu. Although the boat was originally built as a luxury liner for wealthy holiday goers in the 1930s, the vessel was pressed into service as a troop carrier in the Second World War, which is where she met her end after hitting a mine.The large wreck is still mostly intact and the bow of the ship is popular with divers who come from around the world. However, without a submarine, divers will be hard-pressed to reach the boat’s stern, which is just shy of 240-feet deep. Submarine divers can spot rifles, trucks and jeeps and even the ship’s swimming pool. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/196525/image/large-b2f5bdaf7125d2597329dc8d08e5514c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/196525">5. &nbsp;Yongala Shipwreck, Australia&nbsp;Our final submarine pick is another, even older, wreck: Queensland’s Yongala. En route to Townsville in 1911, the luxury passenger steam liner sunk during a cyclone. With 124 on board, no one is thought to have survived, and the ship’s resting place remained unknown for decades.&nbsp;Sitting inside the Great Barrier Reef Marine park, the wreck is considered an advanced dive due to strong currents and its remote location. But with the security of a submarine, the wreckage is a diver’s paradise and marine-life magnet. From sea turtles, sharks, sea snakes to manta and eagle rays, there is a whole host of sea life amongst the largely-intact vessel.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/177723/image/large-3fa13ad572e6a193cf96116f1f325323.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/177723"><a href="https://superyachtsalesandcharter.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">Visit Superyacht Sales &amp; Charter n</a><a href="https://superyachtsalesandcharter.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">ow</a>, to find out more about what it’s like to own your very own <a href="https://superyachtsalesandcharter.com/sales/umbra-006-triton-3300-submersible/" target="_blank">Umbra 006</a> or <a href="https://superyachtsalesandcharter.com/sales/umbra-007-triton-3300-submersible/" target="_blank">Umbra 007</a>.

5 best submarine diving sites in the world

SYT lines up five of the top diving sites in the world for any yacht owner looking for a submersible adventure.

5 of the world's most unmissable submarine diving sites

This Market Insight article was written for SuperYacht Times by TWW Broker James Hall.As 2020 began, I was excitedly looking forward to the new challenges brought about by my decision to work on the other side of the fence as a yacht broker. Up until then, I’d spent the majority of my career working for manufacturers, firstly at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/354" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Sunseeker (Company)">Sunseeker</a> on their large yacht offerings, culminating in the position of Superyacht Sales Manager and subsequently with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1912" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Princess Yachts (Company)">Princess</a> as the Director of their M Class Yacht Division. During this time, I was directly involved in over 70 projects between 30-50 metres and thoroughly enjoyed the experience of developing and selling yachts to every corner of the globe.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/180559/image/large-f438de61907bae356edcec0fbcc0586e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/180559">I could see so many sales opportunities all over the world as we settled into the year. There was a good volume of stock available of all yachts of all sizes, but particularly in the 30-50 metre size range. This market had a number of good quality used yachts for sale, as well as new yachts available from various manufacturers with relatively short delivery times.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/21856/image/large-3cbaf94b290a601dd947f7e1dc28ddae.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/21856">In the early part of 2020, momentum was building and deals were starting to come together. And then Covid hit. It felt like the world stopped, as we drew breath and wondered what we would see in the next months. Some predicted massive crashes, others thought there might be a little movement, but none of us knew what would happen. Like many in the industry, I had personally experienced motor yacht market fluctuations in the past such as the financial crisis of 2008, however at that time other regions of the world such as Asia really picked up. 2020 was different, as the whole world was affected and I think all yacht brokers were expecting the worst. The general consensus was that the market would collapse as the economy headed into recession, and this was supported by the expectations of buyers who were unable to travel to see, inspect, buy and use yachts post purchase. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/167469/image/large-84488976da92391f36abaedc31cf18d5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/167469">This seemed to be the case at the start of the pandemic when a limited number of very keen deals and opportunities came to light. A few sellers panicked and there were some great deals made by buyers at the time, often without viewing the yacht in person. As the weeks went on, it became clear that the market was seeing a massive change and strengthening – particularly when buyers were able to travel to view yachts and the brokerage industry had adapted to arrange good-quality virtual viewings.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/167468/image/large-132127f2df5f6436fad7d19dbcb73830.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/167468">We experienced a raft of new buyers coming into the market. These people were looking for a safe environment they could control, and the ability to travel freely with friends and family. The pandemic brought home to many who in the past had thought of buying ‘one day’ that that day was now!<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/96945/image/large-ecd2dcd04b16ac238f2dd333a0663148.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/96945">As the summer progressed, we saw a positive upswing in real enquiries, and the successful sale of sensibly priced yachts which continued to the year’s end. This was to such an extent that currently, at the start of 2021 there is limited stock available in both the brokerage market and in new yachts from the manufacturers. In fact, some of the production manufacturers have reduced their output of yachts over 30 metres, as new emissions rules have been introduced for keels laid after the start of 2021. This makes the limited stock of new boats coming to the market even tighter.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/96942/image/large-ed6c7aa9159008e383c5cc6ae2833744.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/96942">So, what does 2021 look like? I believe that the ‘killer deal’ for the buyer will be very rare before the start of the season, however, for the seller looking to list their yacht, they will be able to maintain good value as long as their expectations are realistic. As such, now is as good as time as any to put your yacht on the market.The article was originally published in the&nbsp;<a href="https://sya.superyachttimes.com/news/brexit-latest-in-superyacht-times-newspaper" target="_blank">Spring 2021 issue of The SuperYacht Times newspaper.</a>&nbsp;To receive all future issues straight to your door, <a href="https://shop.superyachttimes.com/" target="_blank">subscribe to the newspaper here</a>.
