If you're looking to purchase a yacht for 2023, come to Edmiston

Why look anywhere else when you can come to the industry leader?

With 70 yachts over 30m sold in the last two years and one in five yachts over 70m across the whole industry sold by us, Edmiston is undoubtedly one of the strongest brokerage companies in the business.

And when it comes to the ratio of in-house deals, we are proud to say we are the industry leader, with over 60% of our 50m+ deals this year completed in-house – twice that of our closest competitor.

Broker Charles Carveles says that Edmiston’s impressive record for off-market deals shows that we go above and beyond for our clients to ensure all options are explored. He says, “It’s often that the right yacht for you is not in the public eye and our wide network of relationships gives us a competitive edge when trying to find our clients their perfect yacht.”

When it comes to selling yachts, Edmiston has consistently sold our CAs at twice the speed of the industry average.

The fastest selling sailing yacht over 50m we’ve sold so far this year is the pedigree Royal Huisman 57.5m sailing yacht TWIZZLE, which sold in just 116 days.

The 59.1m Oceanco yacht HELIOS yacht was on the market for just six months when we sold her, and she will now be managed for charter by Edmiston.

This full-circle service of yacht management is common at Edmiston – we have also taken on charter management of two of our other recent new construction projects: the 2021 65m International Shipyard Ancona yacht RESILIENCE, which Edmiston managed right through from the build process to her first season of charter, and the 2022 41m Benetti Oasis yacht NORTHERN ESCAPE which has just completed her first charter season for which she was fully booked..

We have also helped clients step up to larger yachts and assisted them in selling their existing yachts.

Broker Alex Busher says, “Our industry-leading professionals have unrivalled market knowledge and well-connected networks to call upon and as full-service providers we provide a seamless and stress-free service to yacht ownership and beyond.

Of course, getting the right people on board the right yachts is key to getting deals done and at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show we organised over 800 yacht visits, but it’s our unparalleled network and connections that get the deals over the line.

Commercial Director Alex Koersvelt says our in-depth real-time knowledge of the sales market and its fluctuations also puts us at an advantage to our competitors.

He says: “We have a wide reach thanks to our global office presence and multi-national team, and our hands-on approach takes Buyers through the process of purchasing a yacht from A to Z.

All of which leads us to say, that when you’re looking for your next yacht you should come to Edmiston, because at Edmiston, we don’t just list yachts, we sell them.
