Why New Build Yachts Give The Ultimate Yacht Charter Experience
The yacht charter industry is ever-evolving, offering a wide selection of superyachts to suit every preference and taste. Amongst these, new builds have increasingly stood out as the popular choice for charter. And, for a good reason: when you charter a newly built yacht, not only can you experience a superyacht in its freshest and most impeccable condition, but due to advanced technology, they typically boast enhanced efficiency and performance credentials. Embracing a contemporary design, a charter on a new build will ensure you have an endless list of top-tier amenities and facilities to enjoy.
Whether you are looking to charter this winter in the Caribbean, summer next year in the Mediterranean, or you are seeking out a new year-round destination such as Dubai, our fleet is constantly expanding with an exciting range of newly built yachts ready to charter.
Here, we outline the various reasons why new builds provide the most exciting yachting experience:
Radical Designs
The world of newly built yachts consistently pushes the boundaries of naval architecture and design like never before. Today, there are revolutionary concepts and designs coming to light with incredible features, redefining what’s possible when it comes to superyachts.
Various design features have been gaining traction in recent years, such as the expansive use of glass, floor-to-ceiling windows, and the blending of interior with the exterior space. One particular yacht that has recently turned heads is the 142’9”(43.5m) THIS IS IT. As the largest motor catamaran for charter, the yacht has used an impressive 600 square meters of glass throughout, creating the most striking and unique of design.
Modern Finishes
In addition to exterior designs, the interiors of new-build yachts typically embrace a contemporary and sleek aesthetic. Both high-end materials and innovative textiles that are luxurious and durable are incorporated into superyacht interiors.
Not only do modern finishes enhance the visual appeal, but they also contribute to functionality, durability, and state-of-the-art finishes. The recently delivered and newly ready-for-charter EVA4EVA yacht (145’11”, 44.47m) has been finished with a contemporary design, creating a modern, elegant, and light-filled space. Equally, the 106’4” (32.4m) 50 FIFTY yacht, newly built, also boasts interior areas full of natural light and modernity.
Overflowing Amenities
All charter yachts have plenty of amenities and facilities onboard to enjoy, but newly built yachts raise the bar when it comes to the amount onboard. New charter yachts are equipped with facilities once only seen in luxury resorts on land, from state-of-the-art gyms, high-end spa facilities, expansive beach clubs, impressive toy inventories, and even swimming pools that transform into dancefloors.
Expectations are no longer just met but far exceeded. Imagine a game of basketball onboard, front-row seat watching chefs at a Teppanyaki bar, a dip in a hot and cold plunge pool, cocktails in an observation pod, even a gladiator competition on the inflatable joust area - you can do all that and more on the 154’2” (47m) KING BENJI yacht. Alongside the toys and amenities onboard, a lot of new yachts also have additional chase boats to add to the fun, such as on the 122’5” (37.3m) OCULUS yacht, and its new Axopar 37
Greener Commitments
New-build yachts are in the spotlight when it comes to improving the industry’s sustainability credentials. There is increasing environmental awareness and concern about building more sustainable yachts. In the new build sector, builders combine technological advancements and innovations in green technologies to make yachts more efficient.
These changing priorities are highlighted in various new charter yachts, such as the new sailing yacht from Tramonatana Yachts, the 170’7” (52m) REPOSADO yacht. The yacht commits to eco-friendly practices such as low consumption and sustainable practices, pioneering better standards. Chartering a newly built yacht gives you a glimpse into the future of the yachting world.
Spatial Versatility
New build yachts are designed with flexibility in mind, offering spatial versatility that can cater to the needs of any charter group. These recently delivered yachts typically have deck space that transforms into multi-purpose areas and configurable cabins to adapt to different group sizes and preferences.
Increased volume and clever space utilization mean new builds often feel much larger than the predecessors of similar length, such as the new 93’ (28.35m) AT ONE yacht. At 199 GT, the yacht boasts the biggest volume available for the length. The new charter yacht AKULA, 171’8” (52.32m) , has the most extensive sundeck of any yacht of similar length, giving rise to plenty of entertainment and relaxation space.
True Exploration
In addition to pushing design limits, newly built yachts are expanding the physical boundaries of exploration and adventure, offering a vast range of capabilities. Today, yachts are built with the modern explorer in mind, allowing you to venture further into off-the-beaten-track waters.
Enhanced fuel efficiency and larger capacities mean yachts can undertake longer journeys without refueling stops, opening up the yacht charter itinerary world even further. A standout example is the recently delivered OCULUS, which has an impressive range of 6,000 nautical miles, broadening the scope of any yacht charter itinerary.
