Classic Yacht or Modern Yacht: Which Would You Choose?

To get a quote for your yacht or boat from Keane Specialty Insurance: https://keanespecialty.com/get-a-quote?pid=DSY In this vlog, we ask a question that many yacht buyers eventually consider: should you buy a classic yacht instead of a modern yacht? Classic yachts have a very particular appeal, but this video is not just about romance, nostalgia, or beautiful design. There are some very practical reasons why a classic yacht can make a lot of sense, especially when you start comparing construction materials, asking prices, range, depreciation, and the realities of yacht ownership. To explore the subject, we look at four classic yachts currently for sale: MADAME THELMA, SULTANA, SUNCOCO and BLUEMAR II. Each of them offers something quite different, but together they help show why classic yachts still have such a loyal following. In this video, we discuss four major advantages of buying a classic yacht, including steel hull construction, value for money, long range cruising, and the fact that many older yachts have already been through decades of refinement and improvement. But classic yacht ownership is not something to approach blindly. We also look at four important things you really need to do before buying one, from speaking with the captain and understanding the yacht’s refit history, to getting expert survey advice and taking an objective view of the purchase. If you are interested in classic yachts, steel yachts, Feadship heritage yachts, CRN yachts, long range cruising yachts, or simply want to understand the difference between older yachts and modern production yachts, this video should give you plenty to think about.
