How Much Does It Cost to Run a Superyacht?

If you’re about to buy your dream vessel, you’ll want to know — how much does it cost to run a superyacht? Owning a superyacht is a dream for many. But while these vessels certainly carry a high up-front cost, anyone investing in a superyacht should know the ongoing costs entailed. So, how much does it cost to run a superyacht? While amounts vary, below is a rough guide of the costs involved. Mooring Costs for Superyachts Even when stationary, superyachts are expensive — and the cost of mooring can be pricey, depending on the location. Some ports, such as Capri, Italy, charge up to €2,900 per night. If you’re looking for a permanent dock, you are looking at hundreds of thousands. Fuel for Your Superyacht A superyacht of about 70 meters needs approximately 500 litres of diesel an hour. And that’s when the vessel isn’t moving, simply running. For a moving superyacht, you’ll be spending about £2,000 an hour to cruise at around 18 knots. This means a cruise of 12 hours will cost you approximately £24,000. Maintenance and Repair Costs for maintenance and repair will vary, depending on the provider you’re using. For example, you can choose to use a quality Alfa Laval service, or you can go for an alternative. Alternative services might seem cheaper at first — however, the costs will rack up once you realise the false economy. Safety, Security and Peace of Mind When factoring in the ongoing costs for your superyacht, don’t overlook security. You have invested in a luxury item and a superyacht isn’t easy to hide. To protect your yacht, you can look into high-tech equipment such as lasers or infrared cameras. Alternatively, you can hire staff to ensure your yacht is protected at all times.
