According to <a href="https://sytiq.superyachttimes.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">SYT iQ</a>, in 2023, the used superyacht market experienced a notable decline of -33% in the sale of yachts measuring 24-metres or more, with only 487 yachts sold, compared to the 725 sold in the previous year. This is also a further decrease compared to the number of yachts sold in 2021 which was 944 and 600 in 2020.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/296316/image/large-736bb7e797b1bf4185406a3fe8999f84.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/296316">Jan Jaap Minnema of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/158" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Fraser (Company)">Fraser</a> commented: “although it seems dramatic, we all know that in this business, we have to have a broader perspective, and look at periods over five years or more to put it all in perspective.

Solid brokerage houses will consolidate their position and adapt to the situation."<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/296315/image/large-bd2b480729b77d70c6cb3eab44d40b64.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/296315">Kevin Ralph of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2529" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Worth Avenue Yachts (Company)">Worth Avenue</a> commented: “market activity was unprecedented during Covid, but now activity and pricing is resetting to pre-Covid levels and sellers in particular will have to moderate their resale expectations".Despite this downturn, the total asking price is poised to surpass last year's figure of €4,925,939,000. This intriguing shift can be attributed to the sale of very large used yachts in 2023. While there have been fewer transactions, the significant value of these large yachts has markedly elevated the average price. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/257504/image/large-bb5b633dcabdfb819a1ec06c166939d0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/257504">A detailed examination of the top five yachts ranked by their last known asking prices in 2023 includes: the 115.1-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/23" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lürssen Yachts (Company)">Lürssen</a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/7335" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ahpo115.1m (377'7&quot;)Lürssen Yachts2021">Ahpo</a> which was €330,000,000, the 95-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/23" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lürssen Yachts (Company)">Lürssen</a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6423" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Madsummer95.0m (311'8&quot;)Lürssen Yachts2019">Madsummer</a> which was €227,500,000, the 89-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/18" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Amels (Company)">Amels</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/5732" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Here Comes The Sun89.0m (291'12&quot;)Amels2016">Here Comes the Sun</a> with a last asking price of $195,000,000, the 95.2-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/23" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lürssen Yachts (Company)">Lürssen</a> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/4095" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Whisper95.2m (312'4&quot;)Lürssen Yachts2014">Whisper</a> (ex-Kismet) which was €149,000,000 and finally the 74.98-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/29" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship (Company)">Feadship</a> superyacht <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6415" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Arrow74.98m (245'12&quot;)Feadship2020">Arrow</a> with a last known asking price of €139,900,000.

So, the total value of the top five superyachts sold in 2022 was over €500,000,000. Again, off market deals are excluded.This reflects a 100 percent increase in the total value of the top five most expensive used yachts sold in 2023. Mind you, if we include off-market deals as well, the value of the five largest used yachts sold in 2023 versus the five largest in 2022 is still up year-on-year by a more modest 56 percent, from about €700 million in 2022 to about €1.1 billion in 2023.Moreover, with many new-build slots already booked until 2026/2027, particularly for the larger yachts, there's a notable trend of more Ultra High Net Worth Individuals (UHNWIs) investing additional capital in acquiring used superyachts. This trend is reflected in the average volume for this year, which stands at 352 gross tonnes (GT) compared to 300 GT in 2022. In addition the average length of yachts sold this year was 36-metres compared to 35-metres last year.&nbsp;To find out more about SYT iQ, <a href="https://sytiq.superyachttimes.com/contact-us" target="_blank">reach out to the team to book a demo today</a>.

Growing up in Florida, my Dad’s love for boating, more specifically, water-skiing, meant that I was put in a life jacket at just 3 months old. My brother and I spent countless hours on the water and never shy away from an opportunity to convince our Dad to invest in bigger, better boats. At 10 years old, I sold my first boat, a brand new 210 Nautique, which I did by explaining the deprecation schedules between a Mastercraft and a Nautique!&nbsp;I have always maintained a relentless mindset, it's part of who I am, and I never accept “no” for an answer. Regardless of the challenge, I find a way to make it work. I’ve seen myself alongside my business partners, Michael Tabor and Tony Imbesi overcome adversity I never imagined. Overcoming these hurdles has profoundly affected my belief in myself and our team's ability at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6336" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kitson Yachts (Company)">Kitson Yachts</a>. We see no limits! As we have grown our business through the years, we, in fact, welcome challenges and embrace hardships, it has become a driving force for <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6336" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kitson Yachts (Company)">Kitson</a>. We often joke when we think a large deal is going sideways. This is our signal that the deal is near. My morals align with the belief that nothing is given, challenges are absolute, and if I continue to persevere, the rest will take care of itself.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/209768/image/large-528a90c752fb7f334ea95bb0bf3c4000.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/209768">How did you venture into the yachting industry?During my college years, I had the opportunity to intern at a boat manufacturing company owned by a family friend. This experience provided me with invaluable insights into building a boat from scratch and all the intricacies involved. I had a teammate on the football team whose family owned a Yacht brokerage company. During spring break, I visited their company and gained firsthand knowledge of how the industry operates. At that moment, I knew what I wanted to do, and I quickly applied for a job at a well-known national company. However, they informed me that I couldn’t work as a salesman for two years. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/257380/image/large-cddf3ac9f5f2f59a1eb3d85d77c80cac.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/257380">Fortunately, fate intervened when another prominent yachting executive came across my application for a store in Miami. He invited me to meet him during his layover at Orlando airport, and that encounter changed everything. Taking a chance on me, he offered me a position, and from that moment on, I was completely captivated by the industry.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/209770/image/large-4b321c8a54d9583f4425593c9a55aac4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/209770">Who has influenced your career so far?During my career, my clients have evolved into an extended family. Their impact on me has been profound, providing invaluable insights that have helped me excel in this industry and foster the growth of our company. While it’s challenging to single out just one, I am fortunate to have formed exceptionally close bonds with several clients. One lesson I always remember is from one of my first superyacht clients, “when you move, be sure to take leaps not steps”.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/278708/image/large-b5a49dca61f71926371b44f117b09a04.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/278708">You were the youngest broker ever to sell a 62-metre superyacht. Please tell us more about this prestigious sale and what motivated you at this young age.This was one for the books. I had no idea what I was walking into, which was probably for the best, as I was fearless. I was immediately immersed in the super yacht market and quickly understood how sharp your elbows must be if you want to be successful in this industry. To this day, this transaction was one of the most challenging/rewarding transactions of my career. I am extremely thankful for this client seeing my potential at a young age and taking a chance on me. As you can imagine jumping right into the deep end is a sink-or-swim experience, and looking back it was the best thing that could have happened.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/261068/image/large-18e7f734a2b85125000602a5bb9ea28a.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/261068"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/261608/image/large-5917b84e2776beac67d127605f51ba4f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/261608">Are there any memorable sales spanning your entire career that you look back and think of fondly?While it’s challenging to pinpoint a specific memory, the experience of selling three <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/29" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship (Company)">Feadships</a> 57-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/5518" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Halo57.47m (188'7&quot;)Feadship2015">Halo</a>, Project 825, and 75-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6415" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Arrow74.98m (245'12&quot;)Feadship2020">Arrow</a> before I was 30 years old was a significant milestone.

Shipyards and project managers are now adopting a proactive approach, recognising that the vessels currently under construction will play a crucial role in meeting the future demand for sustainability.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/278703/image/large-9d845c6a56171712b7c3a292a64774c6.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/278703">What is the most effective way to market a yacht in the current era of evolving technologies?We harness a pragmatic and targeted digital strategy custom to each yacht. Each yacht comes with its unique challenges and opportunities, and therefore, we identify the value and effectuate an action plan accordingly. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/261606/image/large-7f009089d739b48bd0010e0581268e99.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/261606">You have gone on to found <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6336" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kitson Yachts (Company)">Kitson Yachts</a>; how did this business venture come to fruition?Simply put, there was a meeting of the minds, shared values, and desire to effectuate change.

Consider where you plan to primarily use it and if chartering is part of your plans. Asking yourself these questions is crucial.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/261616/image/large-78cd64cba1355364cd241667a8306a8e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/261616">You have entered the charter market. Do you have any advice for those looking to charter a yacht?For those considering chartering a yacht, my foremost advice is to enlist the services of a charter broker. A charter broker’s primary role is to find the perfect match of yacht and crew for your needs, making effective communication with them essential. They will delve into your preferences, dietary restrictions, likes, dislikes, and preferred activities to create a tailored experience.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260982/image/large-5e0b5d0e908101ee7bd0fdc789fd82b9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260982"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260977/image/large-8f6d5719edca46c45cf34fc90675fbdb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260977"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/261615/image/large-05260427450aa1e9286fbcfa8bcdf3b2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/261615">Of course, networking is incredibly important in the yacht industry. What piece of advice would you give to an aspiring yacht broker?I would emphasise the significance of networking in person to an aspiring yacht broker.

Building strong connections and relationships with various industry professionals is also crucial. Be proactive in reaching out to yacht owners, captains, brokers, and other key players to establish meaningful connections. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260974/image/large-f1e8b48e26a0d27ba58c76493eef2e60.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260974">Finally, what would you opt for if you personally purchase a superyacht within the current market?I would focus on the new construction market. The process of building your custom superyacht is unmatched. The act of a shipyard, brokers, interior/exterior designers, and project managers all coming together to form one masterpiece is something special. I would engage the entire family and customise every aspect of the build to our personal liking. The more involved everyone is typically the better experience. This is a real-life goal for me and I look forward to making this a reality.&nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/278575/image/large-bf44b5b97eafa2a325de6dbe6f9b6a2a.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/278575">

This morning, Feadship launched a new 75m hull number 703, now named Arrow, at their shipyard in Aalsmeer. 

75m Feadship 703 launched and named Arrow  

The Dutch shipyard, Feadship has given SuperYacht Times an exclusive update on their order book, which consists of 17 projects. It is the first time the shipyard has released their complete order book, with the company usually only announcing their projects when they are in the outfitting stage. However, with more information freely available today than ever before, and a need for more transparency in the business, Feadship has decided to release their full order book.&nbsp;The 17 projects have a total combined length of 1,314.48 metres and the average length of a project on order at Feadship is 77.32 metres.&nbsp;Feadship superyachts are currently being built at three different locations, however, from next year a new yard in Amsterdam <a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/yacht-news/feadship-s-new-amsterdam-shipyard-on-track-for-2019-completion" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">will be opened</a>. Here we look at the projects across all of the different facilities, however, we do not yet know which of the Royal Van Lent projects will be built in the new Amsterdam facility.&nbsp; Kaag (&amp; Amsterdam) – Royal Van Lent Royal Van Lent currently has six projects underway which range from 71.5-metres to 94-metres. <img src="/uploads/store/photo/20281/image/large-92c3a25149ff14bba1e081fb8a6479a9.JPG" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/20281" style="background-color: initial; font-size: 0.85rem;"> 814 – 93m – 2019 Project 814 (pictured above) is a 93-metre motor yacht from the drawing boards of Michael Leach Design, with an interior by Reymond Langton Design. In November 2016 her hull was completed and she is currently <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/46647" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="93m Feadship hull spotted in Holland (2016-11-29 09:10:00 +0100)">inside the Kaag yard</a> and due for delivery in 2019.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/7636/image/large-622df554a36e74b0af067527ef67c440.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/7636"> 815 – 73.6m – 2018&nbsp; The first project to be launched from the Royal Van Lent facility is the 73.6m project 815 (photo above). Her hull was <a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/yacht-news/feadship-hull-815-on-the-move" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">pictured in the Dutch landscape</a> by SuperYacht Times in April 2017. As can be seen on the photos of her hull, she looks like a true adventure yacht and it will be interesting to see what the finished vessel will look like and whether the owner will use her for global exploration adventures.&nbsp;88m Little is known about this project, and judging by her current delivery date it will be a significant time before we will see anything substantial from her.<img src="/uploads/store/photo/20971/image/large-077335697960378d3d8f1f98b5c94288.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/20971" style="background-color: initial; font-size: 0.85rem;"> 818 – 75m – 2019 On Tuesday of this week, SYT captured the <a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/yacht-news/first-look-new-75m-feadship-superyacht-launched" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">launch of the hull of project 818</a> (see photo above). After the launch, she was transported to Kaag for her final fitting before her delivery next year. Although details of the project are scarce, we know that the yacht will have a straight bow. Two further projects are in build at Royal Van Lent with a total length of 165.5 metres. Aalsmeer (Koninklijke De Vries)The Aalsmeer yard of Koninklijke De Vries will deliver eight superyachts between now and 2020 and they will range in length from 47 metres up to 87 metres. The first will be Project 697, which has already been launched. 697 – 47m – 2018 This classically styled Feadship was <a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/yacht-news/feadship-launches-47m-superyacht-project-697" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">launched in October</a> and will be the first Feadship delivery of 2018.
