A sea of styles
A superyacht can be pretty much any style, from modernist to classical, sleek to architectural, fast or slow. But the term super should always apply to quality and ability, so while some superyachts might be focused on speed and port-to-port blasts, and others offering true trans-ocean range, any superyacht worthy of the name should be a highly capable vessel built to the highest standards. This can include environmental matters, with advanced propulsion and ancillary systems to reduce emissions.
There are certain features that evolve as the yacht size increases. For instance, at 30m (98ft), the master stateroom can move from the lower deck to the main deck. At 40m (131ft) or 50m (164ft), tri-deck layouts become possible, adding interior volume as well as upper deck living space and the option of a sky lounge. Above 50m (164ft), full beach clubs are common. Beyond 50m (164ft) and into 60m (197ft) and above, owners can specify features such as helipads and full private owner’s decks.
Buying a superyacht
Buying a new or used superyacht means you are entering into full crew operation, with a dedicated Captain. Buying a new superyacht creates the opportunity for your own unique design, a so-called full custom build. Alternatively, you can opt for a semi-custom build, for a proven exterior design with a highly customised on-board layout and finish. In both cases a designer can be employed to realise your yachting ambitions.
As to which builder you choose, there are literally hundreds of shipyards around the world with superyacht-level capabilities. Which one is right for you will come down to location, cost, delivery times (the builder you like most may have a very long lead time, are you willing to wait?), style, and, of course, reputation.
