Owning a yacht through Yacht Share lets you enjoy all the luxury without the stress. Every yacht is professionally managed, maintained, and prepared so you can simply turn up and step aboard.
Shared yacht ownership is a growing trend in the yachting sector, with more enthusiasts choosing co-ownership over full-time ownership. Yacht Share lets you access this lifestyle with complete transparency and convenience, giving you the perfect balance between freedom and involvement.
But just because you’re hands-off doesn’t mean you’re out of the loop. Owners enjoy full control and insight through the Yacht Share app, tracking maintenance, finances, and operational updates at their convenience.
How Is a Co-Owned Yacht Professionally Managed?
Each yacht in the Yacht Share fleet is overseen by a dedicated Boat Manager who handles every operational detail — from servicing and maintenance to stocking, cleaning, and coordinating any crew.
Your Boat Manager ensures the yacht is always ready for your arrival. You don’t have to chase engineers, book cleaning services, or arrange marina logistics — it’s all handled seamlessly.
Every operational aspect is tracked and managed to the highest standards. From engine checks to hull inspections, your yacht is maintained like a fully private vessel, even though it’s shared.
Still Feel Involved — Without the Work
Many owners want to feel connected to their yacht without handling the day-to-day tasks. That’s where Yacht Share’s transparent management system comes in.
Through the Yacht Share app, you can:
Track upcoming maintenance schedules
View service records and technical updates
Monitor financial reports for full expense transparency
Vote on key decisions affecting your yacht
You remain in control and informed, enjoying reassurance without the stress of managing a luxury vessel.

How Are Turnarounds Between Owners Handled?
Every transition between owners is carefully managed. Each yacht undergoes a complete turnaround service, including:
Professional deep cleaning, inside and out
Fresh linens and towels
Restocking of supplies and amenities
Technical checks and maintenance updates
This guarantees that each owner steps aboard a yacht in pristine condition, ready to enjoy immediately — as if it were their own private vessel.
How Are Costs Shared and Decisions Made?
In co-ownership, operating costs — from mooring and insurance to maintenance and upgrades — are shared proportionally. Yacht Share provides a dedicated Finance Manager, giving detailed expense breakdowns and full transparency.
Major works or upgrades are voted on by owners. This means you retain control over your shared asset while leaving day-to-day administration to professionals.

Yacht Share blends professional management with owner empowerment. You gain the freedom to enjoy your yacht without stress, while retaining tools to stay informed or influence decisions when you wish.
It’s a smarter, simpler way to own a yacht — no hidden surprises, no operational headaches, just luxury on your terms.
