Looking For Your Next Yacht? Here Are 7 Standout Listings To Consider
Finding the right yacht to own depends more on your priorities and how you'll use it than on size or style. Across the IYC sales fleet, options are plentiful, from iconic designs and futuristic architecture to proven charter platforms and nearly new cruisers.
For some buyers, it comes down to a particular design or interior volume; for others, flexible accommodation or a desire to combine private use with commercial potential may be the priority. Whatever your agenda, here are seven current yachts for sale listings worth having on your radar if you are in the market to buy a yacht:
ZEUS: A Design Icon
The 245’ (75m) ZEUS, built by Germany’s renowned Blohm + Voss, represents a bold approach to superyacht design, combining distinctive architecture with an advanced propulsion system and impressive speed. The exterior challenges traditional expectations, giving the yacht for sale a recognizable profile that sets her apart from more conventional designs.
Continuous upgrades since its 1991 launch add another dimension to the ownership proposition. Accommodation is designed around privacy and space, with capacity for 15 guests and an upper-deck owner's area featuring a private lounge and alfresco dining. European VAT has also been paid, an important consideration for prospective buyers assessing their options in the European market.
THIS IS IT: Futuristics Superyacht Living
THIS IS IT takes a futuristic approach to life on board; the 143’ (44m) Technomar catamaran is instantly recognizable, with a striking exterior that signals a departure from traditional superyacht styling. The multihull platform also offers generous interior volume and expansive living spaces. Designed to accommodate up to 12 guests, the catamaran combines contemporary finishes and natural materials with a strong indoor-outdoor connection.
The owner's suite is particularly notable, spanning two decks and incorporating a private terrace, vertical garden, and skylight. Elsewhere, a large swimming pool, multiple dining and lounge areas, and a dedicated spa and treatment space make entertaining and relaxation central to the experience. A flexible cabin can also serve as a guest room or playroom, depending on needs. Already established as a charter platform, THIS IS IT presents an interesting proposition for buyers drawn to unconventional design and substantial entertaining space.
THEOLINA: Generous Volume And Turnkey Appeal
For buyers prioritizing practicality alongside space, THEOLINA offers a different opportunity. At 141’ (43m), the Codecasa-built yacht delivers the generous volume associated with larger vessels, with six cabins and expansive deck areas that provide plenty of room for both socializing and quieter moments.
A full interior refit in 2022, low main-engine hours, and a history of ongoing maintenance and upgrades contribute to her turnkey appeal. The yacht for sale is available for private ownership or commercial use, offering flexibility for buyers. Outside, multiple deck zones offer space for sunbathing, dining, and extended stays at anchor. Competitively priced, THEOLINA is worth considering for buyers seeking a substantial six-cabin yacht without necessarily moving into a larger size category.
WHITE KNIGHT: A Yacht Built Around The Experience
At 131’ (40m), WHITE KNIGHT emphasizes comfortable living, entertainment, and time spent together. Accommodating up to 12 guests across six cabins, the yacht pairs contemporary interiors with expansive outdoor spaces designed to maximize life on the water.
The sundeck is a natural focal point, with a bar, alfresco dining area, and ample space to lounge in the sun. A fully equipped gym offers another way to spend time on board, while a selection of water toys opens up plenty of opportunities to get out on the water.
Inside, a spacious saloon offers a comfortable place to relax and entertain away from the elements. State-of-the-art media and communications systems further support life on board, whether you want to stay connected or enjoy downtime with family and friends. For buyers looking to purchase a yacht that balances social spaces with facilities for more active days, WHITE KNIGHT provides a well-rounded combination of amenities and accommodation.
ZIA: A Proven Charter Platform
ZIA brings considerable scale to the charter-ready market. The 164’ (50m) yacht has recently been refitted and accommodates up to 12 guests; she combines a spacious, tranquil interior with a flexible six-cabin arrangement comprising four double cabins and two twins.
The owner's suite sits on the main deck and includes a private jacuzzi, offering a more secluded retreat from the yacht's shared living areas. With generous volume, there is plenty of room to relax and entertain, while an extensive collection of water toys and a Technohull Omega 47 chase boat add extra fun.
ZIA's established charter history is another draw for buyers, considering a yacht that could serve both private and commercial purposes; an existing charter background provides a useful starting point for assessing its potential, subject to the relevant operational and commercial considerations.
ELVI: Performance And Flexibility In A 99’ Package
ELVI demonstrates how a smaller motor yacht, at 99’ (30m), can deliver a compelling mix of performance, contemporary design and outdoor living.
Following recent refit works, the yacht accommodates up to 12 guests in a light-filled interior with a flexible layout. The full-beam main suite offers a generous private retreat, while two VIP cabins can connect to create a larger suite - ideal for families or groups.
The shallow draft also makes ELVI well suited to flexible cruising. Already an established charter yacht, it presents an attractive option for a commercially minded owner.
LADY BETTY: Near-New Cruising With Performance To Match
Delivered in 2024, LADY BETTY offers a more recent market entry. The 121’ (37m) Maiora 36 Exuma combines bold exterior styling with a high-performance cruising profile, while her shallow draft provides additional flexibility.
The layout focuses on adaptable living. An expansive deck arrangement includes a versatile alfresco sky lounge that can shift from relaxed daytime use to evening entertaining. Inside, comfort and practicality are key, complemented by a full-beam owner's suite. An elevator connecting the decks adds another useful feature.
With low engine hours and in near-new condition, LADY BETTY may appeal to buyers who want a relatively recent yacht without starting a new-build project. The combination of modern amenities, performance, and flexible spaces offers a different proposition from the more established yachts in this selection.

More From The Blog
Today's yacht buyers are approaching yacht ownership with a completely different mindset. A yacht has now become a more strategic asset, one that should deliver on multiple fronts, from personal fulfillment and financial logic to practicalities.
It is a common perception that a yacht is simply a financial asset and a status symbol to showcase wealth, but many owners today rightfully consider the time, experiences, and lifestyle the most valuable returns on their investment.
Walking onto the docks of a major yacht show for the first time can be genuinely overwhelming. Row after row of yachts lined up, each impressive in its own right, without an obvious place to start. And while a specification sheet will tell you the length, range and cabin configuration, it won't tell you how a yacht actually feels to live aboard, or whether it suits the way you and your family or guests will use it.
