The price of a yacht varies considerably according to several determining factors. Size is naturally the primary consideration: a 40-foot yacht represents a different investment from a 70-foot model, both in terms of acquisition cost and on-board equipment.

The architecture of the yacht also influences its price positioning. Flybridge models, with their fully appointed upper deck, offer generous living volumes that are reflected in their valuation. The M-Line, with its unique multihull configuration, represents a distinctive value proposition combining exceptional volumes, superior stability and energy efficiency.

Powertrain is another key element in pricing. More powerful engines allow higher cruising speeds to be reached, but directly impact acquisition cost and fuel consumption. Conversely, a powertrain optimised for efficiency prioritises range and reduces running costs.

The level of finish and on-board equipment naturally influences the final price. Fine wood essences, leather upholstery, premium navigation equipment, stabilisation systems, next-generation generators, air conditioning, premium audio systems: each option enriches the on-board experience and is reflected in the price positioning.

Finally, market conditions and availability play their part. A bespoke new yacht, built to your specifications, represents a different investment from a pre-owned vessel available immediately — even with comparable equipment.

A marina berth is one of the most significant expenses for a yacht owner. The price of a berth varies considerably depending on the geographical location and the size of your yacht. A berth on the French Riviera, in Saint-Tropez or Monaco, represents a substantially higher annual investment than a marina on the Atlantic coast or the Spanish Mediterranean.

The size of your yacht directly determines the rate: marinas generally charge per linear metre, with multiplying coefficients applied for above-average beam widths. A 50-foot yacht naturally occupies less space than a 70-foot model, resulting in a proportional price difference.

Some premium marinas include complementary services (clubhouse access, concierge service, enhanced security) within the annual rate, while others charge for these services separately.

A yacht requires regular maintenance to preserve its performance and value over time. Routine work includes the annual antifouling (hull cleaning and antifouling treatment), engine servicing according to the manufacturer's recommended schedule, winterisation if you do not sail year-round, and the periodic replacement of wear parts.

PRESTIGE recommends entrusting the maintenance of your yacht to its network of approved dealers, who have a thorough understanding of the technical specificities of each model and exclusively use genuine parts. This professional servicing guarantees the preservation of manufacturer warranties and protects the resale value of your yacht.
